What does Fig-Tea (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays present through the day without filling a room. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards leisure, daily and office wear. It reads mostly feminine, though some voters find it masculine.

The top opens bright and fruity with orange and osmanthus absolute. In the heart, jasmine, coriander and davana add a green floral note with a touch of spice. The base of gaiac wood, maté absolute and amber softens it and dries down woody and warm.
