What does Gelsomini di Capri (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Ginger, bergamot and mandarin orange open bright and airy, with lemon and pink pepper keeping that start lively. In the heart, jasmine, ylang-ylang and rose lead, while orange blossom softens the floral texture. The base sweetens with vanilla and amber into a creamy warmth, smoothed out by white musk and cashmere wood.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close without pushing itself on the room. Most voters pick spring and summer, and favour leisure and daily wear, though it sits comfortably at the office too. Most voters read it as feminine. Ormonde Jayne Levant and Tonatto Notte a Taif have a close profile.
