What does A Capella smell like?

It opens with bergamot and mandarin orange, cooled by dew drop. In the heart, ivy and violet leaf bring a green note while rosebud keeps the floral side soft and slightly sweet. White woods leave a woody, powdery base underneath.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and few choose winter. It leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office, and most voters read it as feminine. Veronique Gabai Mimosa in the Air and Creed Fleurissimo have a close profile.
