Real talk
Fig, coconut, and lavender together create something creamy and floral with an edge that can read as soapy depending on concentration and formulation.Smoky Fig
This fragrance does not announce itself. Bergamot and vetiver give it structure, but the florals keep it from feeling austere. It works best when you want to smell present without screaming.Bal d'Afrique
