🍃 The Inspiration: The Shade of the Tree
Before you see the fruit, you smell the leaves. Large, green, and coarse, fig leaves have a unique scent: bitter, green, and slightly coconutty. Green Fig Leaf explores this botanical side. It is the scent of snapping a fresh branch—raw, sap-filled, and incredibly cooling.
🧪 The Olfactory Architecture: Crushed Greens
This is a sharp, bracing scent. It opens with Galbanum and Fig Leaf sap. It smells intensely green and photo-realistic. The heart softens slightly with Violet Leaf and Green Mandarin. The base is a clean, dry Cedarwood that evokes the bark of the tree.
🌿 Raw Material Sourcing: The Green Gold
-
Fig Leaf Absolute: Captures the bitter, green, slightly milky scent of the raw leaf.
-
Galbanum Resin: Intense greenness that smells like cut grass and peppers.
-
Virginian Cedar: A dry, pencil-shaving wood note that provides structure.
🧠 The Scent Psychology: Focus and Renewal
Green scents are linked to alertness and mental clarity. Green Fig Leaf acts as a "reset" button for your nose and your mind. It cuts through the heat and humidity, helping you focus.
🇬🇧 The London Lab Technology
We utilized Chlorophyll-Extraction Tech to highlight the "snappy" green facets. We removed the lactonic (milky) molecules typically found in fig scents to ensure this remains crisp, dry, and purely botanical.
✨ The Application Ritual
When to wear: Hot days, office work, or outdoor hikes.
Where to spray: Chest and hair.
Style pairing: Crisp whites, botanical prints, minimalist fashion.
💭 From the Perfumer's Diary
"This is my 'anti-sweet' fig. It's for people who love nature but hate sugar. It smells like a greenhouse in July—humid, green, and alive."
