Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Fleur de Figuier
A Francis Kurkdjian creation for the masses, this fig-focused scent is either a juicy, uplifting delight or far too sweet and fleeting, sparking a classic love-it-or-hate-it debate among fragheads.
Favourite
Our Verdict - L’Arbre de la Connaissance
This is a fiercely divisive fig fragrance that's either a verdant masterpiece or an instant scrubber. Those who love it adore its raw, green fig tree realism, while detractors find its opening too harsh or even chemical.
