🌇 The Inspiration: The Evening Glow
As the sun sets, the rocks release their heat. Sunset Benzoin Fig captures the warmth of the evening. It takes the fig note and dips it in warm amber and resin. It is the perfect transition from a beach day to a night out.
🧪 The Olfactory Architecture: Amber and Fruit
The top notes are still Citrus, but they are muted. The focus is on the base: a rich blend of Benzoin Resin, Vanilla, and Amber. The Fig note becomes jammy and dried, like fruit preserved in sugar.
🌿 Raw Material Sourcing: The Resins
-
Benzoin Siam: A balsamic resin that smells like vanilla and almonds.
-
Labdanum: The classic amber note, warm and leathery.
-
Dried Fig Accord: Richer and darker than fresh fig.
🧠 The Scent Psychology: Intimacy
Warm amber scents signal intimacy and relaxation. Sunset Benzoin Fig creates a cozy aura. It makes people want to sit closer to you.
🇬🇧 The London Lab Technology
We used Resin-Infusion to bind the fruity notes to the heavy base. This allows the fig character to persist deep into the dry down, creating a scent that lasts all night.
✨ The Application Ritual

Where to spray: Chest and inner elbows.
