you don't have to be a girl to enjoy this!
Around me, everyone is busy and cheerful: the harvest of the first early lemons has been brought in! Now it's time to process them: to boil them down into jellies, juices and to make them into no less delicious liqueurs.
Hard was the work on the steep slopes of the Limoneri, but that is forgotten; there is laughter and singing while the hands know what to do.
The first full jug of deliciously fresh lemonade is ready, lightly spiced with pink pepper.
This has been crushed in the mortar - also for further consumption - so that its strong spicy aroma becomes one with the fresh fruity one of lemons and bergamots.
Here in the old barn is still cooked on a brick stove; preferably with driftwood already previously collected on the beach.
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.
I would gladly take a piece of wood or two in my hand, stroke its water-polished smoothness, and listen to what this wood has to tell.
But I must not; the habitual routine in which everything proceeds, and from which results the serenity and fragrance in the air, would be disturbed.
So I, the guest from Germany, who has made friends with the family and is therefore allowed to be there, was "banished" to a bench under the blossoming grapefruit trees; lovingly provided with thick pillows, wonderfully fresh lemonade (for me extra without pepper; they know my allergy and thought of it in all the hustle and bustle!) and a plate full of delicious biscotti.
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.
"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.
I can almost feel the spray, that fine mist of moisture on my skin.
I would love to help, but can understand that I would only be a nuisance at the moment.
So I enjoy my place under trees, surrounded by aromatic fresh scents, happy people and pleasant warmth.
Not as "A Girl in Capri", it's too late for that: I'm too old; but as a connoisseur of atmosphere, colours, sounds and wonderful scents. They form a harmonious whole here.
Oh, did I mention I'm in Capri?
Lanvin fragrances are rarely loud or particularly heavy. They still carry the charming personality of the company's founder Jeanne Lanvin as their very own DNA.
Thus, this summer fragrance "A Girl in Capri" is exactly what the name implies: joy of life captured in fragrance with the unmistakable flair of this island.
A light sea breeze, a driftwood collection and lots of fresh citrus fruits - that's all it takes!
The holiday impression thus drawn in cheerful colors gives pleasure; it shows magnificent nature, laughing people with bright eyes and a sparkling vitality!
"A Girl in Capri" was created with love for the island and its subsequent users, and is therefore not just any fresh fragrance with a summer kick!
A deep joy in every moment of summer resonates in this serenity and lightness exuding fragrance.
And it saves us the trip on the crowded ferry, the climb through the narrow alleys crowded with people in summer temperatures.
"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.
Thus, the summer holiday this year is secured: "A Girl in Capri" makes it possible!
