Green Fig Leaf CO₂ Wax — Pure, Solid, Uncompromised

Fig leaf has become one of the defining green accords of modern niche perfumery — instantly recognisable, deeply evocative of Mediterranean gardens and sun-warmed orchards. This CO₂ wax offers a genuinely authentic botanical expression of fig leaf, capturing its full lipid and aromatic complexity in concentrated form rather than the synthetic reconstructions that dominate most commercial fig fragrances.

Supplied here in its pure, undiluted, solid wax form — exactly as extracted, with no carrier of any kind added. This is the genuine article for perfumers who prefer to prepare their own dilutions, or who want to work directly with the material in its most concentrated and authentic state.

Scent Profile

Green, milky, and distinctly coconut-tinged — a genuinely authentic fig leaf character with real botanical complexity, considerably more nuanced than the typically synthetic "fig" notes found in commercial perfumery. A soft, woody-green undertone runs throughout, with subtle sap-like and slightly bitter facets that give this material genuine depth and realism.

Perfumery Applications

An exceptional material for genuinely authentic green and fig-accord compositions, offering real botanical complexity that synthetic fig bases simply cannot replicate. Well suited to Mediterranean-inspired fragrances, green florals, and modern niche structures seeking genuine natural character rather than a conventional synthetic fig base.

Usage Note

This wax is solid at room temperature. To prepare for use, gently warm in a water bath at around 90°C to melt it into a liquid, then dilute with your solvent of choice according to your own formulation preferences.

Blending Suggestions

Pairs beautifully with coconut, green tea, violet leaf, galbanum, cedarwood, sandalwood, vetiver, and soft musks.
