Fig-Tea Intense
Fig-Tea Intense by Parfums de Nicolaï is an unisex eau de parfum in the premium price tier. It opens with osmanthus, citrus notes and sweet orange, moves into rosewood, jasmine, peach and davana and dries down to mate, guaiac wood, amber and oakmoss. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Osmanthus Apricot-and-leather floral. Unusual, warm and very wearable.
- Citrus Notes A mix of citrus peel with no single fruit named.
- Sweet Orange Juicy and cheerful. The friendliest citrus there is.
Heart
- Rosewood Soft, rosy wood. Gentle and slightly floral.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
- Peach Fuzzy, warm and slightly creamy. Soft rather than sharp.
- Davana Odd and gorgeous — apricot jam, rum and dried herbs at once.
Dry-down
- Mate Dry, smoky, bitter green tea. Toasted rather than fresh.
- Guaiac Wood Smoky, tarry and slightly sweet. Like a bonfire and roses.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
