Scent Character
The Scentype Maple Fig Gelato is a 2024 eau de parfum from The Scentype, a Hong Kong perfume brand.
This is a unisex fragrance for those who enjoy expressive gourmand compositions with juicy fruitiness and an unusual green nuance.
Its character is built around the contrast between ripe fig, creamy ice cream, and sweet maple syrup.
The name Maple Fig Gelato perfectly captures the mood of the composition: the fragrance recalls a dessert where soft fruit pulp meets the cool texture of ice cream and the rich sweetness of maple syrup.
At the same time, the formula is not limited to a single sugary accord. Tomato leaf adds a green, slightly tart nuance that makes the sweetness feel more dimensional and intriguing.
Notes and Development
The note pyramid of Maple Fig Gelato includes fig, ice cream, tomato leaf, tonka bean, vanilla, and maple syrup.
The top, middle, and base notes are not listed separately, so the composition is best understood as a cohesive accord in which fruity, creamy, green, and sweet nuances unfold in a constant dialogue.
On the skin, the fragrance can be especially appealing thanks to its smooth transition from juicy fruitiness to creamy softness.
Fig creates a velvety, slightly honeyed impression, ice cream softens the composition, and tomato leaf adds a fresh green accent.
As it develops, vanilla, tonka bean, and maple syrup intensify its warm gourmand character, leaving a noticeable sweet aftertaste.
Sillage and Wearability
Maple Fig Gelato is described as having very strong sillage, so the fragrance can make a noticeable presence in its surroundings.
It is not the most discreet everyday option, but an expressive accessory for occasions when you want to make a statement with an unusual sweet scent.
It may be especially striking in cool weather, when the vanilla, tonka, and syrupy nuances become denser.
The fragrance is classified as unisex and is not tied to a specific gendered image.
On one person’s skin, it may appear creamy, fruity, and soft; on another’s, greener, spicier, or intensely sweet.
Because of its very strong sillage, it is worth testing the composition on your skin before full application and observing how it develops over several hours.
No precise recommendations for the number of sprays on skin or clothing are provided in the available data.
Brand Style and Similar Fragrances
Maple Fig Gelato continues the contemporary niche-perfumery interest in unconventional gourmand combinations.
Here, the familiar vanilla-sweet theme takes a fresh turn through fig and tomato leaf, making the fragrance feel more conceptual than a classic composition built around a single dessert accord.
No information is provided about the perfumer who created it or its membership in a specific collection.
In terms of mood and its sweet character, Maple Fig Gelato can be compared with Mugler Angel Eau Croisière 2020, Zara Red Vanilla, and Bershka Pink Edition.
At the same time, The Scentype focuses on a combination of fig, ice cream, and maple syrup, adding a green tomato-leaf note to the familiar gourmand base.
This profile will appeal to fans of sweet fragrances who are looking for more than a simple vanilla perfume: a more unusual and noticeable interpretation of the dessert theme.
