Scent Profile

Fig leaf has a distinctive green scent profile, combining fresh, milky sap notes with hints of coconut and subtle woody undertones. Its aroma is both creamy and slightly bitter, evoking the sensation of crushed leaves and sun-warmed fig trees. The scent evolves from a bright, dewy greenness to a soft, lactonic finish.

What this is made of

Fig Leaf names no single substance

Reconstructed

Fig leaf absolute is essentially unavailable commercially; the note is a green-milky reconstruction built on stemone.

How the layers join

Origin

Fig leaf absolute is typically obtained from the leaves of the Ficus carica tree, native to the Mediterranean region. Extraction is most often performed using solvent extraction to capture the delicate, volatile green and milky facets present in the raw leaves.

Usage in Perfumery

Perfumers use fig leaf primarily in the heart or top of compositions to impart a lush, verdant quality and a creamy, tropical nuance. It blends well with citrus, woods, and floral notes, and is often featured in green, woody, or Mediterranean-inspired fragrances.
