Les Fleurs: Fleur de Figuier Molinard for women

This a wonderful fragrance with fig leaf and galbanum as the most prominent notes.Very refreshing.
As all Molinards, it has an amazing sillage and longevity and it's a very clear and transparent scent, not thick. I noticed that a lot of Molinards from this series smell like the drydown of many expensive and rich perfumes, so they would be great for layering and add some depth to other fragrances, especially the onces than are in need of sillage or longevity boost.

Just received the perfume last week and started using it today. I wanted something fresh and long lasting for spring/ summer. I had been using the 'Ambre' for winter and was very happy with the spicy, amber scent and it was long lasting ( up to 4-5 hours) which is great for an eau de toilette.

So far a get a woody crispness - cant say I pick up any orange but it is still cool here and as it warms up it may play a differently with my body chemistry.Not sure if I like/ dislike at this stage - will keep you posted, but it is long lasting too and doesnt go sweet.

I found this to be a very strong fig scent. People told me that it's an extraordinary smell and it was quite interesting to have it, but after a while I figured that fig is probably not my kind of note.

I've tested it today, after several months keeping in closet, received by swap.
It makes me smile... nothing floral here, fresh fig leaves, resins, galbanum...summer refreshing to get rest from usuall sweet florals. Like it a lot!
When I smell it I imagine fresh, bitter, dark green color!

Oh it's so figgy at first, but the notes appeared somewhat in reverse order on my skin. The opening was sharp and green with galbanum being dominant. Wonderful for resin-lovers like myself! The heart notes felt a bit unisex, when the orange and cedar co-mingled. The dry-down was a sweet, slightly powdery, woody cedar, with the occasional waft of galbanum re-emerging. It felt clean, vaguely soapy at times, in a very unisex way.

I like it so much, I am trying to decide whether it is a "love". But it doesn't feel like a women's floral at all to me.

.........Keeping it simple;o) Fresh at first, then soft and warm, the fig is yummy!......I only received this the other day and the first day I wore it I got wonderful compliments on how lovely I smelt....good enough for me :o)

It's simple and beautiful.
The scent follows "needs" of summer days. How?
Well, it starts very fresh (fig) and light - and that's what we need for morning and afternoon heat. Than, you notice that becomes more warmer but it never overpowers fig domination. What you feel later is smell of sunset... I thought it is vanilla but I guess I felt resins. The warm touch of resins it is just like sunset - the entire palate of orange color.
In the end - everything (almost in the same time) fades... as night is approaching... Time to sleep...

Qu'est-ce qui est Fleur de Figuier?

A rich warm fig fragrance in which the resins and kiss of orange subdue the greenness--meeting my expectation of a crisp almost masculine veil of fig with a warm feminine woody fig.

Much more wearable than Philosykos, as interesting and wonderful as that fragrance is.

Lasting power is very good for an EDT, but don't underspray. Don't overspray either!

A perfect fragrance for summer and even into fall. It has a fresh, crisp, greeny scent that truly lasts all day long with only a few sprays. Adding a hint of sexiness is the warmth of galbanum. I highly recommend this for daytime wear and especially nice for those who prefer not wearing those fruity florals that are in over-abundance these days.
