Fig Leaf Demeter Fragrance for women and men

Fig Leaf actually has some complexity, for a Demeter - others I've tried are generally one-note, but Fig Leaf has some development.

It opens with a bright green, leafy smell that reminds of geranium leaves more than anything. I've never smelled a real fig leaf, so I couldn't tell you how authentic it is, but it is a convincing leafy note that smells natural.

Over the course of about an hour, the green fades and the sweet figgy scent emerges, then comes to the forefront. For the next hour or so, the fig stays, while a coconut note slowly starts to appear. The fig + coconut lasts about another hour, for a total of about three hours. (As with most fragrances, it lasts longer on clothers than on skin.)

All in all, it's very good for a Demeter pick-me-up cologne. I wear it often on the weekends to run errands or to visit family members. It's an office-appropriate scent to my nose, too.

I like this. A subtle figgy scent and indeed the only fig based perfume I have ever tried. I combined the body lotion, shower gel and spray as my holiday scent in spain last year :) Lovely probally would not buy again but it invokes many happy memories.

I initially bought Fig Leaf on an impulse after I swapped my bottle of Premier Figuier Extreme. I thought PFE had too much coconut and other fruit accords in it. Fig leaf is a decent Demeter fragrance but like others in this line, its longevity is poor and I think it actually has too much coconut and not enough green. It is however a nice fig fragrance. I only wear it when I want to wear fig but don't want to use up my Philosykos or my favorite, Premier Figuier.

It looks like this could be a less expensive alternative for Diptyque Philosykos!, but it's just missing the woody quality. It'd be interesting to see if this were layered with another woodsy scent by Demeter. Mixing and layering is just fun, and Demeter seems to aim for that.

This is one of the better fragrances from Demeter. Although it smells like figs, it seems much more complex than just that.

Fig Leaf is a wonderful, juicy and somewhat fresh scent with a beautiful feminine vibe. In my first year of living away from home, I lived in an old house with a fig tree out the back. I have beautiful memories of lying out on the back porch in Summer feasting on figs.

The minute I smelt this fragrance, it took me back to those happier times. Fig Leaf has an interesting tang to it throughout, however closer to the drydown the scent becomes a little powdery and milky.

Unfortunately the scent doesn't last long. Even on clothes it didn't want to hold.

SWeet,FRuity,Figgy.Light,clean,mild.Sadly,these fumes r gone in 2 or 3 hrs.You have to reapply a lot. This is more akin to a very light body spray.REfreshing tho!!

Fig Leaf is sweet and delicate, such a pity that it disappears so quickly. Subtle everyday scent.

Beautiful fig fragrance. Unfortunately - it stays on the skin only about two-three hours
