Maison Incens Figue Aoudii is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014, created by Jean-Claude Gigodot and Irina Zhurikhina-Nesa. Figue Aoudii opens with Bergamot and Orange, settles into a heart of Leather, Cedar, Iris, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Sandalwood, and Oud. Maison Incens's Figue Aoudii carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This fig and oud combo is a deeply divisive, unconventional beast. It's smoky, syrupy, and definitely not for everyone, but if you're chasing something truly unique, this might just be your intoxicating poison. Sample first, seriously.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its long-lasting nature and moderate sillage, combined with a strong, unconventional aroma of dark fig, leather, and oud, make it too prominent for most office settings. It's best suited for dates or more niche casual outings where its unique character can be appreciated without overwhelming a room, and its darker, complex profile lends itself to formal evening wear.

About

Figue Aoudii opens with a fleeting burst of bright orange and bergamot, quickly giving way to a rich, dark fig note - less fresh, more jammy and thick. The heart introduces a prominent, almost burnt leather alongside woody cedar and the delicate powderiness of iris and violet. As it settles, a prominent, smoky oud emerges, intertwining with warm amber, creamy sandalwood, and a soft musk, creating a complex, long-lasting scent.
