What do reviewers say about Figue Barbare and Hummingbird?
Figue Barbare leans into the green, almost vegetal side of fig rather than the sweet fruit. That makes it divisive, some expect dessert, get a garden instead.Figue Barbare
This is a clean, approachable scent that reads as effortless elegance. The honey note is the star, but it stays away from being cloying. It hums with quiet confidence.Hummingbird
