The fig symbolizes the continuous flow of time and offers a wish for long life. In legend, it was the Greek goddess Demeter who first revealed these "fruits of autumn" to mortals. Cultivated for more than 6,000 years, fig trees have a tremendous longevity, some bearing fruit for up to one-hundred years. References to the fig appear throughout the bible, from the Garden of Eden to the parables of Jesus, making it the most mentioned fruit in the Bible. Figs were also the favorite fruit of Cleopatra, and in Athens every inhabitant was known as a "philosykos," which, literally translated, means "a friend of the fig." Although considered a fruit, the fig is actually a flower inverted into itself. Native to areas from Asiatic Turkey to northern India, figs have spread to every Mediterranean country. It was the Greek goddess Demeter who first introduced the fig to mortals as a symbol of long life. This earthy blend combines sweet fig, palm, cyclamen and sandalwood. Years in the making, these precious little bottles contain essences steeped in tradition while transcending expectations. Fresh, fun, easy to wear and easy to layer, these blends have unlimited possibilities to fit with your personal style. And guess what, Pacifica Perfumes are made with natural grain alcohol. On Sale |
