Soleil de Capri Montale
2
The worst flavour of Capri Sun.
Honestly, I kind of despise this fragrance. It is so loud and sweet - and I absolutely don't get how it's supposed to be "bright and refreshing" as many have described it.
To me, this is a spiced, over-sweet, citrus-forward candle that an all-ladies nursing home would have burning. My only wonder is if, maybe, I got a bad bottle or something - because I've let the thing macerate for the last YEAR after the first few sprays, hoping it would show what everyone else is seeing... but no luck.
Orange and spice bagged tea, plus smashed kumquat, plus a pound of sugar, smooshed into a candle. If that's your thing, well, you'll be pleased to know that it lingers forever and is pretty damn loud, too, so you'll definitely be getting your money's worth.
For me, though? It's a deeply regretted blind-buy accompanied by a strong "yuck" factor.
2/10
(Also, not the frag's fault, but the 2/3 full Montale bottle thing is rubbish.)
