Fig Man
Carner Barcelona released Fig Man in 2019, a scent for women and men. It opens with Fig, Bergamot and Cardamom, its heart holds Sea Notes, Fig Tree and Violet, and it dries down to Guaiac Wood, Tonka Bean and Indonesian Patchouli Leaf. It opens with Fig, Bergamot. The heart moves into Sea Notes, Fig Tree. In the dry-down, Guaiac Wood, Tonka Bean give it its base. From the way people describe wearing it, this comes across best as evocative mediterranean coastal atmosphere; playful yet mature scent profile; sweeter and heavier than some people expect. The trade-off is that it may feel poor longevity; fades to skin scent quickly; frequent comparisons to much cheaper fragrances; linear development after the initial opening depending on taste and setting.
