What wearers say
“The opening is a bit of an alcohol-citrus blast, then settles to a fig and citrus blend. Light and refreshing. The vibe I get with this one: Boutique hotel on the Amalfi coast. Longevity is about 4 hours. Projection is mild, and sillage is mild-moderate. Good office or casual daily fragrance. Definitely unisex.Overall, not my favorite, but a nice addition to round out the collection.”
“The fig opening in this is peak but unfortunately only lasts for about an hour. Super fresh, clean and great summer scent that uplifts me and transports me to the shores of Amalfi. This stuff is great for teenagers and young men and is perfect on a hot summer day. There are mixed reviews regarding the longevity and for me this sits well with my skin and lasts over 6+ hours. 8/10 just wish silage was better.”
“The opening is a blast of sweet citruses, really juicy, but they only lasts for a few minutes. After that, it transitions to the scent of fig leaves, like the smell you get when walking near a fig tree. In the late drydown, I mostly get some floral musk. The sillage and staying power could be better, but the scent is unique and extremely good.”
