Fig Nuit Eau de Parfum

Fig Nuit Eau de Parfum by Carl Kling Parfums presents fig not as green, sunny, or Mediterranean, but at the moment of greatest ripeness: dark violet, soft, and almost overflowing with juice. Blackcurrant lends the opening a tart-fruity tension, while violet quickly draws the fragrance in a cool, powdery direction.

At the heart, a lush fig accord meets davana, osmanthus, and iris root. This makes Fig Nuit full-bodied and seductive, but not overly sweet. Floral and slightly liqueur-like nuances blend with a velvety powderiness before milk and vanilla make the composition softer and creamier. Earthy patchouli balances the sweetness and gives the fragrance depth.

Fragrance notes

• Top note: Blackcurrant, violet
  Heart note: Ripe fig accord, davana, osmanthus, orris, or iris root
  Base note: Patchouli, milk, vanilla

The result is an intimate, expressive fig fragrance with a dark character—striking and idiosyncratic. Together with renowned perfumer Antoine Lie, Carl Kling has interpreted the ripe fruit in a nuanced and elegant way. Fig Nuit is the sensual counterpart to the fresher, more aromatic Clary Fig Eau de Parfum: two different perspectives on the same fruit, conceived as a transition from day to night.

Carl Kling Parfums is a Swedish fragrance brand founded in 2022 that combines Scandinavian clarity with French perfumery craftsmanship. The fragrances are created in close collaboration with renowned perfumers, who are given the time and creative freedom to develop their ideas consistently. Rather than trends, the focus is on distinctive compositions, high-quality raw materials, and the personalities of their creators.

How to use

• Depending on the desired intensity, apply one to three sprays to the neck, wrists, or crooks of the arms.
• Let the fragrance dry on the skin and do not rub the wrists together so the fragrance notes can develop undisturbed.
• For a more subtle effect, apply sparingly at first and increase the intensity as needed.

FAQ

What does Fig Nuit by Carl Kling Parfums smell like?
Fig Nuit smells of fully ripe, dark fig, blackcurrant, and powdery iris. Milk and vanilla give the composition a creamy warmth, while patchouli provides an earthy, elegant depth.

Is Fig Nuit a sweet gourmand perfume?
Fig Nuit has a soft sweetness from fig, milk, and vanilla, but it is not a classic dessert fragrance. Blackcurrant, iris, davana, and patchouli give it tart, floral, and earthy facets.

What is the difference between Fig Nuit and Clary Fig?
Clary Fig interprets fig in a fresh, green, and aromatic way with lemon, caraway, and clary sage. Fig Nuit shows the darker side of the fruit: riper, powderier, creamier, and more sensual.

Is Fig Nuit a unisex perfume?
Yes. The combination of fruity, floral, creamy, and earthy notes is not designed for a specific gender and can be worn by anyone.

Is Fig Nuit particularly suitable for evening wear?
Its dark fig, powdery iris, and warm base come into their own particularly beautifully in the evening and during the cooler seasons. However, thanks to its moderate projection, the fragrance can also be worn during the day.
