I spritzed some of this on my wrist the other day, passing a Jo Malone concession (during the same trip as my Laura Mercier head-rush) and later that day decided that I simply had to stink of figs all day long for the rest of my life.
But it is sold out! Everywhere! Bottles of this are changing hands on Amazon for hundreds of pounds. I feel a strong sense of injustice and inadequacy. I bet this sort of thing doesn’t happen to Pernille.
Obsessed with Pomegranate Noir, too.
If you can’t find that, try Diptyque Figuier, that’s what I wear and it’s gloriously “fresh figgy”. Can’t find it on their website currently but Liberty is advertising it for sale. It’s lush.
Thanks Kristy, I will look into that!
Also Korres do a lovely figgy shower gel and body lotion etc..
Love the blog!
Thanks Angela xx
Diptyque Figuier is one of my favouries too – so fresh (akin to Diorella or Eau Savage) and very figgy
I like Jo Malone but they keep discontinuing things I love. Honeysuckle and Jasmine, Tuberose, Vintage Gardenia. All so good and all gone.
Have you checked out Jo Loves?
just had a look – this is so weird – jo malone diffusion line? confusing. still no fig though 🙁
Jo Malone got sold to someone (Estee Lauder?) and Jo Loves is her new shop. I had a brief look and the prices rather terrified me.
Not that Jo Malone is cheap.
Diptyque Philosykos is lovely for a fig perfume – Figuier is the matching candle/room spray (you can totally spray the room sprays on yourself IMHO but they just won’t last as long). In Space NK if you can’t be arsed traipsing to Brook St.
I know! I’ve been wearing this for three winters and they’ve bloody discontinued it. John Lewis do a Di Palomo fig and grape scent (the hand cream is good) and The White Company do fresh fig stuff – no perfume I don’t think, but body wash and lotions.
discontinued!!!! why don’t they just say that rather than out of stock? what bastards xx
