A fig that you feel, rather than smell. In This World is a wisp of clean green fig, supported by aromatic notes of lavender and sage. Tonka adds hay-like warmth, and violet lends tender sweetness.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
An unhurried afternoon with the windows open, the sharp green smell of clipped stems still on your hands. Its barely-there fig and soft aromatic warmth suit a relaxed, attentive presence: understated clothes, close conversation and no need to fill the room.
How to wear
The transparent green profile is well suited to mild spring weather and warmer days. Start with one or two sprays on the wrists or upper chest for a restrained effect. On warm skin, the citrus and herbal facets should feel brighter, while the tonka-wood warmth gives the softer drydown some weight.
Who it’s for
For those who prefer leafy fig to creamy sweetness, and aromatic freshness to a sharply soapy finish. Its transparent texture and gentle woody warmth appeal to minimalist tastes and wearers seeking an understated fruity-green fragrance.

The nose
Jérôme Epinette is known for precise, contemporary compositions that give distinctive ingredients space to breathe. His work for Byredo and Atelier Cologne often balances vivid fruit or floral facets with streamlined woody structures. In This World reflects that approach through transparent fig, aromatic greenery and understated warmth.
Collaborators
Liis founders Leslie Hendin and Alissa Sullivan are credited as co-creators alongside Jérôme Epinette. Their contribution is acknowledged at the level of the fragrance’s creation, without a documented division of responsibility for the formula or creative brief.
Liis’s story
Liis treats fragrance as an artistic medium for personal experiences and emotions, leaving its stories open to the wearer’s interpretation. Founded by Alissa Sullivan and Leslie Hendin, the California house favors minimalist compositions intended to become part of daily life, worn with the intimacy of a second skin.
In This World’s concept
In This World celebrates the pleasure of being alive and attentive to the natural world. Blood orange and fig evoke lush terrain, while aromatic greenery and tonka wood give the composition both freshness and warmth. The founders associate it with the Riviera summer atmosphere of Éric Rohmer’s La Collectionneuse, rather than identifying the film as its original inspiration.
Extra info
The official note list uses the distinctive term “tonka wood.” Violet leaf also appears in the brand’s descriptive copy, adding a green nuance to the fragrance’s softer violet character.
