Questions
What people ask about this scent
- How is Figuier different from Baies?
- They are both Diptyque icons and they are not close. Baies is blackcurrant leaf and rose; Figuier is fig wood, leaf and sap. Both depend on a green note that cheaper interpretations tend to lose.
- Why does the original have no price here?
- We had not observed one when this page was written. Rather than carry over a figure from memory or a third-party listing, we leave the cell empty until we can date it.
