Aria di Capri Carthusia for women and men

I do agree with Evin: feminine and classy, though not exceedingly sophisticated. I have a bottle that I have bought on a trip to the island of Capri, many years ago, but I completely forgot about it. I have just rediscovered it on a shelf and started using it again. It has something of a timeless scent: very harmonious and beautiful. 5/5

This fragrance seems to be no unisex at all, it's quite feminine. On me it's creamy and very slightly aldehydic. It reminds me a luxury handcream when sniffed far from the skin. On the skin it's floral-aldehydic and a little old-fashioned. I can't say it's something original or outstanding, but still it's a quite pleasant scent, not overwhelming good for everyday and evening use and it lasts long enough.

I was introduced to this fragrance by a sales person stating that it was somewhat similar to Chanel's No.5. I cannot entirely agree.

I initially hated aldehydic fragrances when I first started collecting perfumes, however it was due to the fact that I was trying the wrong ones. If everyone had the chance to smell Aria di Capri they may just change their mind altogether.

While the scent is powdery, it's also fresh, a touch lemony, feminine and delicate. There's a beautiful honeyed mimosa note followed by a subtle, yet slightly fruity peach note.

Aria di Capri would make a lovely Summer scent, however it's more for a scenic trip through the countryside in a white sundress on your way to a picnic, rather than a lazy day on the beach.

Despite the fact that the house of Carthusia is rather Mediterranean in its approach, I find this fragrance the least exotic. It reminds me of an English countryside for some reason, not the island of Capri.

The florals are so perfectly balanced in this fragrance, being quite sunny and energetic. Despite its powderiness, thankfully this fragrance doesn't have that all too familiar soapy accord. It's fresh but not clean.

Aria di Capri is supposed to be unisex, however I feel that it leans towards a more feminine side. While this was my favourite out of the Carthusia line when I first tested it, I'm not so keen on it now that I find it a little linear. The lasting power is great however and so is the sillage, which keeps me interested.

Where did you bought this parfume, cause i had it once, but I cant find it anywhere!

I have reciently bought it. I realy love it. I feel myself so special every time I wear it. And I don´t feel that it would be suitable for men or if it is mascualine at all!

Very very feminine and classy!!

What I like in this fragrance is the note of mimosa which appears to "play" very nicely with the green and fruity notes. Like rebella I also find it more suitable for men. The staying power is amazing even though it seems quite a light fragrance. Aria di Capri must be at their best in summer:)

A bottle of Aria di Capri could possible last for a very long time, not at all because it´s bad but because it is strong and longlasting. I received a sample of this from F_A and I sprayed one tiny spray on my wrist and have been surronden by the fragrance since. It is a pleasant, airy and still powerfull perfume. Strong on the flowers but never overwhelming. Smells like a really well done perfume with quality notes. My only problem is that I find a bit masculine, not much, but in my opinion I think this would suit my husband very well. Accept of that I think it is a very mediterrean kind of fragrance.
