Magnifico

I generally do not like green, fruity or sweet fig notes/accords. Somehow I like this one. I got a sample of it with the purchase of something else, and when I read it was a fig based scent, I wasn't even going to try it. But I did try it, and I am glad I did. As alegelsomino said, this fragrance takes you on a tour of the entire fig, from the sweet fruit and seeds, to the tart peel and the green leaves. It is excellent. What a pleasant surprise for a non-fig lover. I ended up buying a bottle from a discounter for a good price, and to think I wasn't even going to try it ... Fragrance collecting is like College Football ... you never know who is going to win. 8.75/10

A perfect, realistic fig scent! As a fig lover, I've been searching for a fig-forward fragrance with decent longevity—something most lack. Magnifico delivers beautifully. It lasts 2-3 hours on my skin and 4+ hours on clothes, depending on application. The mate note gives it an earthy, grassy quality that complements the fig perfectly, evoking the experience of picking a ripe fig straight from the branch. I detect more iris than the listed notes suggest, likely due to a slightly powdery dry-down, but make no mistake--this is a fig scent through and through. Anyone who loved Philosykos will adore this.
