Green fig: leaf, sap and wood

Green fig is the fig of the branch rather than the bowl. It smells sappy, a little bitter and fresh, closer to a garden in July than to dessert. If you want a fig perfume that does not smell sweet, start here.

Launched in 1996 and composed by Olivia Giacobetti, Philosykos is the reference for green fig. It opens on fig and fig leaf. The heart turns to green notes, coconut and fig tree sap, which gives it a milky edge. It dries down on cedar and fig tree wood.

It is unisex. For summer and spring days, the community picks it most often. Most voters call its sillage moderate. Longevity votes lean moderate.

Un Jardin en Méditerranée came out in 2003 and keeps the fig at the back. The top is bergamot, lemon and mandarin orange. The heart is orange blossom and white nerium oleander. Fig leaf sits in the base with red cedar, juniper, pistachio, musk and cypress.

The result is a bright, aromatic garden scent rather than a fruity one. It is unisex and suits the office. Summer is the season voters pick it for most often. Most voters also place both its longevity and its sillage at moderate.

Fico di Amalfi by Acqua di Parma

Fico di Amalfi was launched in 2006. Citrus comes first, with bergamot, citron, grapefruit and lemon. Then fig nectar and fig leaf arrive in the heart, with pink pepper and jasmine. The base is cedar, benzoin and white musk.

Think sunlit citrus with a juicy fig in the middle. It is unisex, and voters most often pick it for day wear. Voters pick it most often for summer and spring. Their votes on longevity and on sillage both lean moderate.

Creamy fig with tea and woods

Here the fig is softer and rounder, and it shares the room with tea. The tea keeps the fruit from turning sweet, and the woods give it a calm, dry finish. These are the fig perfumes to try if Philosykos feels too leafy.

Wulóng Chá was launched in 2015. It opens with bergamot, orange, mandarin orange and litsea cubeba. Oolong tea and nutmeg form the heart. The fig only appears in the base, next to musk, so it reads as a soft, creamy finish after the bright opening.

It is unisex and works well for the office. Most voters rate its longevity long lasting, while its sillage gets a moderate vote. Summer and spring days are where the community wears it most.

How to choose a fig perfume without smelling it

Start with the part of the fig you like. If you want green and fresh, look at the first group. If you want soft and creamy, look at the tea group. If you want warmth, look at the sweet group. The guide on how to choose perfume without smelling it covers the rest of the method.

Then check the season. Community voters most often pick Philosykos, Fico di Amalfi and Un Jardin en Méditerranée for summer. They most often pick Thé Noir 29, Gris Charnel, Ouverture and Scarlet Poppy Intense for fall and winter. Our summer perfumes page lists more warm-weather options.

If you already like Diptyque, the guide to the best Diptyque perfumes is a good next read. If you prefer something skin-close, read about clean perfumes. Most of the perfumes above are unisex, so unisex perfumes worth sharing pairs well with this list.

Try a green fig and a creamy fig in 3ml

The quickest way to learn which fig you like is to wear two. Take one green and one creamy, one on each wrist or on separate days. Philosykos is the green one and Wulóng Chá is the creamy one.

A 3ml of Philosykos costs 12,51 €, and a 3ml of Wulóng Chá costs 12,87 €. A 3ml gives you around 60 sprays, enough to wear it on several days. A decant is filled from the original bottle.

When one fig wins, move up a size. The 10ml size holds around 200 sprays to wear for weeks, and the 30ml holds around 600 to keep.

Често задавани въпроси

What does a fig perfume smell like?
It depends on which part of the fig the perfume uses. Green fig smells of leaf and sap, creamy fig smells soft and milky, and fig in a sweet setting smells warm and jammy. Try one green and one creamy to see which you prefer.
What is the best fig perfume?

Green and citrus figs suit summer, and community voters most often pick Philosykos, Fico di Amalfi and Un Jardin en Méditerranée for it. Fig with black tea, incense or sugar leans towards fall and winter.
How can I try a fig perfume before buying a bottle?
Order a 3ml decant, which gives you around 60 sprays and enough time to wear it on several days. If you like it, the 10ml size holds around 200 sprays and the 30ml size around 600.
