Jarek Report post Posted March 15 (edited) Quote Bold, bright mandarin paired with the sweet, sensual earthiness of fig. This was a frimp two orders ago, from the lab. Not something I would've gotten on my own, as I'm less likely to try foodie scents, but thanks to The Apothecary and Poor Monkey and a few others, I have come to love the lab's fig note. This scent is largely about the fig to me, although there is also plenty of juicy mandarin orange mixed in. In the imp it's sweet and I can smell the mandarin a little bit more, perhaps. Wet on my skin it's earthy, almost spiced smelling fig brightened up with some very juicy mandarin. The scents play well together and I really like the fig, of course. I do wish there was a little bit more of something else, I think, so I might try layering this with something else but I'm not sure what yet. It might be nice with The Apothecary, actually, or Yggdrasil. I want to try it with herbs. Medium throw, to lower throw. Quite strong up against my nose, doesn't seem to travel very far, though occasionally my sleeve will block the path. I get slightly less mandarin from further away. Anyways, initially this was a like in my spreadsheet, but now it's a love. I quite enjoy it. Although I have since others with fig, it's wholly different from anything else I have. I'm still going to try it layered with something with herbs, but I hope to one day get a bottle. Edited March 16 by Jarek Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
