Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth

After reading reviews, I decided to try a sample, even though I don't like lily. But, to my surprise, I don't smell it here, instead, tuberose sounds very bright, although it's not in the pyramid. Honestly, I don't understand where it came from. In the end, it turned out to be another white floral fragrance, and I always have difficulties with those. I don't detect vanilla or vetiver, the white flowers just overshadowed everything. But, I admit, the fragrance is really well-balanced, elegant, and beautiful, just not for me 😅

At first, you hear the soft sound of white and yellow flowers - ylang, as well as a rather unusual vanilla lily. But then a sharp tuberose appears, fresh and pungent, with mineral powder and sunny neroli notes

What a wonderful fragrance! Lily and vanilla create simply a stunning combination, and light bitter notes add interest. It reminds me of something familiar, but at the same time, it's something fresh and light. There's no saffron here, and that's great, because the composition turns out airy. And the salty notes seem to transport you to a walk along the promenade, where the wind plays with your hair. A true feast for the senses! 🌸

So I finally tried this fragrance! The lily turned out surprisingly delicate; on a blind test, one might even think it was gardenia. Vanilla added warmth and softness to it. The fragrance is truly noble and has an intriguing mystery ))

Wide-brimmed felt hats that almost completely hid the face were part of Yves Saint Laurent's collections from the very beginning of his career. The designer always believed that a woman should have the opportunity to hide her emotions if she wished. This tradition came from the East, which Saint Laurent loved very much. When I first encountered Juliette Karagueuzoglou's Capeline fragrance, I was struck by its lily scent, which is unlike anything else, even for me, a lover of this flower.

The lily here is mineral, but not quite. The main notes are lily and vanilla. And this is why Capeline struck me so much. Lily notes are common in perfumery; they are present in many white floral and floral-aquatic fragrances, even if the manufacturer doesn't declare them. In Capeline, the lily is presented in a classic floral-aquatic style, but with an unexpected treatment-with salt and a bright mineral note.

Karagueuzoglou creates an effect where the nose perceives sea salt crystals on the petals of yellow lilies. Yes, yellow ones. The perfumer managed to convey not only the scent but also tactile sensations, creating a contrast between the roughness of the salt and the tenderness of the petals. But for complete magic, the main accord was needed-fresh, creamy, viscous vanilla, which, like sunlight, pours onto the bright flower.

Capeline, in my opinion, brought together the best of three fragrances: Charogne Etat Libre d’Orange, Lys Fume Tom Ford, and Lys Mediterranee Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle. The first gave the idea of vanilla sweetness, but in Antoine Maisondieu's work, this sweetness is not only vanilla but also waxy. Capeline, however, is devoid of this murky grime. The second fragrance inspired the mineral lily-a fragile flower that could crumble into ash. But in the fragrance from

Can't say anything definite yet. The composition seems too modest. Perhaps the creators haven't revealed all facets of the fragrance yet. The wait stretches on, like a shadow at dusk 😔

It's interesting that this perfume isn't about clothes, but specifically about a hat. But, honestly, the wardrobe needs an update! Vanilla and lily remind me of something related to Angel-Demon by Givenchy. And the color... it's kind of strange, doesn't look luxurious, rather evokes memories of something Lutens might have

From the first encounter, this scent seemed quite unpleasant to me. But perhaps that's due to my difficult relationship with neroli and other notes. After spending a whole day with it, I would describe it as a cold, mineral scent that would perfectly suit the Snow Queen. Vanilla is only heard at the very end. There seems to be no sillage. Overall, the fragrance can be classified as noble

Ugh, this lily, it seems it might cause a headache! The note is definitely not simple. The fragrance is certainly worth trying, but wearing it every day - that's a big question mark
