Figue Amour

Figue Amour by Bastide Aix en Provence delivers a crisp, green-fig experience with a light and delicate profile. The opening features fresh bergamot and spicy cardamom, creating a bright, slightly chilled effect that quickly softens into a subtle, woody-sandalwood base. The fig note is present but fleeting, more of a background whisper than a dominant presence, allowing green, powdery, and slightly sweet accords to weave through the fragrance. It's most aligned with summer wear—light, clean, and refreshing—ideal for daytime wear and warm seasons. The longevity is moderate, barely lasting beyond a few hours, and sillage remains intimate to moderate. Despite its brief life, it's widely praised for its elegant, simple application and how it evokes a contemplative mood—like textural sunlight on a sun-drenched Provence garden. Some find the mid-phase includes a plasticky or sunscreen-like nuance, while others appreciate it as a refined sandalwood link, akin to Santal 33. Overall, it's less a fig-forward scent and more a layered green sillage with a smooth, worn-in elegance that feels more like a mood than a signature scent.
