The Les Éléments collection
Steep yourself in the rich, sweet, and gentle ambiance of a summer’s evening, caressed by the dappled Mediterranean light shifting in shadows and sunbeams through the branches. Figue is a private paradise for the senses, transporting you to a garden of a thousand colors.
A sparkling Mediterranean citrus is wrapped in the broad leaves of the fig tree. The green fig accord captures the fruit’s mellow, velvety smoothness before unfurling across a woody, musky base note, echoing the silky sap, the nectar of a milky fig.
When the plump, sensual fruit joins with the fig leaf, the fragrance unfolds with profound intensity.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
Figue suits the unhurried intimacy of an evening spent talking beside an open garden door. Tart fruit and green leaves keep its sweetness lively, while the milky, woody undertone lends a soft sensuality rather than a formal, dressed-up presence.
How to wear
Try it in mild to warm weather, when the citrus and leafy fig accord suit the temperature without losing their soft woody counterweight. Start with one or two sprays on skin; a restrained application keeps the sweet fruit close, while an additional spray can give the greener opening more presence.
Who it’s for
For those who enjoy fig fragrances that balance ripe sweetness with leafy greenery rather than turning into dessert. It will appeal to lovers of textured fruity woods, soft musk and a milky impression, with citrus and blackcurrant providing a tart contrast.

The nose
Mathieu Nardin. A Grasse-born perfumer associated with Robertet, Nardin combines a grounding in natural materials with a contemporary approach to composition. His work often emphasizes texture and contrasts between luminous freshness and softer, enveloping accords. In Figue, that balance takes the form of bright citrus and green foliage surrounding mellow fruit and milky woods.
Molinard’s story
Founded in Grasse in 1849, Molinard is an independent, family-owned house that balances inherited craftsmanship with experimentation. Its philosophy favors creative freedom and personal pleasure over fashion, drawing on both natural and synthetic ingredients. The material-focused Les Éléments collection expresses that approach through accessible, evocative compositions.
Figue’s concept
Figue was introduced within Les Éléments as an interpretation of a Mediterranean garden on a summer evening. Its central idea is the fig tree as a whole: broad leaves, velvety fruit and the impression of milky sap. Citrus illuminates the greenery, while woods and musk carry the fruit's softness into the drydown.
Extra info
The official note pyramid includes both fig fruit and fig leaves, giving the central material two distinct facets. Molinard classifies the fragrance as citrus, gourmand and woody. The collection's 2020 reorganization concerns its presentation, not Figue's original release.
