A Girl In Capri

Lanvin · 2019

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Lanvin A Girl In Capri is a fresh, citrusy women's fragrance, lightly sweet, with a creamy, woody undertone that suits easygoing daily wear. 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.

By/Rosie Jane

Fresh · Floral · Aquatic

Eau de Parfum

By/Rosie Jane Madie Eau de Parfum is a fresh, aquatic floral for women, where jasmine meets the creamy sweetness of coconut and vanilla. Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, though the number of votes is small, so the picture is tentative. There are no season or occasion votes, which makes it hard to say when it suits best. It has been discontinued. The scent reads as a whole, without a split into top and base. Spindrift and jasmine give it a fresh, floral feel with a green edge, while coconut and vanilla soften it into something creamy and sweet. A synthetic facet sits among the accords as well.
