By the editors · 2 min readFig leaf opens against bergamot — that distinctive milky-green Mediterranean quality that always makes a perfume feel like a holiday. The pairing reads sun-warmed rather than crisp; fig leaves crushed in summer heat.
Sandalwood in the heart and cedar in the base anchor the composition into a creamy-dry woody register. Spare composition by design: the fig and the wood are doing all the work, with no embellishment. Suited to summer days, casual and outdoor wear. The kind of perfume that smells expensive without being aggressive about it; restraint as a stylistic choice.
