Capucine
by Fragonard

Interesting. I'd call this an aquatic oriental. Hmmm, not a felicitous combination.
Somewhat rich, somewhat sweet. The green tea note is OK.
Definitely powdery in a fairly straightforward manner.
To be honest, I don't see a lot of depth nor complexity here.
A sweet, powdery, somewhat girlish scent. That's about it.
In the dry-down, vanilla and sweetness increases. Appreciation decreases.

Laurent, you're absolutely right ! I'd just add that it's such a complex fragrance based on opposite sides : it can be either rich and extravagant or as innocent as a baby powder !!

Waow and I mean Waow.
This is a very serious scent it is Oriental and deep like its logo It has a deep oriental purple scent.
It is a one way scent that grows deeper.
The ingredients are making one straight scent.
I do see this scent as a very formal black dress scent or strong colors like red-purple-dark green,
I would not see a shy women wearing this scent it is powerfull with full character.
A more mature lady would wear this scent so well.
But dont get me wrong it is a jewel like a well choregraphed ballet but not for everybody.
A bit like Rolls Royce Grant Extravagant.
Warm Rich Sweet Deep Velvety
