Figs on the seaside
The name and the beautiful opaque aqua tone of the bottle are perfect for this scent. It's an aquatic, salted, mineral-infused fig scent. If salty fig makes you think of something like Mugler's Womanity, no, that's not what this is. Hydro Figue is cleaner and greener, and the fig in it feels more dense and milky instead of fruity. I love the slight spicy warmth that cardamom and saffron add to the scent.
My main criticism is that this has even more interesting and beautiful notes listed that I don't really detect. The way it is, it's very focused on the fig and the salty aquatic accord. Where are the vanilla, benzoin and musk, the tuberose and the fresh citruses? Why are they so subtle? I think if these were more noticeable, the scent would really come alive and become more unique and interesting.
I think if you're really into lighter fragrances and fig, you might love this, but if you're like me and usually prefer warmer and sweeter fragrances, it might be more of a like.
