Not my cup of Fig!!
I seen a few reviews of people and reviewers praising this fragrance, so finally bought a bottle.. wish I had not!!! I love the smell of Fig trees and Figs and could see how it could be used in a nice Freshy that would be a heavy weight in crowd pleaser!!
THAT IS NOT THIS!!! It smells nothing like FIG!!! Fig trees grow Wild where I live even lived under a Giant Fig tree growing up for a time (homeless Children so we camped a lot!!)
as bad as that sounds I love Fig Trees and well versed how they smell!!
I can't stand the smell of this smells closer to a grapefruit style of Citrus that got lost in the fridge, or maybe a bag of rotten Oranges with a ting of creamy and again that Grapefruit sharp bitter ready to spear your Nose Hairs!!! as it plunders your nostrils of all that is Holy so it can strangle your Sinus glands! Imagen those old cheesy westerns where the Villon is strangling a damsel in destress as she screams for her Cowboy Hero to come to answer her cries for help, as the Villon removes one hand again and again to smack her for every cry for help, she is your Sinus glands the Villon is Figue, and the Hero Cowboy got held up in a game of poker at the saloon (The Damsel is BLEEEEEP)
How ever not all is lost it seems to smell much better in winter and along side a sweet caramelly rubberesk resin-ness like the dry down of Ard Al Zaafarans Mukhallat Kalaam which also has a smoky Vanilla smell to it
Thats right use in winter and layer it one side this frag the other side the other (not sprayed in the same place type layering but multi faceted style)
