Fig & Lotus Flower
A watery green floral drawn from a pond in the ancient Hanging Gardens: milky fig leaf, a floating lotus accord and earthy vetiver.
Perfumer: Alexis Dadier
The setting is a shimmering pond in the ancient Hanging Gardens, where lotus flowers drift on the water and fig trees hang heavy with fruit. Neroli joins the composition to hold the whole landscape together as a light floral.
Fig leaf opens the pyramid. Stemone®, a molecule with a leafy freshness, is paired with lactonic tones, so the green comes across soft and milky rather than sharp. The heart is a lotus accord built to suggest a flower floating on water: dewy, clear and gently floral.
Vetiver sits at the base, earthy and grassy, giving the watery flower and the sappy leaf something solid to rest on.
