Philosykos EDT

Philosykos EDT is a fresh, green fig perfume. This is nothing but the entire fig tree - stems, leaves, fruit and all - in a bottle, and I love it.

It is an extremely green, photorealistic depiction of a fig tree, with the aromatic scent of freshly crushed fig leaves and stems, and a still hard, barely ripe fig fruit.

Compared to the EDP, this is much greener and lighter and does not have the creamy coconut or lush, ripe fig of the EDP. The same DNA is present in both, but they give totally different vibes. Go with the EDT if you want something refreshingly natural for very hot weather and love green scents. Go with the EDP if you like creamy, lush scents that feel like a quiet luxury.

This has quiet to moderate projection for an hour or two but barely lasts 3 hours total on my skin before disappearing, which is unfortunate because it is truly beautiful.

If you don't mind topping up throughout the day, this is a lovely unisex choice for spring and summer, especially when you're outdoors enjoying nature. 10/10 scent, but I will have to dock a point for the lackluster performance on my skin, so the total score for me is 9/10.
