... this saying refers only to the manageable list of ingredients, as the longevity of Fig Leaf & Sage is exceptionally good on me.
Finally, a spicy, aromatic scent that comes across pleasantly herbaceous but not bitter.
So, in the best sense unisex, as it will not scare off the feminine wearer. Nor will it deter the emancipated gentleman who appreciates the softness of the fragrance.
Bergamot and lemon provide subtle freshness and harmonize well with the mild sage-thyme blend. The fig leaf adds a rich green note that gives the fragrance further distinctiveness without weighing it down.
Nevertheless, Fig Leaf is not lacking in expressiveness - with a tendency towards nature and yet a touch of landlord/landlady elegance.
A Burberry trench, adorned with dog hair, paired with rubber boots would suit its appearance well.
The fragrance harmonizes perfectly with my dog-walking outfit, in any case. Or it accompanies me on the bloodless fox hunting ride - of course without real foxes.
