The Fragrance Story of Fig
From the lush fig groves of Provence to ancient Mediterranean courtyards, the fig tree has long symbolised abundance and tranquillity. Its fragrance is prized for its ability to combine freshness with creamy, comforting depth — a scent that’s both timeless and contemporary.
Fig Leaf vs. Fig Fruit: Two Distinct Scents
Fig Leaf: Crisp, green, and airy. Fig leaf evokes shaded garden canopies, fresh sap, and a slightly earthy undertone. In soap, fig leaf fragrance delivers a refreshing, uplifting quality that feels clean and invigorating.
Fig Fruit: Sweet, velvety, and softly woody. Fig fruit recalls sun-warmed orchards, rich pulp, and a mellow gourmand sweetness. In soap, fig fruit fragrance offers a warmer, more enveloping experience, perfect for moments of indulgence and self-care.
Our soaps combine both for a layered scent: the initial fresh greenness of fig leaf opening into the soft sweetness of fig fruit, mirroring the natural complexity of the tree itself.
Why Fig Fragrance Works in Soap
