Chloé Eau de Fleurs Capucine is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2010, created by Louise Turner. Eau de Fleurs Capucine opens with Green Notes, Bergamot, Lemon, and Neroli, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Lily of the Valley, and dries down to a base of Musk and Ambrette. Chloé's Eau de Fleurs Capucine carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

This "green beast" is a divisive one. Fans adore its true-to-nature, earthy greenness, while detractors find it cold, metallic, or even like "rotten grass." Its weak performance often disappoints, leaving many wishing for more from this unique scent.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Sport

Its intimate sillage and clean, fresh accords make it suitable for office wear without being intrusive. However, its often-criticised weak longevity and projection means it might not hold up for longer dates or formal events, though it's perfectly pleasant for casual daytime outings.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon
  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Neroli
  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Eau de Fleurs Capucine bursts open with a shocking, sappy greenness, like crushed leaves and snapping galbanum. Bright citrus and aromatic juniper berries initially cut through, but it's the raw, verdant character that dominates. A subtle floral heart of lily of the valley and rose attempts to soften the edges, but often gets lost. The dry down is a delicate, clean musk, leaving a trace of natural, quiet freshness on the skin.
