Purplebird has it right with real and raw, however, I think this adds to its sensuality. My favorite go to for a sensual summer scent that is totally unisex. I love the richness it has along with the fresh green notes, a great contrast. Longevity is great for eau de toilette, I've smelled it the next morning. If you don't mind coconut and you're a fan of green scents, you'll probably like this one.

The first notes sweet fig leaf, and a bit floral made a good sense but with the rise of coconut which is really very artificial the magic disappears. Without coconut it would be amazing. Still appealing though.

The first time I wore this, my wife thought it smelled of coconut matting. The second time I wore this, I thought it smelled of coconut matting. Good if you want to smell like a doormat.

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. My only disappointment is I don't think it's "me". I'll keep a decanted sample around to revisit occasionally ~ it's very fine!

A fresh, light, but strong fig leaf fragrance. Green and woody, with plenty of the realistic, pungent "sap." This smells like summer, like walking through an overgrown garden, snapping twigs and stems on the way, releasing the almost sneezy aroma of weeds and new plant growth. I cannot call it classicly "pretty" because it smells real and raw. I will say that it is beautiful because it smells wild and natural. Only at the end do I finally receive a more traditional perfume-like note of light, sweet powder. This fig-leaf note is revolutionary to the green family of fragrances.

I ended up buying this fig over Philosykos (even though that scent is fantastic) because I was looking for a warmer fig for winter, something without Philo's cedary sharpness. This scent is very green, but it is also sweet and milky, and approaches a gourmand fragrance. Sometimes smelling it actually makes me hungry. As much as I like this, it never really "settles" into my skin, as I prefer a fragrance to do. It always smells exactly the same the entire day, like something that is on top of my skin rather than emanating from it. I still give it a thumbs-up but it is not the staple I thought it would be.
