What does Capelli d'Oro smell like?

It opens with bergamot, Calabrian mandarin orange and raspberry, while blackcurrant absolute and nutmeg add a light sweetness to the bright start. In the heart, Turkish rose, magnolia and water jasmine set a floral base, and apple and grapefruit keep the green, fruity tone going. The base of cedarwood, musk and sandalwood closes it with a calm, woody finish.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, with leisure and daily wear ahead and office use not far behind. Nearly half of voters read it as feminine, and many also call it modern. Its profile is close to DKNY Be Delicious (Eau de Parfum) and Clinique Happy (Perfume).
