What does Capucci de Capucci (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters call it feminine and classic. Season votes spread almost evenly across spring, summer and fall, with winter a little behind, and leisure, evening and night out draw similar support. Its profile is close to Nina Ricci Nina (1987) and Van Cleef & Arpels First Eau de Toilette.

The top opens with bergamot, lemon, peach and aldehydes, with green notes adding crispness. In the heart, ylang-ylang, jasmine, rose and tuberose make a floral layer with a powdery softness. The base of vetiver, patchouli and oakmoss is dry, woody and faintly animal.
