Fico D'India is Ortigia’s most beloved fragrance — a tribute to the iconic prickly pear cactus with its vibrant orange blossoms that dot the Sicilian landscape. This refined eau de parfum blends juicy fig and warm cedar to create an unexpectedly powdery, sun-drenched scent. Evoking the timeless beauty and slow rhythms of island life, it’s a sophisticated interpretation of fig that feels both fresh and nostalgic — a bottled escape to Sicily’s rugged hillsides and coastal gardens.
