Purple Fig

Purple Fig from Vilhelm Parfumerie, composed by Jérôme Epinette in 2016, is a green fig fragrance with a woody backbone. It is crisp and leafy, focusing on the green side of the fig tree rather than its sweetness.

Lemon gives a bright, fresh lift. Fig brings a soft, milky fruitiness, while black currant and currant leaf add a tart, green and slightly sharp note. Galbanum and angelica provide a bitter, earthy greenness, and cyclamen a watery, floral freshness. Cypress, cedar and Virginia cedar form a dry, resinous woody base.

The profile suggests a fresh, natural-feeling scent. Worn by anyone, it would suit spring and summer days, the office and outdoor walks, for someone who loves green fig and leafy notes with a dry woody finish rather than a creamy or sweet fig. The overall mood is cool and garden-like.
