The note pyramid of La Capitale is built as an expressive line of development, where notes flow without rush and without gaps. The creative approach of Xerjoff is clear in details that define the fragrance identity. Every decision feels deliberate, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de parfum supports the depth and body this composition needs.
The internal accord map is shaped by these accords: Balsamic, Citrus, Gourmet and Floral without random overlap. Additional accords such as Fruit, Amber, Leather and Spicy enrich the profile without taking over. The gender direction is unisex, which clarifies the composition character. In longevity terms Very high points to a sustained drydown presence.
In the first seconds you sense vibrant berry opening notes: Caramel, Labdanum, Peach and Strawberry.
In the middle phase you sense Ambergris, Ginger, Leather accord, Rose and Saffron holding a cinnamon-nutmeg direction.
At olfactory-group level the profile is anchored in Ambery, Balsamic, Fruit and Spicy. The palette also extends to Sweet, Leather, Floral and Gourmet.
Overall La Capitale sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the central phase adds depth, while the drydown anchors the memory.
