La Capitale Xerjoff 2019

So, to start with, I ordered a small sample based on recommendations. It was said to be sweet and strawberry-like. Upon the first spray, I was immediately hit by an overwhelming 'standard perfume smell' that I could hardly get out of my sinuses. It’s one of those scents that just doesn’t smell like anything, only like alcoholic perfume. After about 10 minutes, that fades away, at least unless you go directly in for another sniff. And yes, then I slowly start to pick up a bit of that strawberry with cream, somewhere very faintly and gently, one could indeed imagine that. Well, it could of course be that my sample is already going off. Or I simply lack the right receptors for this perfume. In any case, it’s definitely not my thing.
