From your scent profile
Brecourt Captive Eau de Parfum is a creamy, sweet floral that opens on jasmine sambac and orange blossom, and it is made for women.
Skunky's take: Floral accords up front; keep it from the bees.

CreamyWhat does Captive (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Jasmine sambac and orange blossom lead the top, while neroli, almond milk and heliotrope in the heart soften the floral line into something creamy with a light fruity touch. In the base, blond leather, patchouli and frankincense give the dry-down a warmer, deeper feel.
Voters find its longevity strong and its sillage good, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a tendency. Soft and sweet, it reads as a feminine scent. Rich Blend Intense for Women and Zara Ivory Moon have a close profile.
