Figo Fogo

Benamôr · 2022

Fresh · Green · Fruity

Benamôr Figo Fogo is a fresh, green, creamy-woody unisex scent built around fig, suited to spring and summer days and relaxed everyday wear. It opens with fig leaf, followed by fig wood in the heart. The base of white cedar and musk softens the scent and ties it to a creamy woodiness. The fruity and sweet sides stay in the background, while the fresh, green impression leads. Voters find both longevity and sillage moderate. Most pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and business are the occasions named most often. Feminine and masculine votes run close, so it sits comfortably on either side. Diptyque Philosykos (Eau de Toilette) and Profumum Roma Ichnusa have a close profile.

Vervena Vera

7.7

Benamôr · 2022

Fresh · Citrus · Green

Benamôr Vervena Vera is a unisex fragrance that sets the fresh, green side of citrus on a sweet base. Its longevity and sillage are moderate: it neither fills the room nor disappears quickly. Voters choose it most for leisure, daily wear and the office, and some also for sport. It sits comfortably between masculine and feminine. The opening of lemon leaf, mandarin orange and bergamot is bright and lightly spicy. Vervain carries the green note through the heart. At the base, vanilla, amber and benzoin soften the scent and sweeten it. Tom Ford Neroli Portofino (Eau de Parfum) and Jo Malone Earl Grey & Cucumber have a close profile.

Iris Suprema

6.8

Benamôr · 2024

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Benamôr Iris Suprema is a fresh, floral and powdery unisex scent that leans towards spring and summer days, and towards daily and office wear. Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily and leisure wear lead the occasions, with business close behind. It opens with bergamot, mandarin orange and violet leaf, a citrusy, slightly green freshness. In the heart, lavender, violet and orris root add a soft, powdery floral note, and vetiver, musk and cedar give it a woody base. Guerlain Eau de Cashmere and Floris Jermyn Street have a close profile.
