The fig tree, of the Moraceae family, grows on the Mediterranean basin where it has been cultivated for thousands of years. In France, figs were first harvested under Louis XIV. La Quintinie, the King’s gardener, planted over seven hundred fig trees of different varieties in the Versailles gardens, to satisfy His Highness’ taste buds. Fig leaves exhale an exquisite and beneficent vapour.

Lovely for cool weather
I previously thought that a the fresh, green scent of fig would suit warm or hot weather, but the two CF Fig candles on the deck table have been really lovely right through winter, and now into Spring. They are very long lasting, and I’ll definitely buy replacements.
The Ficus Carica (Fig) candle from Carriere Freres has an embracing, comforting scent, and the flame seen through the white ceramic container is soft and gorgeous. I think this would make a lovely gift.
