Fig Fiction a cheap fig
I bought Fig Fiction because I have developed an absolute obsession for fig fragrances. How did that happen? At Ludwig Beck in Munich, I sniffed through the Diptyque fragrances and got stuck on the beautiful Philosykos. Since I could not store at that time unfortunately in this price range I have asked around and got stuck on this alternative.
To take it right away I have now both fragrances. And also just in front of me. The Fig Fiction is definitely a nice fig fragrance that I could wear every day especially if you consider the price. In direct comparison, the Philosykos (EdP) is much more pleasing and better tuned. Both fragrances have green notes that are a bit scratchier and stricter in the Fig Fiction. Also, the shelf life is not as long with Fig Fiction. Which is of course no wonder with the Eau de Toilette.
"Green fig leaves swaying in the warm evening" is written on the bottle and sums it up well for me. For me, it is exceptional but needs improvement. He has my greatest need for fig fragrances however well satisfied. :-)

Youthful shower gel
When I smell this fragrance, I immediately think of shower gel and spring/summer. It starts off very floral and becomes creamier over time. The narcissus is very delicate and the almond milk is definitely more of a lotion if you know what I mean....

Addictive in the fall
If you like boozy fragrances that are wonderfully embracing and come with a good portion of vanilla, I can only recommend this little treasure. For the price, you really can't go wrong. The longevity is ok and in this price category it is not a problem...
