Purple Fig Eau de Parfum
SKU: 41046
One Last Bite of Life. On the last night before his death, Johann Friedrich Struensee, doomed doctor of the Danish court, had a picnic with his love and their friends on a grassy knoll near the edge of a forest. As always, champagne and figs, his favorite fruit, were on the menu, as dusk turned the sky purple.
Founder Jan Vilhelm Ahllgren’s inspiration: “The last day of a condemned Danish court doctor, for a man who influenced society to be more open”.
Why we’re addicted: Joy and tears, sorrow and laughter, a bitter-sweet essence that lives on in this Purple Fig.
Top: Sichuan Pepper, Angelica Seeds.
Heart: Galbanum, Green Fig, Jasmine Absolue.
Base: Vetiver, Cashmere Woods.

More than a perfume, Vilhelm Parfumerie is a library. If some scents are silences, these are tales. Within identical bottles, fragrances are so many narratives that call to all senses, housed in a hefty bottle of spun glass, designed by Pierre Dinand, dressed in a saffron yellow label that nods to a piece of Bakelite found in a Parisian flea market.
Northern lights and Hollywood highlights. North and South. Freshly cut grass and caressing oud. Bracing freshness and burning summer warmth. Simple pleasures and lavish times. Each fragrance is the culmination of a broad, creative and collaborative process – a rare blend of vintage and new that sparks recognition but not familiarity.
From its dynamic, innovative scents to the heritage design and timeless prints, Vilhelm Parfumerie is a nod to the past, expressed in our contemporary olfactory language and aesthetic.
