I wear this one in colder weather and just love it! It stays for a few days on my blazers. You can smell it in the air as you walk past them hanging on the peg. I find it really lasts and projects very well off my clothes generally. People love the smell on me, and a particularly attractive lady working a local coffee shop was virtually swooning while serving me lol She said I smelt so lovely. I really recommend, if you're a guy, dressing this one up. A nice blazer and white shirt, or fitted sweater (not too thick) is perfect. It's such an elegant and, dare I say, classy fragrance.
I agree, Portrait of a Lady with that incense note makes it spectacular. When I went into the Frederic Malle shop, I smelled everything and couldn’t leave without buying a bottle of POAL. This afternoon, I walked into the Dyptique shop and the manger handed me a bottle of Eau Capitale and I left with a bottle of it. I love it. And I love going into the shops because those great sales people really understand how to keep you coming. My big advice for perfume purchasing is to go into the shop, buy something (yeas, it’s more expensive than buying on the great market, but you’ll leave with so many samples, a fair share of other products they offer, and a good feeling. I love scents that were once considered more masculine and am so happy that attributing mas/fem traits to scents is thought of as ridiculous.
I've just started watching this video. Leaving this comment before I really watch it. I love eau capitale! I find it's on a continuum of rose and Patchouli with POAL and Epic Woman in terms of wearing experience. To my nose, eau capitale is the easy wear one like the cool younger sister, POAL is the boss sister who is sophisticated and sexy in equal measures. While epic woman is a matriarch with such character and depth, but she still has feminine beauty and alure. I love all 3. Thank you so much for this review.
As always, you bring your knowledge and charisma to your subscribers!! I always look forward to your channel, and I know your faithful subscribers do as well!! 😃😃
I haven’t because it’s not yet available in my country, but it’s on my sniff list. I am very fond of Diptyque, and although their recent releases were not my cup of tea I am excited about Eau Capitale 🤗
@@Persolaise Well, it’s light. I know that the community considers Portrait of a lady as being the best, but for me it’s unwearable, and so is lyric. Ferrari might be the perfect car, but Lexus is better. ;)
I’m really enjoying my Eau Capitale. It smells very Parisian to me, a Smokey cafe at night, but an older Parisian feel. I think its a unisex perfume.loving it
I only tried Diptyque eau Capitale once, and in all my honesty, what I was reminded of was all the negative reviews which I had read on POAL in the past. Specifically, ones that made me think I would never be able to use POAL myself (I’m a guy in my late twenties). That said, I love POAL madly. And Capitale is unfortunately so many things that I don’t want POAL to be. /:
This is fascinating: a perfume that encapsulates all of the things we DON’T like in a perfume we LOVE 🤔 I feel I should write a whole blog post on this. Thanks very much for watching.
I am man and I like this! I bought it for me. Am I wrong to use it? And please where I can find the wallpaper, “the gorgeous graphic” from 12.00 min? You are the best! Watching you from Romania!
You’re absolutely not wrong! If you enjoy it, then keep wearing it. That graphic is from the Diptyque press release, so I don’t think it’s available for sale anywhere. Thanks very much for watching.
Really starting to get into your channel.. I love your articulation and crispness in elocution. I do wish your amazing ness was shortened just a little. I have times I prefer 24 minute videos, mainly when I’m driving but, would love it if you got it down to 10-15 mins on one fragrance.. I would smash out more of your reviews if they weren’t so long.... But....Fantastic reviews non the less..
Hello Dariush, how about a Do Son review? Not a new one but awwwmazingly elegant. You seem to have a lot of rose lovers in your following; guess I need to broaden my pallet to include more rose. Did order a 10mil of Portrait, can't wait. I will surely let you know if you have a new convert.
No it’s not like POAL it has rose patchouli like POAL and that’s where similarities end ... argh this dries down to greener smell and has pink pepper in it

Thank you. I always look forward to interacting with all of you!
Fell in love with this one,for just a quick sniff of a sprayer….i was in heaven.Magic happened❤️❤️
That’s so wonderful. Thanks for letting me know.
Tuning in from Oregon wow didn’t know you had a big family that’s awesome well thanks for making more videos makes my after work time more enjoyable
That’s such a sweet thing to write, thank you. And thanks for watching 😊
Great review! I have this and find it easier to wear than Portrait of a Lady! Both beautiful!
Thanks very much for the kind comment. So far, I’ve been taken with Capitale 😊
Thanks for the recent reviews! Looking forward to trying this one when it's available again in New Zealand
Let me know what you make of it.
Thanks very much for watching 😊
Its available Mazed Maverick has done a first impression and Unboxing
Eau Capitale layered with Don Son edt is beautiful ❤
Sounds good.
Thank you for your review Persolaise! I am one of those who were hoping to hear your opinion about this one ;) Looking forward to the blotter update.
Thanks very much for watching. Have you tried the perfume yourself?
I haven’t because it’s not yet available in my country, but it’s on my sniff list. I am very fond of Diptyque, and although their recent releases were not my cup of tea I am excited about Eau Capitale 🤗
I hope you like it when/if you try it.
I am a big fan of leather scents.. my favourite being bel ami and Antaeus but eau capitale was love at first sniff. It’s perfect. Maybe the best rose?
Oh wow, that's praise indeed.
@@Persolaise Well, it’s light. I know that the community considers Portrait of a lady as being the best, but for me it’s unwearable, and so is lyric. Ferrari might be the perfect car, but Lexus is better. ;)
So do you like Eau Capitale? There’s not many reviews out there on it so trying to decide if it’s work a blind buy 😆 I do love rose and Patchouli
Like -- yes. Love -- probably not. I found the drydown somewhat off-putting.
Many thanks for watching.
Thank you !!! I was most interested in the chypre aspect. Possibly this is not one for me. Glad to hear it reviewed.
Ah, ok. Which bit of the review ‘turned you off’?
Thanks for watching.
Persolaise Perfumes - not the review. Just not a great rose user.
Fair enough 😊
my absolute favorite. so much love.
Good to know -- thank you.
I’m really enjoying my Eau Capitale. It smells very Parisian to me, a Smokey cafe at night, but an older Parisian feel. I think its a unisex perfume.loving it

No problem.

The videos always evolve at their own pace 😉
The opening,to get to the bottle,I also had a big struggle:))but it was Tempo.
Ha! Later, I noticed that there are actually instructions for doing it properly.

Oooh, now I'm feeling nervous. Please let me know what you make of Portrait!
@@Persolaise Only b/c you asked me to report back. Just rec'd Portrait today. Mind BLOWNleast presumptuous of ways
Yes! 👍
At minute 9, already ordered the book!
Wow! 😯 Thank you so much.
How is this different from the Eau Rose by Diptyque?
Thanks for watching. This is a much deeper, chypre-style composition.
No it’s not like POAL it has rose patchouli like POAL and that’s where similarities end ... argh this dries down to greener smell and has pink pepper in it
I agree they’re not clones.
Thank you for watching.
Does this smell like Paris- Paris from Chanel?
From memory: no, not really.
Did Madame Persolaise enjoy this scent .
No, not especially.
👍🏻👍🏻🥰
😊
too much talking and not enough reviewing
Thanks for the feedback 😊
Keep it short too much non relevant info
Thanks for the feedback.
We watch Persolaise for ALL the words! @Persolaise, you do you!
@@GitanaRusa2012 I totally agree!
