Caprifoglio (Honeysuckle)

What makes Caprifoglio interesting is the honesty of its structure. Citrus top notes that genuinely open bright and cool. A heart that earns the name, with honeysuckle paired with ylang-ylang and a white honey that reads more pollen than confection. The base provides a grounding quality that anchors the brightness above it, creating a fragrance that feels both lifted and settled. This is a scent built for people who know what honeysuckle smells like in the wild, and want to carry a little of that with them.

The evolution

The opening hits bright and clean, citrus oils, bergamot, the clean zest of Amalfi lemons. A brief moment of jasmine and orange arrives before the honeysuckle takes command. The heart is where Caprifoglio earns its name. Honeysuckle blooms rich and full, ylang-ylang's tropical richness layering beneath. White honey reads powdery at first, almost pollen-close, before settling into a richer nectar. Lotus adds a cool aquatic undertone beneath the florals, keeping the whole heart lifted. The oakmoss provides a cool, green element that anchors everything. Benzoin follows, warm and slightly vanillic, building slowly as the florals begin to thin. The drydown is moss and resin, intimate and close, with the honey providing a quiet sweetness that lingers in the base.
