Fig perfume recommendations?

[IntheSnowySnowyMountains]

I'm looking for a fig perfume that lasts well. I have a tester of Diptyque Philosykos which I love, but am disappointed that it doesn't seem to last well on me. I have a small bottle of the Jo Malone Fig and Cassis from a while ago, which I also like, but it's not much better. Any suggestions welcome... it's currently my favourite smell!

(Apologies if I have missed existing threads - I feel I may have read one, or even posted on one, but I searched with no luck.)

It's my favourite scent too. I wear Mulberry Fig by Floris.

'Debaser' by DS & Durga is a green fig with a coconut drydown, and it lasts.
'The Matcha' by le labo has a strong fig note.

I really like Ortigia Fica (fig) range, the smell is amazing.

Thierry Mugler Womanity has strong notes of fig, a Zara one Balade de Figuier would also be worth a try.

Love a fig perfume, Bois Naufragé is one of my favourites.

Roger&Gallet Fleur de Figuier. It is my springtime perfume 🙂

My daughter had a lovely one from Marks and wasn’t expensive

I've got Philosykos in a black bottle which is the Eau de Parfum, it lasts longer than the EDT.

I love Le Labo The Matcha.

M&S Wild Fig is a tenner (EDT but for a tenner, spray it on every 10 mins...)

Thanks for all the replies and suggestions! How on earth do I choose???

I hadn't come across the Bloom site, but I love it and will probably order some samples from there. I think I am probably looking for a green/woody fig rather than a sweeter one. Bois Naufragé looks very promising too!

Will try to get a sample of Thé Matcha too... have tried a few Le Labo perfumes from Liberty advent calendars and they do last well (and I liked Thé Noir!).

@ShortColdandGrey I've tried the Roger and Gallet hand cream in that scent but not the perfume. I don't know why but to me fig feels autumnal!

@millymoo1202 @LordEmsworth I only see Warm Fig on the M&S site... is it that one? I can't get to a store sadly.

@Rina66 I thought about the Philosykos EDP but finding the price hard to justify (wish there was a smaller size!).

Vilhelm Parfumerie Purple Fig?

This one! I love it!

Purple Fig sounds amazing although some of the prices are getting a little scary now!

L’Artisan Parfumer Premier Figiuer. I love it.

Oliver bonas fig and tonka....really affordable and do hand creams etc in the same scent

carthusia forget me not

Another vote for Ortigia Fica

Agree about the cost of perfume now, I was going to treat myself to Guidance by Amouage but it's £320 - I just don't know if I can justify that, but I suppose that's a whole other thread!

Bloom is fabulous, the yearly subscription is much better value than the individual sample sets and you learn a lot about perfume using it. You get a discount if you buy a full size bottle of one you've had a sample of but considering you end up wanting loads of perfumes I'm not sure it's that much of a bargain😁, think DH just bought me perfume requests for a couple of years after I did the subscription.

The Perfume Society does good sample boxes, and you tend to get more perfume than Bloom sends you.

Ah yes sorry, Warm Fig!

I also have Purple Fig but I prefer The Matcha - it's more subtle and creamy. Same price bracket I am afraid...

Debaser by D S Duraga is amazing and really lasts. All their fragrances are complex and interesting.

I don't mind spending a bit, I just don't want to buy something expensive that I can't try first. Although of course the postage adds up if you end up buying samples from different places. Access to shops with testers is limited.

@JaninaDuszejko thanks for the info about the Bloom subscription and Perfume club boxes. I would love a Bloom subscription but I'm in France and the postage outside the U.K. is horrendous! However DH will be in the U.K. soon so I thought I'd take the opportunity to order some samples. Sadly the Fantastic Figs collection in the post by @BeetledBrow is out of stock and the other fig collection is £55, which again is a bit steep. So I might just pick a few individual ones (Bois Naufragé is already in my basket!).

@localnotail and @BeaLola - is the orange blossom in the Ortiga Fico very prominent? I like it but sometimes find it a bit overpowering. A few online places sell that here, and there's a 10ml size, so not too sad to miss the Liberty discount.

Will look up L'artisan perfumier and Debaser too. And will probably get DH to pick up the M&S one for good measure!

I’m puzzled - why are you looking for UK sources if you’re in France???

Anyway … There are three Santa Maria Novella stores in Paris (if you’re passing by) where you could try Lana, which is apparently fig leaf.

Thanks BeetledBrow - will add that one to the list! (Sorry for the confusion. I was just looking for perfume suggestions, not necessarily sources - although I was very happy to have your link to Bloom and will definitely order some samples.)

Acqua di parma - Fico di Amalfi is my favourite but a cheaper one I wear often and is Roger and Gallet - Fleur de figuier.
