Aromatic Blends: Fig Leaf & Sage

Fig Leaf & Sage perfume is a captivating fragrance that effortlessly weaves together the aromatic tapestry of fig leaf, sage, thyme, and bergamot. This olfactory masterpiece transports you to a serene garden, where each note plays a harmonious role in creating a sensorial symphony. The opening notes of fig leaf and bergamot greet your senses with a burst of freshness, reminiscent of a sunlit morning stroll through a lush orchard. The fig leaf introduces a subtle green accord, setting the stage for the verdant journey that lies ahead. The citrusy sparkle of bergamot adds a touch of brightness, evoking the warmth of the sun on your skin. As the fragrance unfolds, the herbal richness of sage and thyme emerges, weaving seamlessly into the composition. The aromatic dance of these herbal notes adds depth and complexity, creating a balanced and sophisticated fragrance profile. The sage brings a grounding element, while thyme contributes a nuanced herbal essence, reminiscent of a fragrant herb garden in full bloom. The dry-down is where the Fig Leaf & Sage perfume truly shines. The interplay of the fig leaf's greenery, the herbal bouquet of sage and thyme, and the lingering citrusy freshness of bergamot creates a captivating and long-lasting trail. The fragrance evolves gracefully, leaving a memorable imprint that captivates those around you. The sillage of this perfume is moderate, making it suitable for both casual and more formal occasions. It strikes a perfect balance, making a statement without overwhelming the senses. The longevity is impressive, ensuring that the fragrance accompanies you throughout the day, unveiling its different facets with each passing hour. This perfume is a celebration of nature's beauty, encapsulated in a bottle for those who seek a fragrance that transcends the ordinary. I am sad that this blend has discontinued....

I love this creamy fig scent. Beautiful, refreshing, easy to wear perfume that is log lasting on the skin. I also layer this with the matching body lotion which makes it last even longer. Great for relaxing over the weekend, great for the office and great for every day wear.. One of my favourite fig scents followed by Philosykos by Diptyque. Also resembles Jo Malone's wild fig and cassis, however kiehl's fig scent is so much more affordable than jo malone and just as good. Update: just went to kiehl's in my city and they told me this was being discontinued, I bought the last two bottles they had as I really like this fragrance, it's uplifting and smooth fig and sage....I hate it when companies discontinue products we love, then we have to stock up!!

The scent that got me hooked on fig. I tried this in the store on my arm. At first, I thought it was weird and off putting. But I gradually kept smelling my arm and each time I was drawn more into it. I've ordered a bottle of Womanity, because I think it's an easier way to do a fig perfume, but this one is definitely intriguing. Update: It's three years later and I have had a small 30ml in my collection for a while now, and actually I find I reach for this more often than Womanity. I regret not buying a larger bottle, as I am heartbroken that it's been discontinued. I always thought this was a very underrated perfume. I much prefer this to Philosykos, which gets so much hype. It's the perfect balance of green, herbal and creamy.

I am wearing the cologne tester of this right now, spritzed on twice in the past four hours (thanks to my generous boss!). It reminds me strongly of Laura Mercier Eau Gourmande Fig. Heavy fig top notes which never really fade away but more give way to a nuttiness mingled with green notes which is rather enchanting. Herbal (that'd be the sage & thyme notes), green, nutty, figgy (I know that's not a word). Very unisex, very warm, very snuggly. This is fig the way I like it, not chokingly heavy, just right. Good longevity on my skin for a cologne but then I'd expect that from Kiehl's - colognes really do not last long on me, (nor do many edts) but this one has edt strength staying power on my dry fair skin.

I love this aromatic body mist from Kiel’s. To me, it just smells like a fresh spring or early summer day in Northern Italy. I tend to layer it it with vanilla scents in the fall and winter and on its own in the summertime. It lies very close to the body and needs reapplying throughout the day and is definitely more delicate than most other scents I own. I wish it weren’t discontinued and I’ve been having a hard time finding a substitute. Thankfully I was able to acquire a few unused bottles from EBay. If anyone has a suggestion for a substitute, I’d be grateful!
