About Forbidden Fig
Forbidden Fig by The Dua Brand: An Intriguing Floral-Gourmand for All
The Dua Brand introduces Forbidden Fig, a unisex perfume that brings together the crisp greenery of fig leaves, the sweetness of muscovado sugar, and a generous helping of character. Released in 2026, it falls within the floral fruity gourmand olfactive family.
Mahsam Raza, the perfumer behind the composition, has selected fig, bergamot, ylang-ylang, and vetiver to build a scent that is at once bright, earthy, and comforting. This is far from a straightforward fig fragrance – it has many layers.
The opening is sharp and lively: bergamot delivers citrus energy while fig leaves provide a leafy, slightly bitter edge. Almost immediately, the richness of muscovado sugar begins to emerge, giving the perfume a sticky, tempting quality.
Ylang-ylang takes charge in the middle notes, adding a floral, almost banana-like softness that tempers the sweetness. The base is all about vetiver, which introduces a smoky, rooty character that grounds the whole experience.
The fragrance's main accords are woody, green, sweet, yellow floral, citrus, aromatic, fruity, fresh, earthy, and fresh spicy. These elements create a complex, ever-changing trail that never feels dull.
Forbidden Fig works well in both daytime and evening settings, and it suits a range of temperatures, though it truly shines in spring and autumn. Its unisex profile invites exploration, making it an ideal choice for those who like to switch things up.
If you're someone who appreciates sweet, gourmand scents with a green twist, this is for you. It's also a fantastic pick for anyone seeking a versatile unisex perfume with a modern feel.
With Forbidden Fig, The Dua Brand proves its ability to create clever, characterful fragrances. A must-try for fans of fig, or for anyone in search of a new signature scent.
