Miller Harris Figue Amere is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2002, created by Lyn Harris. Figue Amere opens with Bergamot and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Angelica, Rose, Violet Leaf, and Narcissus, and dries down to a base of Amber, Cedar, and Seaweed. Miller Harris's Figue Amere carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This one's a proper grower, a true 'love-it-or-hate-it' without relying on bog-standard fig notes. It's got layers, demanding patience to reveal its sophisticated, green-woody heart. Not for those after a sweet fruit bomb.

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.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opening with a bitter green accord, almost like snapping a fresh fig branch, Figue Amere quickly introduces a wave of aromatic cedar and fir resin. A hint of salty seaweed weaves through, balanced by the subtle green floral lift of violet leaf and the bright zest of mandarin and bergamot. The drydown settles into an elegant woody amber, retaining a distinctive, unsweetened character.
