Evolution of Little Fig Tree.

Fresh fig and apple blossom are both apparent from the first spray. This fig is not the heady, over-ripe mid-summer fruit, but is still-firm and ready to pick. Mandarin and nectarine contribute a fleshy sweetness to a slightly citrus-accord and blackcurrant delivers a lively spark. The warmth gradually intensifies and expands, as vanilla, honey and jasmine notes seep through the lighter notes. Saffron and almond continue to add nuances as a touch of heady tuberose completes the rounded fig. The deep, woody notes in oudh a green vetiver together add the cool, leaf and bark notes. This maintains a subtle character, for wearing during the day, or night, whilst still remaining complex and sensual. Another perfume with a similar balance of fruit/gourmand is Dhoon Glen. For a deeper, richer fruit, Elderberry delivers.
