Capri

Capri, created by Michel Almairac for the Qatari house Al-Jazeera Perfumes in 2022, is sweet, green and woody in equal measure: everyone who describes it mentions all three, and about half also find it floral and ambery. It is worn by anyone.

Apple gives a crisp, juicy opening with a sugary edge. Caramel follows, bringing a warm, buttery sweetness to the heart, with jasmine adding a floral smoothness. The base is unexpectedly green for a gourmand: oakmoss and moss bring a dry, forest-floor depth, cedar and patchouli add dry wood and earth, and ambroxan gives a clean, mineral, long-lasting amber glow.

The apple-caramel-moss combination suits autumn and spring, daytime and evening alike. It should appeal to anyone who likes gourmand fragrances but wants a green, mossy backbone rather than pure sweetness.
