  Second airport test of the 2022 vacation season. The opening is marked by an underripe fig, very soft and transparent (as mentioned before), which smells like those expensive facial creams advertised as made with French thermal water and unicorn tears (but they smell exquisite). Once it settles, it immediately brings to mind Un Jardin en Méditerranée by Hermès, but in a more decidedly feminine and less woody version: the scent of the fig plant more than the fruit, accompanied by a subtle floral-aquatic accord. The late dry-down is dominated by the lotus note. The perfume projects at first, but after half an hour it stays close to the skin, and it didn’t last more than 5 hours. Like most Jo Malones, I found it a pleasant and informal perfume for spring days, leaning heavily toward the feminine side. I see it as perfect for work, even though I was heading on vacation. Pleasant: 7/10 Interesting: 4/10 Versatile: 7/10 Original: 4/10

  I loved it!!! It’s the perfect fig—sweet, fruity, slightly creamy but always fresh. It reminds me of Fico di Amalfi, but less unisex and more feminine. The lotus flower isn’t too aquatic or loud; it just adds freshness and transparency.

  Two notes and a great result. The fig that has fascinated me the most so far, with the exception of my beloved Hermina. A spectacular lotus with the creaminess of a luxury cosmetic, paired with a fig loaded with fructose and juice that finishes with a fig tree trunk scent and aquatic hints in the distance. And a decent longevity, lasting over 5 or 6 hours. Stunning.
