The Signature of Capua
Elemi, bergamot and cypress give a resinous, green freshness, with tagetes as a sunny touch. Cedar, Egyptian cumin and Indian nagarmotha make the heart dry and spicy, and vetiver, amber and cashmere wood close warm.

What our ParfuMaria team thinks of this fragrance
Capua is cedar with nerve. The cumin gives it a sultry, skin-like warmth you would not expect from a woody scent, and the nagarmotha adds smoky depth. We love the opening with elemi and cypress, which smells like a Mediterranean forest. It is outspoken, so not for the shy wearer. Perfect for an evening when you wish to be seen.
