Fig scented find
This is the fig I've been looking for. After the fiasco with Alluring Fig, all the praise for it having a hint of vanilla, which smelled like burnt plastic on my skin, I was looking for something with a bit longer lasting than my favorite Phylosikos by Diptique. This scent is very similar to Phylosikos but is cheaper (140€ for 100ml compared to 160€ for 75ml), plus it has a higher oil content, so for me it's an all-round win-win.
In my opinion, it's not a purely masculine scent, more unisex if you can handle Diptyque's. The coconut note lifts it a little into a slightly warmer, sweeter scent than just pure green like the other one. It's my boyfriend's favorite scent on me. He has never issued a compliment when I wear it. However, I would test a sample on my skin first before a blind purchase. Because it smells completely different on him, very cheap, like burnt plastic (think Alluring Fig ) compared to my skin.
