The Story
Why it exists.
The beginning
The number 74 on the bottle isn't decoration. It's a date, the year Iceberg was founded, a fashion house built on sportswear that moved from gym to street without losing its cool. Designed by Nathalie Feisthauer and released in 2010, Eau de Iceberg Pour Femme channels that spirit into scent. Blood orange, pear, pineapple. Mediterranean warmth as a mood, not a geography.
What makes this one work is the fig note bridging juicy fruit and warm vanilla. Most fruity-florals jump straight from citrus to sweet. This one lingers in the middle, the fig keeps it grounded, keeps it interesting. The vanilla base doesn't shout either. It whispers. The whole thing has that Mediterranean quality: sunny, lazy, warm. It's not trying to be profound. It's just doing exactly what it should.
The evolution
The opening hits bright and sticky-sweet, blood orange, pear, pineapple all arriving at once, like sunlight on ripe fruit. There's no sharp citrus here, just warmth. Then the pineapple fades first, leaving pear and fig. The fig becomes almost translucent before the florals arrive. Jasmine doesn't shout, it settles. By the time the vanilla arrives, everything has softened into something close and warm. The white woods aren't a statement, they're a whisper that stays. Lasts 6-8 hours on most skin, longer on fabric. The kind of scent that someone standing next to you will notice before anyone across the room.
Cultural impact
Since 2010, this one has found its audience among people who want something fruity and floral without the usual sweetness overload. The fig note gives it a little more complexity than the average fruity fragrance, and the moderate sillage keeps it approachable rather than demanding attention. It's the kind of scent that someone standing next to you will notice before anyone across the room.

The Creator
Nathalie FeisthauerIn the studio Feisthauer favors a linear approach: she isolates a core accord, then builds outward with complementary facets. She often begins with a mineral or green element, adding depth through woods, resins, or subtle spices.
