What does Fig Man smell like?

It opens with bergamot and cardamom for freshness, while fig adds a fruity sweetness. In the heart, violet, fig leaf and marine notes push it towards a green, aquatic feel. The base of Paraguayan gaiac wood, tonka bean and Indonesian patchouli gives it a woody footing, with the sweetness kept soft.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office lead the occasions. It leans masculine, though a good share of voters read it as feminine. Azzaro Chrome Azure and Rabanne Invictus (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
