    I've got the 1/6 decant from ebay with Philosykos. Riviere de Janvier is a big disappointment to me (or maybe my chemistry). it's bland - doesn't go any direction... just no character overall.

    May I make a strange comparison here? The scent is green and slightly sweet. It's like when I was younger, and I broke off the end of a branch of our first real Christmas tree. I feel so cruel...

    Very nice fig. Not as figgy as Philosykos but well rounded. I find it comforting and a real pleasure in this hot weather. It's easy to wear, I reach for it again and again and I NEVER wear the same...

    Got this as a sample in a swap. It smells like coconut to me, as many others have noted. There is something else lurking in the background that I can't peg--maybe it's the fig since I'm not too...

    Wow! I actually kind of like this, and I'm not normally a fan of fig-based fragrances. I usually think that fig fragrances are way too heavy/sickening sweet and smell artificial, so I wasn't that...

    Rcd. as sample from luckyscent. It's okay, but nothing I would purchase. Very powdery coconut scent, to me, kind of too sweet. I think if I'd put the usual amount on (little dab on each wrist...

    This is a lot like Diptyque's Philosykos: a green and unripe fig scent, with lots of creaminess thrown in. Keep in mind that fig is one of my least favorite notes. This fragrance is just not my thing.

    This was just not for me but I can see why other people would like it. It was very creamy, I think I would prefer a little sharper green and rose but the fig was lucious. Just not really my...

    It smells so much like L'artisans PF. A bit softer. I love it and anyone who loves Fig scents should have this one. I gave it 4 and not a 5 because I still find Philosykos the best fig scent out...

    I am really surprised I liked this one, at first it's rather a GREEN scent very Grassy...which I don't usually dig, somehow it blends rather nicely with my chemistry and smells really warm, clean...

    Wow, this is a great summer fig scent. Fresh, green and milky, this is less floral than Premier Figuier Extreme and not a coconut fragrance as I found Philosykos to be. Love at first sniff, and...

    Echoing reviews below: This is a cozier L’Artisan Premier Figuier without the coconut. Not as green due to the soft vanilla. Very lovely and perfect for a casual scent. Thanks to Traes for my...

    This was recommended to me by Franco at Lucky Scent. Absolutely gorgeous! I tried Philosykos by Diptyque, and was quite disappointed. All I got was weedy fig stems. This one is much softer and...
