    Real talk

    Fig fragrances usually lean into cream or coconut. This one walks through the actual fig tree, wood, sap, and all. It's the cooler, more austere choice. Quieter than you'd expect from the name.Athenean
    Fig Infusion is not a fig perfume in the traditional sense. The fig here is more of a concept than a literal note, a starting point rather than a destination.Fig Infusion
