For me is the fragrance of Sicily, with bittersweet and green notes. The drydown is sweet and lactonic. When I use this perfume I see an ancient sicilian garden... with a lot of mediterranean plants... almonds and fig trees, jasmine, palms, olives and a large stone fountain. This is my World, where I live everyday.

It's a synthetic version of philosykos.
At first sprit it does remind me of philosykos. As time goes on it gets sweeter and more "synthetic".
Let me put it this way, I can take long long sniffs with philosykos but not this one. This one if I sniff it too much it's boarder line cloying, if you are sensitive.
And instead of the juicy milky quality philosykos has, this one is fig only, not much green in it, it's really about the nectar. It's still juicy at the beginning, but as mentioned above, the dry down is sweeter.
For the price it's a good fig fragrance, it's all about fig. Worth trying imo.

This came as a total surprise to me: I really wanted to dislike it but then it hit me by surprise. There was a lovely, punchy Jo Malone Fig&Cassis once, that was unfortunately discontinued few years back, and this Monotheme brought me a close memory of that departed one.
Although less punchy, more "fruity-jammy" this juice packs unexpected smacker to my nose today.
No resemblance whatsoever to Philosykos more then to any other scent with a fig opening: this completely lacks the recognisable coconuty creaminess of Olivia's masterful creation...however, that is not a bad thing. And although Red Fig is little on a sort of naive and heavy side of fruity/musky sweetness it doesn't pretend to be a perfume and works well as EDT by not overstaying it's welcome, it becomes a skin scent in few short hours.

Red Fig is clearly inspired by Philosykos. As it dries down though, one can definitely sense the difference between this and its niche counterpart. Here the massive opening wears out in about forty minutes and the scent itself is less sombre and majestic (most likely because there are no woodsy notes). Just milky sweet fig on a floral-greenish background, coconut is not mentioned but it must be there.
IMO the main flaw of this fragrance is that it is rather heavy and as a consequence I perceive it as negatively synthetic.

I’ve been searching for a fig perfume for my wedding
Even though this won’t be the freagrance for my special day. It did surprise me.
Whilst in M&S I stumbled across this.
I have a few of this houses perfumes.
They’re great cheap fragrances.
I sprayed this fig one
Went around the store. And whilst I was about to leave I decided that actually loved the fragrance.
It’s fresh. It’s sweet fig.
It does smell Like a fig. A fruity fig.
It doesn’t last long but it’s definitely about 3 hours on my skin.
I’d recommend to anyone that loves fresh clean green fragrances.

Blotter test: smells like just cut red and green peppers!
Not unpleasant but certainly an acquired taste.
Probably refreshing on a hot day but the scent didn't change for a long time so any wearer would smell of cut peppers for a good while!
Unisex, based on the blotter test.
