by Carner Barcelona
Fig Man by Carner Barcelona presents a light, airy, aquatic interpretation of fig that leans more toward the sea than the fruit itself. It begins with a vibrant burst of bergamot, cardamom, and fig that quickly unfolds into a soft, marine-tinged heart with violet and fig leaf as delicate accents. While some note the subtle sweetness of tonka bean and the green, woody base of guaiac wood and patched leaf, the overall impression is more about freshness and movement than fruit intensity. The scent lacks strength and longevity—many users describe it as fading into a faint, skin-soft presence after just a few hours. It performs best in warm weather, particularly during spring and summer, and is perceived as ideal for daytime wear. Despite its delicate projection and short lifespan, it is noted for its balanced composition and unisex character, evoking Mediterranean coastlines with a refined, modern feel. It’s suited for those seeking a clean, subtly fig-forward scent that feels fresh without being harsh or overly commercial.
