Fig Aftelier

I don't really know what black figs are, but this intense spicy note in Fig must come from somewhere, and I suspect the black part of those figs.

This scent clearly reminds me of winter fruit bread, that dense, heavy sweetness full of dried fruits and mysterious spices. It seems to me that this winter-Christmas association I have here is closely linked to the pine needle oil, which I can really perceive when I sniff closely.

Fig is surely a great scent for the Christmas season or, more generally, wintertime: drinking mulled wine under the fir branches, eating gingerbread by the fireplace... feeling warm and cozy while the world outside disappears under a thick white blanket.
