   |  Starts off verdantly green and vegetal but gets almond-like with a nutty undertone. This is my very first encounter with the fig note and I'm glad it's positive. The only problem I have with PREMIER FIGUIER is its sillage or rather the lack of one though I've come to expect that from L'Artisan. But this is more than made up by the sandalwood drydown. Overall, an interesting rather grown-up take of the green genre. 06 November 2009 |
 | This is a youthful, cheery, sappy-green sort of scent. It has a very green fig, leafy opening. This quickly is followed by some good wood and bark notes. The coconut adds a creamy, tropical aspect to the scent. This settles into a creamy woody scent, with continued hints of green fig and a developing lovely sandalwood note. It is only slightly sweet, so it is suitable as a unisex scent. 17 August 2009 |
   | I had already fallen in love with figs before I came to this classic - my becnmark was the equally satisfying Miller Harris Figue Amere. Figs do well on me - this one in particular...it is creamy and vigorous at the same time. Figgy from the start with a nice green overtone and hint of citrus over woods...wonderful dry down and respectable longevity if a bit short on sillage. 04 July 2009 |

|  I've had the same experience with several perfumes from L'Artisan: weird, marvelous openings that disappear almost instantly into an irritatingly generic scented-candle type of dry-down. This one starts with a bizarrely realistic green top -- sneezy, bitter notes milky sap and crushed leaves -- and ends up smelling like fresh laundry. My favorite of the samples I've tried so far (Dzing!, Tea for Two, Passage d'Enfer) but still nothing special. Right now, a little disappointed with the whole line. 23 June 2009 |

| First whiff to the last lingering note, this fig fine! So many reviewers have described this fragrance perfectly. For me, an underlying musty green adds the raw & natural vibe. The drydown is sweet powdery sandalwood which the fig note accompanies the entire way through. It is an awesome scent. I think the blending of notes here is brilliant. In fact, it's very fine! 17 June 2009 |

| If you have ever had the pleasure of burning the now defunct Aromatherapy of Rome figuier candles, you will know exactly this great fragrance from L'Artisan. It is a green fig and creamy candle wax fragrance that is refreshing and comforting at the same time. No adolescent, syrupy, fruit...just the beautiful scent of fig leaves on a sunny day. 16 March 2009 |
