Figo Fogo

I got Philosykos and loved it but it lasts 17 seconds. So I've been trying to find a similar scent that would last longer. Found it. Costs a third of Philosykos and is more intense and lasts a few hours. I reapply every few hours because I'm so obsessed I just have to. The green note is greener that in Philosykos which I don't mind at all. I just love how perfectly captures the smell of my childhood climbing a fig tree and picking figs. For me it's perfect. But not everybody's cup of tea, that's for sure. Not a safe bet. For some reason, my cats react to it and try to smell me really aggressively like they picked up something that triggers some intense memory, which I find amusing.

This is a very pleasant long lasting scent. And very affordable.

I came across their store during my holiday in Lisbon. What a lovely experience! I tested all their perfumes, and my first impression is simple and pleasant, easy to wear. Figo Fogo is my favorite. It is pretty straightforward and linear. It opens with bitter green notes, which in my opinion vividly depicts the sap when you cut up plant stems. I also get the soapy, slightly bitter neroli in the opening. It develops pretty fast on my skin, so shortly afterwards I start getting the fruity sweetness from the fig fruit. Little by little, the sweet creamy fig fruit overpowers the green fig leaves, but the green note in the meantime well balances the sweetness. It remains airy and fresh. Musk in the base notes gives it clean laundry vibe. At the end of the day, it becomes this pleasant clean skin scent. Considering the price, the performance is outstanding. It lasts on my skin for a whole day in the office. It is an easily wearable perfume for summer time.

I liked it more than Fico Amalfi because it is less sweet and fresher, but it lasts very little time.

if you like green fig leaf perfumes like philosophkos you will like this. however, i hate green scents.
