La Capitale Eau de Parfum - Xerjoff
Sweet, and then suddenly not.
Strawberry, peach and caramel open bright and frankly sugary. Saffron, leather and rose then cut across them, ginger adding heat, and the whole thing turns darker. Bourbon vanilla, benzoin and oud finish it rich. Two fragrances in one, and most people prefer one half.
Top notes: Caramel, labdanum, peach, strawberry
Heart notes: Ginger, Iranian saffron, leather, amber, rose
Base notes: Benzoin, oud, bourbon vanilla
Family: Oriental vanilla
Concentration: Eau de Parfum
Best for: Autumn and winter evenings

How it wears
Top notes greet you, the heart settles in over the first hour, and the base is what stays on skin at the end of the evening.
