Mancera Fig Me Up Eau de Parfum
A 2024 unisex green floral from Mancera, with rhubarb and fig leaf opening onto plum, fig nectar and oud, closing on tobacco, toffee and tonka — fruity, green and warm.
Mancera Fig Me Up Eau de Parfum is a 2024 unisex fragrance built around fig in two forms — the green, leafy top note and the sweeter, fruitier fig nectar in the heart.
What does Fig Me Up smell like?
The opening pairs tart rhubarb with green fig leaf and violet for a fresh, slightly tangy start. The heart is where the fig fruit itself appears, joined by plum, oud, geranium and sandalwood for a rounder, more layered effect than a simple fig fragrance. The base brings in tobacco, white musk, toffee and tonka bean, giving a warm, slightly sweet finish that grounds the green, fruity opening.
- Top notes: Rhubarb, fig leaf, violet
- Heart notes: Plum, fig nectar, oud, geranium, sandalwood
- Base notes: Tobacco, white musk, toffee, tonka bean
Performance and when to wear it
Fig Me Up is typically moderate to long-lasting on skin, with the tonka bean and toffee base helping it hold through the day. Its green-fruity opening suits warmer weather, while the tobacco and toffee base means it also works well into autumn.
Who is it for?
This is a good pick for anyone who wants a fig fragrance with more depth than the usual green-and-coconut style — the plum, oud and tobacco combination gives it a warmer, more grown-up finish than most fig scents on the market.

Spray the heavier scent first, then the lighter one on top. Start with two scents — more than three quickly becomes muddled. Always test on skin first.

AI Review Summary
Synthesised from fragrance data
Fig Me Up takes the familiar fig concept somewhere more interesting — the opening of tart rhubarb and green fig leaf gives way to a heart where plum, oud and geranium add real warmth and complexity, before a surprisingly cosy base of tobacco, toffee and tonka bean settles things down. It's the kind of fig fragrance that appeals to people who've found most others a bit too light or beachy, offering a more grown-up take on the note without losing that fresh, green quality. The tobacco and toffee base make it a natural fit for autumn and early winter evenings, though the green-fruity opening means it won't feel out of place on a warm Highveld afternoon either. If you're looking for a daily wear that bridges fresh and warm without committing fully to either, this is a solid place to start.
