My personal 10
I really liked the EDP, but the fig in it was always a bit too sweet for me and the durability on my skin isn't the greatest.
For a comparison, I bought the extrait to make a purchase decision. The extrait costs a good 40 euros more.
As you would expect, the two fragrances share the same DNA, so if you want the more multi-faceted fragrance with better longevity and projection, you should definitely go for the extrait and pay the extra price.
The fragrance opens with cardamom before the fig reveals itself.
I also get a pleasant peppery top note.
The fig is less sweet than in the edp, it seems more mature, more malty, darker and gets creamier and sweeter as it progresses. I have to be honest, I give it a 10 because I want to honor the craftsmanship of this fragrance.
I have never experienced that a fragrance can change so intensively over time and - until it becomes skin-deep - actually becomes rounder, more pleasant and sweeter.
Towards the end, a light vanilla also joins in.
Some real magic has been done here.
It is intense, but still super wearable for different occasions. Well-dosed, it is even suitable for the office.
The sillage is great, I notice the fragrance in the air for a long time and it even lasts a few days on my clothes, where it even continues to project.
For a niche fragrance, the price is also really good, if you look carefully you can get 100ml for €180. The fragrance is very productive and just a few sprays are enough.
Finally, I would like to say that I see the EDP as more suitable for women, as the fig is a little fresher/sweeter and more playful.
The extrait, on the other hand, is more for men because it is a little edgier at the beginning and the sweetness is a little more restrained as described.
But of course everyone has to judge for themselves, both fragrances are ingenious and stand out from the mass of fragrances with their unique DNA.
