If you are a regular reader of ÇaFleureBon, then you know how talented we believe Michael Schrammel is; he’s a new-on-the scene artisan perfumer from Wisconsin (I awarded his brand For The Scent of It Best Discovery of 2022). Michael is also our Notes From the lab Contributor.
Michael credits Sylvia Plath and one of her writings from “The Bell Jar” for the creation of Forbidden Fig, the first perfume he launched in his line. “I saw my life branching out before me like the green fig tree in the story. From the tip of every branch, like a fat purple fig, a wonderful future beckoned and winked…I saw myself sitting in the crotch of this fig tree, starving to death, just because I couldn’t make up my mind which of the figs I would choose. I wanted each and every one of them, but choosing one meant losing all the rest.” – Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

Michael chose to encapsulate this imagery into For the Scent of It Forbidden Fig by creating a fresh fig of realism. Each spray is like a bite into a fig, fresh off the tree. The sunshine peeking through the leaves while a breeze carries aloft a musk of serenity.-Michelyn Camen, Editor-in-Chief
. Notes: Fig Leaf, Sunny Grapefruit, Fig Pulp, and Musk.
