About

Eau Capitale opens with a zesty burst of bergamot and a lively kick of pink pepper, setting a bright, effervescent tone. This quickly blossoms into a rich, velvety rose heart - not a shy bloom, but a full-bodied, slightly green rose. Beneath it all, a clean, woody patchouli anchors the composition, adding an earthy depth without ever feeling heavy or 'dirty'. It's a refined dance between floral and earth, with a sparkling, warm spice undertone throughout. The blending is seamless, creating a sophisticated and enduring aroma.
