My favorite fruity leather fragrance is Crème de Cuir by BDK. Unfortunately la capital doesn't work for me. But the fruity leather combination is super sexy 😍

Interesting. I did not like Creme De Cuir. I still have the sample somewhere in my drawer lol. Fruity leather is a vibe indeed

Glad I’m not the only one, Ai. It didn’t work for me either but I’m pretty sensitive to leather notes overall

Lordy, I might have to unsubscribe from your channel because now I need this one, too. 😂 Love peach and leather notes. Blind bought Cassiopea and my first Bond 9, Madison Avenue. Both arrived today and so happy with both. Thank you for all of the great reviews and looking beautiful while doing them❤

Hi Santa! I fell for the hype and blind bought La Capitale last year, but at a good price. I was expecting a stronger scent due to the leather and oud notes, but I agree that it’s a soft fragrance that can be worn year round. I’m not the biggest fan of strawberry and peach notes, so it was just a like for me. However, when I layered with Kayali Vanilla 28, it is now a love and it lasts longer than 5 hours. Starlight is on my wish list. - Ms. Charlette

Hi Ms. Charlette. (I like how you end your comments btw) I can see layering it with kayali vanilla 28 working well. Yay Starlight!

Reminder: Do not blind buy this! I don’t get the hype. It is a strong no for me.

La Capitale is a Beautiful scent. I bought it last fall for my birthday, and I love the fruity leathery scent. It’s super sexy. I can’t wait for your review of Starlight, it’s in my wishlist. It’s the holiday season in a bottle.

this is the La Capitale review I needed! I love how you break it down into points that consumers want to know e.g. strength and longevity.

Yes, my Dear Santa, I love this scent, definitely elevated fruit scent. I recently added it to my collection after seeing how much you loved and wore it the last few months. To me it’s Amouage Overture little sister, but a lot more toned down. It’s not va va voom like that one. Love it for my special nights.

It sounds like it smells good. It was on my list but now I'm second guessing since you said it only lasted 5 hours. I'll have to get a sample and check it out. I want a nice year round Xerjoff scent.

Hey 👋🏾 your make up is gorgeous! Love the review. I agree with you, longevity is about a 6. I love LaCapitale and will repurchase it once it’s done. Compliment getter for sure! People ask “what are you wearing?” SN: I love to layer it with Delina Exclusif 👩🏾‍🍳💋

Thanks for the kind words. Yes you see what I mean about this scent.

OMG Santa, this scent has bee sold out and "on it's way" to New Zealand since Spring (September 2023), and I've been trying to purchase for that long, since I found out I LOVE strawberries, peaches and caramel combo (both in fragrance and in food). Fabulous review, as always! Here's hoping they eventually restock this beauty. Along the same line, I've also been waiting to blind purchase Venom Incarnate, by Stéphane Humbert Lucas 777, which also features a similar scent profile, but it's not available in New Zealand... Here's hoping you review that one soon, because as soon as I'm in the States (July-August), I'm pulling that trigger!!!
