Purple Fig by Vilhelm Parfumerie was launched in 2016 and is crafted by perfumer Jérôme Epinette. This composition opens with the bright freshness of lemon and angelica, which contrasts beautifully against the rich depth of fig and cassis. The heart note of cyclamen adds a soft floral touch that balances the fruity vibrancy, while galbanum brings an earthy green element to the mix. As it settles into its base notes of virginian cedar and musk, Purple Fig evokes a warm, woody embrace that feels both comforting and intriguing.

Application Tips
Apply Purple Fig in light layers to allow its complex notes to develop gradually. The fresh citrus opening fades within an hour, but the warm woody base continues to linger throughout the day. This fragrance is best for daytime wear when you want a balance of brightness and warmth.
