Figuier Noir by Houbigant is a fragrance for men. Figuier Noir was launched in 2022. The nose behind this fragrance is Céline Ellena. Top notes are Fig Leaf, Cardamom, Black Pepper and Cloves; middle notes are black fig, Iris and Jasmine; base notes are Fig, Cedar, Patchouli and Candied Fruits. Created by perfumer Céline Ellena, Figuier Noir is a fragrance dedicated to the hearts of men, a reassuring and elegant but at the same time contradictory olfactory combination. Figuier Noir is a synergy of saps to reach the unattainable star, a combination of woods, to emphasize sincerity, an interlacing of roots, to anchor the signature, exquisite spices and black fig pulp that shapes its sillage. Top notes: fig leaves, cardamom, cloves, black pepper Middle notes: Black fig, iris, jasmine Base notes: cedarwood, patchouli, candied figs "I had this opportunity, to live in the countryside in Grasse region where I had all the time in the world to contemplate the passage of time and to welcome the arrival of sunny days. From the first heat, the fig trees yield a bitter and sensual perfume, harsh and voluptuous. A reassuring and elegant olfactory combination, yet so contradictory, that the idea came to me to write a men's fragrance. Sitting in the shade of the black fig tree whose gnarled branches embraced me like long, sensitive arms, refreshed by the caress of the wind that gently crumpled the leaves above my head, so large that they reminded me of a giant’s hands, I guessed beyond the bark, the gentle, soothing pulsation of the sap. Nose stretched, hands abandoned to the ground, eyes closed, I let myself be carried away by the waves of contrary but disturbing scents. Numb and blissful, I immediately went back to my workshop to keep my fickle harvest and, in front of my scale, I formulated a brief series of fragrant ingredients. As you probably know, men like to define themselves in a few words." -  Céline Ellena. Figuier Noir is available as a 150ml Eau de Parfum.
