Purple Fig

Dynamic Purple Fig beautifully narrates the joy and sorrow one may feel at the end of a journey. It opens with a searing Sichuan bite that evokes the feeling of holding back tears. Gazing around at the grassy galbanum fields while enjoying fresh figs with friends, the stinging spice dissipates, and fades quickly into cashmere-wrapped jasmine. The warm and cozy comfort remains as close as lifelong friends.

From Vilhelm Parfumerie
What would you do if it were your last night on earth? For Johann Friedrich Struensee, doomed doctor of the Danish court, it meant a picnic with his love and their friends on the last night before his death. As always, champagne and figs, his favorite fruit, were on the menu, as dusk turned the sky purple. Joy and tears, sorrow and laughter, a bitter sweet cocktail that lives on in this Purple Fig.
