Key Notes of Capri
What Does Capri Smell Like
Capri by 19-69 opens with a potent citrus smell, with bitter orange making a distinct impression. The scent then segues into an aromatic blend of juniper berry and mandarin orange leaf, while the underlying note of orange adds a sweet fruitiness to the mix. A hint of almond adds a subtle richness, while cardamom and chamomile infuse the fragrance with a gentle, slightly spicy undertone. A touch of grapefruit brings an effervescent zestiness to the scent, while the pink pepper and Sichuan pepper add a spicy kick.
Gradually, the fragrance transitions into a floral heart, with jasmine making the initial statement. The sweetness of ylang-ylang is also detectable with the exotic aroma of osmanthus and the sharp freshness of galbanum adding depth to the floral medley.
As the scent settles, a clean white musk becomes the dominating smell. The earthy scent of angelica seed and iris is also present, lending the perfume a comforting warmth. A hint of ambroxan completes the fragrance, adding an intriguing muskiness to the citrusy, floral blend. The overall olfactory experience leans towards a fresh, fruity and floral with a spicy, musky undertone.
Review of Capri
Capri by 19-69 is a delightful fragrance that captures the essence of a sun-soaked summer day on the Italian coast. This unisex perfume is a refreshing blend of citrus and fresh notes, making it a perfect choice for those who love invigorating and breezy scents. Its predominant notes of bitter orange, juniper berry, and mandarin orange leaf offer a zesty and sharp opening, instantly energizing your senses.
As the day progresses, the floral middle notes of jasmine and ylang-ylang subtly make their presence felt, adding a layer of complexity without overpowering the dominant citrusy freshness. The base notes of white musk and angelica seed provide a soft, warm finish that lingers, although the scent's longevity could be improved.
Despite being a unisex perfume, it seems to be equally favored among both men and women, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking for a fresh, clean scent. Its suitability for casual, everyday wear adds to its appeal, and it stands out in leisurely and daily settings. However, its sillage might not be strong enough for night-outs or special occasions.
Seasonally, Capri by 19-69 shines during the warmer months of spring and summer. Its bright, fresh scent profile mirrors the upbeat energy of these seasons. It's less suited to cooler months, where its citrusy charm might not resonate as well.
In terms of value, Capri by 19-69 is a good deal for those who appreciate citrus and fresh fragrances. However, those seeking a scent with stronger sillage and longevity might find it lacking. Despite these shortcomings, it's a well-crafted perfume that skillfully balances a wide range of notes to capture the spirit of summer in Capri.
