Perfume information

Description of the composition

The composition of Diptyque Philosykos Eau de Parfum centers around fig, with notes of ripe fruit, fresh leaf, and the woody base of the fig tree, enriched with spicy black pepper.

This blend creates the illusion of a whole fig tree, from roots to fruits, offering a juicy, green, and slightly spicy profile.

The notes unfold smoothly, without a clear separation into top, middle, and base, which is characteristic of the perfumers' holistic approach.

The fragrance evolves on the skin, retaining its natural essence and leaving a lasting impression, making every moment of wearing it unique and inspiring.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

The smell reminds me of freshly cut grass, maybe it's leaves. The scent of a fig tree, so bright and alive! There's no sweetness here, but you can feel the fruitiness. Interesting, though a bit simple. There's some earthy, dusty note, and that's just super! I really like it! It smells so natural, as if you've suddenly found yourself in a cool fig grove, turning off a hot road 🌿

The smell of fresh greens, fig, and coconut - it's simply a discovery! It's truly natural and very pleasant. For summer - an ideal choice. Although it quickly disappears on the skin, it lasts quite long on clothes

I had both fragrances - Philosykos and L’Artisan Premier Figuier. Honestly, Premier Figuier even appealed more, although perhaps there was too much coconut, and I adore it. But neither one truly captivated me. I gave Philosykos to a friend, and I simply exchanged Premier Figuier.

This milky-green fig in both fragrances didn't appeal to me - it felt dusty and flat. I didn't get any pleasant associations, unlike many others. Philosykos only brought on melancholy, and I didn't feel like reaching for it or using it. Fig, in this interpretation, is unpleasant for me, but in Mugler's Womanity, I absolutely adore it!

Giacobetti's combination of fig and coconut is not at all to my liking. I've never regretted parting with these fragrances - they're definitely not for me. Not all figs are created equal, and it surprises me how popular Philosykos became while Premier Figuier remained in the shadows. Advertising, of course, works wonders, but I think Premier Figuier sounds much more interesting and richer!!

The fragrance really differs from the EDT version in its longevity. The green pulp of the fruits retains its scent much longer. The fig here is so bright and straightforward, it's simply striking. Undoubtedly, it's beautiful and natural, there's nothing like it on the market. But, unfortunately, it choked me a bit and caused a headache
5/5

This perfume seems to have already won everyone's hearts: there's nothing better than this fig fragrance on the market. It's rich, with a milky fig note, as if a little sweet coconut has been added. For me, it evokes associations with the milky sap that appears on the stem when you pick a ripe fig. It pairs perfectly with the body lotion from the same brand, which has the same scent 🌟
4/5

This fragrance is simply incredible! It gives a feeling of freshness, you can clearly smell the green, crisp fig leaf, as well as its fruits and coconut. Despite being quite dry, the sensation of lightness and freshness is simply amazing. The only thing that's a bit disappointing is its weak longevity
2/5

The fig smells quite natural, but that doesn't save the situation. The longevity is simply terrible, and that's a big drawback. Maybe it's suitable for summer, but overall it's not impressive. I can't say it's the best fig I've encountered
4/5

This scent is much brighter and lasts longer than its counterpart. You can really feel natural fig and its leaves, coconut, all against a background of greenery, as if under a fig tree. Suitable for both men and women. I love spraying it. on my suede bag
