Fig & Lotus Flower

I absolutely love this scent! I bought it a few weeks ago as spring set in hoping it would satisfy my craving for the ultimate fresh slightly aquatic scent I've been searching for for hot Australian summers. I've tested sooo many scents and finally this is the one that hits the spot. I've worn it a few times and I must say it's perfect. It's definitely fresh, aquatic, green from fig leaf, crisp, it feels very cooling and clean and makes me feel put together. It's not sweet which is nice for hot weather and I would describe it as a zingy or zesty kind of a vibe. It feels laid back and casual and yet I think it's sophisticated enough to wear anywhere however for me it'll be a day time scent. I think it leans feminine but a male could definitely wear it. It's not a loud scent but it's there, I can smell it smell it most of the day. On me it lasts 4-6 hours which is good for a freshie in hot weather. It also stays on clothes for a long time. It's performance is impressive for a Jo Malone cologne which I've found to be hit or miss. Also when it's hot it's the type of perfume I enjoy spraying to touch up through the day because it smells so fresh and uplifting Love it ✨️ 🍃 10/10

Oh, hello, beautiful. This fragrance is an adventure and a half. Right off the bat, she's juicy. I almost get the smell of a ripe apple, and the scent is something I can almost taste, makes my mouth water. This scent is wet, fertile, fresh, lush (like springy moss after a spring rain), and very green forward. The juicy vibe stays with it all throughout the wear. This scent feels like medicine. It feels like a wealthy single woman who whiles away her days meditating, going to pilates classes, taking care of her little purebred dogs, wearing cashmere sweaters, and taking dance classes in upscale neighborhoods. It is a very crisp, direct scent that feels like security, comfort, self-assurance, and confidence. It is so quenching, it feels like taking a shower in a waterfall. Having it on the skin is an adventure as well. The way it trails up in a refreshing way every now and then is beautiful. It definitely feels like a soothing pick-me-up and embodies the relaxing, affluent life I dream of! I will be saving this one for special occasions-- like when *I* go to pilates or do group meditations. I want to keep this one special!

A clean, earthy floral fragrance that uplifts instantly and then settles into a grounding aroma that wraps around you in comfort. The floral note is light and intoxicating without ever becoming heavy — nothing like wet lotus flowers dripping in dew. Instead, it’s airy, elegant, and quietly mysterious. It’s a transportive scent, shifting slightly as it wears but always maintaining a fresh clarity without drifting into soapy territory. It’s floral without being too floral, aquatic without being obnoxious, and somehow both simple and complex at the same time. There’s a uniqueness here that makes it easier to explain what it isn’t than what it is. On my skin, this scent lasts. I can apply it in the evening and still wake up to that subtle, earthy‐lotus mystery lingering softly. It’s the kind of fragrance that keeps you coming back for another breath — not because it shouts, but because it whispers something you want to understand. I do love a good base note of vetiver. Top three of my Jo Malone scents. Just reordered.

Opens with light fruity fig (and slight coconut?), then the lotus flower and more aquatic notes get introduced. This isn't sweet or super fruity either, just overall very fresh with slight green / floral notes. Nothing is sharp or bitter, just fresh and light! :) Would be great to wear this during summer or spring! Unfortunately, longevity isn't great on me, but honestly, that's to be expected with Jo Malone. If you like Diptyque's Philosykos, I'm sure you'll like this! I would say this is more floral and has more fig in it than Philosykos. Philosykos is more green and earthy too, with the leaf and tree bark notes, nonetheless, they're both pretty similar. I prefer Fig & Lotus Flower, personally. This smells really good layered with NEST's Indigo! Scent: 8/10 Longevity: 3/10 Sillage: 5/10 Price: 4/10 School & Work Friendly! Would not recommend a blind buy if you are looking for something super fruity and juicy! Get this if you like light green / fresh scents, instead! Yours Truly, Yuzu 🍊

This is a beautiful Fig fragrance. Initially when testing it, I found it very unisex but as the lotus flower develops, it could lean slightly on the feminine side. As with all Jo Malone fragrances, it comes at a hefty price tag. Initially I wasn’t planning to get it but you should have seen the ‘sad face’ my partner pulled... Thankfully I found it on sale at an outlet store on 30% off. For a truly MAGICAL scent, mix ‘Fig & Lotus Flower’ with ‘Wood Sage & Sea Salt’... that combination is simply dynamite!! I mix mine with ‘In St Tropez’ from Zara as it’s so similar to Wood Sage and only cost a fraction of the price.
