Essential Parfums - Fig Infusion in general
Composed by Nathalie Lorson and inspired by a sunlit afternoon under a fig tree in the south of France, Fig Infusion opens with a larger-than-life fig note brightened by juicy mandarin and clementine, avoiding the overly green, sap-heavy character common to many fig fragrances. A floral heart of freesia and orange blossom is deepened by a smooth ribbon of Sri Lankan black tea, giving the fig a fresh, tea-parlour warmth rather than a sharp citrus edge. The base wraps everything in soft Virginian cedarwood and creamy sandalwood, rounded out with balmy benzoin for a cocooning, comforting finish. Formulated at 17% concentration with 92% natural ingredients, versatile daily-wear fig — a great recommendation for anyone who find greener fig scents like Philosykos too sharp and want something creamier and more approachable instead.
The Fragrance Folio's take on Essential Parfums - Fig Infusion
If Fico di Amalfi is a juicy ripe fig, then fig infusion is fig while it's still ripening. A lot fresher because of the citrus and a bit more herbal because of the tea. Performance is quite mild but it is an amazing scent if you like citrus scents but would like it to be a bit more on the fruity and green side.
