Adults

By Kilian Adults dupe, inspired by the original

By Kilian’s Adults is a smooth, grown up fig scent, pairing a fresh citrus and green fig opening with a soft, creamy woody base. Our interpretation carries that character in a long lasting Eau de Parfum, made in the EU. This fragrance has since been discontinued, which is part of why our interpretation exists, to keep the scent within reach.

The Story Behind the Scent

By Kilian is known for polished, luxurious fragrances, and Adults plays a green fig against warm woods. Bergamot and lemon open it bright, a green, milky fig and a touch of vanilla fill the heart, and a base of cedar, sandalwood and amberwood keeps it smooth and refined.

How Our Version Compares to the Original

We do not claim this is identical, because no interpretation is. What we have built follows the same fig woody signature of the original, rebuilt at up to 40% perfume oil so it projects clearly early on and lingers longer than a typical spray. A little goes a long way.

Who It’s For

It suits anyone who likes a fresh, creamy fig scent that feels refined. It works spring through autumn, day or evening, and wears as a unisex fragrance.
