CARTHUSIA Gelsomini di Capri Eau De Parfum Perfume Fragrance 100 ml

Product Information

And it saves us the trip on the crowded ferry, the climb through the narrow alleys crowded with people in summer temperatures. If you’d like something a tiny bit smaller, and more likely to survive the journey home, tiles are a good choice. You’ll see plenty of shops selling these, particularly ones depicting the local landscape, or the blue and white Cross of Amalfi. However, my choice was a shop along Via Lorenzo D’Amalfi, which seems to specialise in cat-shaped homewares. And that’s exactly my kind of souvenir! A Girl in Capri" succeeds in a precision landing: this is exactly where you want to be: in the middle of the scented action and outside the hustle and bustle.

It lies piled up, by now well dried and in whimsical shapes, in a corner, telling faintly salty-smelling stories of life on the sea. Even better, all of these souvenirs have a strong basis in Italian history and culture, truly reflecting the area and people who made them. No novelty Michelangelo’s David aprons here!

But the clarity of Girl of Capri, who is anything but feminine, but who is definitely unisex capable, is a secret tip for you for this summer. What I'm telling you is that "A Girl In Capri" is a summer-sun-sea-holiday pretending beautiful summer scent. I smell lemon, driftwood (woody, a teeny bit musty, like damp wood even) and sea spray with a hint of salt. The grapefruit blossom shows through with a slightly soapy note and very delicate sweetness. I don't detect the musk, even as a powder. I think to myself, he should hold the whole thing together somehow.

What was that about the trees hugging?", I think, as the wind sends another reminder to me of the sea dancing lively below the property. Sorrento is a great town for shopping – the tiny streets just off Piazza Tasso are full of small stores and stalls selling all kinds of local products, from enormous fruit and vegetables to artisan gelato – but one of the most common sights you’ll see is a workshop selling the wooden boxes that the town is so well known for. Skip forward to 1948, and the prior of the Charterhouse discovered the ye olde formula, and sold it to a chemist in Piedmont. This created Cathusia perfume. Whether you believe the tale or not, the more pressing point is the perfume itself: how good is it? It's pleasant here in the fragrant shade, as the grapefruit trees and their many small blossoms smell pleasantly spicy in the sun: it's a scent that exudes vibrancy and stability. If you’re a hardcore shopper, or if like me, you just fancy a poke around the shops every now and then, you’re in for a treat.
