Which Should You Buy?
This aquatic floral is a polarizing pick-me-up. Some find it a refreshing, clean fig, perfect for hot days. Others, however, are put off by its green or citrusy facets, leading to a 'love it or leave it' divide. Expect Jo Malone's usual fleeting performance.
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Fig & Lotus Flower - JM - a fruity fragrance led by Fig leaf, with woody depth. It captures the gist of the original at a fraction of the cost, rendering a touch simpler and quieter.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its clean, fresh aquatic-floral profile and intimate projection make it ideal for office and casual wear, as it's unlikely to offend. While not quite refined enough for formal events, its refreshing qualities are perfect for summer and active use, though some may find its longevity an issue.
Seasons
Reach for it across spring and summer, where the fruity signature sits most naturally; outside those months its softer projection thins out faster.
Occasions
This one suits casual and daily settings; the easy, breezy character keeps it versatile for date rotation too.
