Description

For our Autumn 23 fragrance, we collaborated with chef and farmer Julius Roberts - when visiting his Dorset farm in early autumn, he showed us a dazzling fig tree, the fruits long gone but the leaves still bold and bright. We knew this had to be at the heart of the fragrance we were making together. But fig is a ‘mute’ plant - you cannot extract its essence. We explored this with Elodie, our nose, and after six months of exacting work we created a natural fig accord. Blackcurrant bud, osmanthus and petitgrain bring the essential fruity facets, while red cedar captures the wood of the tree's branches. Davana and galbanum are spiced and herbal, and violet leaf carries the delicate florality of the scent. Finally, tonka bean brings vanilla sweetness, its 90% coumarin content gesturing to the jammy quality of ripe figs. The result is rich and intoxicating, a glorious celebration of the fig leaf.
