  1. A dreamy tea scent, fresh with a touch of sweetness. Fig and tea leaves dominate, accompanied by a very soft cardamom. It reminds me of summer green tea colognes but with more body. It’s relaxing, enveloping, and has a slightly wet note that suits rainy days perfectly.

    I tried Indigo with a Sephora sample without many expectations and was pleasantly surprised. I loved the fresh fruity opening, I clearly noticed the tea, and the longevity was incredible: about two hours of projection and it lasted around seven hours on my skin. I’ll definitely buy the full size without hesitation.

  3. I’m not usually a fan of fruity perfumes unless they’re green, and this one has that aspect. Indigo opens with a moderate blackberry sweetness and a sparkling minty note that fades quickly; I immediately identified it as tea. The sweetness isn’t gourmand or heavy. I don’t detect fig on its own; it blends into that green fruity base. Longevity and projection are medium to low, but the scent is top-tier, very similar to Poets of Berlin. Cardamomo adds a spicy touch, but since I’m a spice bomb fanatic, it doesn’t dominate here. I love it.

    Fruity perfumes aren’t usually my thing unless they’re green, and this one has that aspect. Indigo opens with a moderate blackberry sweetness and a sparkly peppermint-like note that fades quickly; from the start, I identified it as tea. The sweetness isn’t gourmand or heavy. I don’t smell the fig isolated; it blends into that green fruity base. Longevity and projection are medium/low, but the scent is top-notch, very similar to Poets of Berlin.

  5. Sephora sent me several samples and I fell in love; I need this in my life. It’s sweet, fresh green, and has a spicy touch—a true marvel.

  7. I loved it on an older lady, but it was too potent for me. I gave it to my husband and it suits him perfectly. They say it’s unisex, but to me it feels more masculine: a strong, original scent that lasts forever and leaves a trail. I recommend it if you’re looking for something different, but test it before buying.

  8. When I first smelled it on an older woman, I loved it, but when I tried it on myself, it seemed too strong. I gifted it to my husband and it fits him perfectly. They say it’s for men and women, but I see it as more masculine. It’s a strong, original, very long-lasting scent with great projection. I recommend it if you like unique perfumes, just try it before buying.

  9. It’s completely different from what’s on the market: bold, mysterious, with wood and fig notes. It’s relatively sweet, but not in the traditional way—it has a subtle, hard-to-define sweetness. Perfect for going out at night, though it works during the day too. Given its intensity, it’s better suited for special occasions rather than everyday wear. Longevity is excellent; it lasts me about 8 to 9 hours, depending on individual chemistry. In Mexico, the price is moderate, even cheap compared to Chanel, YSL, or Jo Malone, and it comes in various sizes. I recommend it to anyone tired of the overly sweet scents in the new Miss Dior versions.

  11. Yesterday, I visited Sephora in my city for the first time, and the staff was amazing. They let me test several perfumes on blotter paper until my nose got overwhelmed—of course, they offer coffee beans to refresh your senses. Toward the end, they showed me Indigo, first on paper and then on my skin. Wow, I absolutely loved it: fruity opening with fig, followed quickly by a spicy note. It feels incredibly rich yet subtle sweetness, nothing cloying. It’s one of those scents you don’t want to stop smelling. Excellent longevity, lasting over 12 hours, and I could still detect it the next day, though less intensely. It’s an eau de parfum, highly recommended. They even gave me a decant, which I need for my collection. If you get the chance, try it; you won’t regret it. Greetings from Guadalajara, Mexico.
