New Fragrance: Shay and Blue Dandelion Fig (Dom De Vetta/ Julie Massé) 2017

dandelion-fig

I have never smelled a fragrance that uses dandelion leaf in its composition… nor can I remember seeing this ingredient in a perfume's listed notes… until now. Leave it to  Shay and Blue's Creative Director Dom  De Vetta   in collaboration with de facto in-house perfumer Julie Massé,  to compose an unusual, unisex, eclectic new perfume, Dandelion Fig.

Whisper-soft layers of fig and dandelion leaf.  Blended with lemongrass, tomato vine and juniper.”

TOP NOTES: Dandelion leaf opens the fragrance with a note of fresh green, while lemongrass adds a touch of heat.

HEART NOTES: Tomato vine underlines the green opening and juniper is the zingy counterpoint in the heart of the scent.

BASE NOTES:Fig in the dry down for a naturally earthy base to anchor the composition

Based on the description,  Dandelion Fig sounds different, fresh and modern.

  • This sounds really good. I am a sucker for Fig frags and I drink dandelion tea… But never considered the smell of dandelions. I’d like to smell that! Tomato vine… *swoon*!!

  • Thanks for the heads up! I’ve been looking for a fig fragrance. Fig is one of my favorite fruits, I have a tree in my backyard and it’s a short season so I need a fragrance.

  • This sounds like the perfect new scent for spring and summer. I’ve never understood the dandelion hate, poor things, they smell wonderful and are such a sunny shade of yellow.

  • Dandelion leaf! Tomato vine! Sounds like a very sophisticated set of notes. I must try this fragrance 🙂

  • I love dandelions, but I am always concentrated on their look and even don’t know the smell of their leaves, so I am very curious. Can’t wait until February.
