Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Wild Fig & Cassis EDP
A beloved, much-missed Jo Malone classic, this fig scent leans green and woody rather than milky sweet. It's a natural, authentic fig that left many gutted by its discontinuation.

Our Verdict - Wild Fig and Cassis - 787 EDP
No. 787 recreates Jo Malone's Wild Fig & Cassis - sun-ripened fig and sharp black currant leaf over a woody-earthy base. Jo Malone's original is already famous for modest longevity, so the dupe's shorter wear stands out less than usual, though No. 787's fig reads a touch sweeter and less green than the tart, leafy original.

Its fresh, green, and slightly earthy profile, combined with typical Jo Malone light sillage and moderate longevity, makes it perfect for casual wear and the office. It's a bit too understated for formal events and not overtly romantic for dates, but its natural freshness suits daytime activities perfectly.
