Of course you do!
I would too so I think this is a definate hell to the yeaaah.

BUT-

I’m vowing not to buy anything else till Oct. as I’ve gone a lil’ wee bit overboard on the perfume front lately
The first things I do buy are for sure going to be Tauer’s Une Rose Chypree and now Aftelier’s Fig. I can’t resist the urge to spray that all over like you described, I bet it’s heaven!
Thanks for answering, and maybe I’ll score that mini to tide me over till the fall.
Take care, and be well<3

You most definitely would not be disappointed! Fig is amazing. Since you have Fir-Ever Young, you might not “need” both. But I love having them both

What the hell??? I did not know of this hidden treasure?!
I’m ashamed of myself!
Thanks for the heads up Trish ,
I’m so glad you ended up getting it<3
Now I know fragrance is deeply personal but with how you pointed out how alike this and my beloved Fir-Ever Young is should I just throw caution to the wind and buy already?
What's the word bird?
It is so spendy to do that and I probably would'nt but if I could do that do you think I would be dissapointed?
Thanks for any opinions .

Just checked out both of your blogs, they are fabulous! Go PNW

Mandy Aftel’s Fig is unlike any other fig perfume. It’s a dark, jammy, overripe fig that I find entirely addictive. Hubby likes it too which helps.

Happy New Year!

This sounds like a fragrance that I would love and should try. I’m a fan of fig scents and this one sounds very interesting.

Joy,

I did not sense any difference between Fig EdP and the Parfum. They small alike to me and both have wonderful staying power!

I did get a sample of Trevert, and while it is piney, it is not sweet like Fig. It’s more ambery/powdery. Very lovely as well.

Thanks for reviewing this Trish. I love Mandy’s scents too. I’m reading Essence & Alchemy right now (have had it for years but haven’t read it cover to cover, just in bits and pieces). Anyway, I’m wondering if there’s much difference between the Fig EDP and parfum? I sampled this is the pure parfum and the fir was very prominent on my skin so I would love it if I had better luck w/the EDP. Sadly, her sample pricing is a bit spendy or I’d have sampled this in EDP already. I’m also curious if you’ve been able to try her Trevert EDP?
