What does A Girl In Capri smell like?

It opens with primofiore lemon, pink pepper and bergamot, bright and slightly sharp. In the heart, grapefruit blossom and spindrift push that freshness towards a floral, fruity side. White musk and driftwood close it out, softening everything into a creamy, faintly woody base.

Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daytime and office wear lead the occasions. Most also read it as feminine. Byredo Bal d'Afrique and Roja Parfums Isola Sol have a close profile.
