It's the fragrance equivalent of fashion's classic white shirt.

Santal Greenery opens with a hit of freshly squeezed, bright yellow citrus before settling into a skin-hugging, creamy scent of green figs and sandalwood. The best part? The scent lingers on fabrics and smells even better the day after.

Best For... A 'Stealth Wealth' Fig
D.S. & Durga Debaser EDP
Certain fig fragrances have a tendency to feel sticky sweet, but Debaser's well-balanced composition has an airiness that makes it a head-clearing spritz, lingering like a gentle cloud rather than a stifling scent. Think ice-cold coconut milk splashed onto freshly-picked figs.

Best For... A Grown-Up Citrus
Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Forte Nerolia Vetiver EDP
Best For... A Grown-Up Citrus
Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Forte Nerolia Vetiver EDP
As the name suggests, Nerolia Vetiver dials up the neroli – a white flower that can sometimes appear with a slightly bitter, earthy edge rather than a full-on girlish floral. There's a splash of bright citrus in the opening to perk up rainy days, tempered with woody vetiver and just the lightest sprinkle of fig for extra body.

Best For... Compliments Galore
Phlur Father Figure EDP
Best For... Compliments Galore
Phlur Father Figure EDP
It's rare that the Bazaar beauty team unanimously agree on a fragrance, but Phlur's Father Figure won our hearts with its blend of powdery iris root, vanilla-infused figs and just a sprinkle of blackcurrant leaf for extra shine. Considering that it's made by perfumer Frank Voekl (the man behind Le Labo Santal 33 and Glossier You), we expect Father Figure will be a cult-hit.
