Beles · Fico d'India
Prickly pear,
but not candy.
A green-pink cactus-fruit parfum — watery, sun-warm, and close to skin. Composed in Copenhagen as an oil-rich niche parfum.
What prickly pear reads like on skin
Prickly pear is irregular fruit — pulp guarded by spines, sweetness earned by heat. In perfumery it can smell bright and watery, with a green stem note and sun-warmed pulp that sits closer to skin than loud projection.
Beles · Fico d'India places that accord against mineral air and soft musk: prickly pear and cactus water at the open, pear skin and hibiscus in the heart, warm stone in the dry-down. An oil-rich parfum built to unfold slowly — not an alcohol-forward spray built to fill a room.
