La Capitale by Xerjoff is a sweet, amber-leather scent built around ripe strawberry and warm caramel. Labdanum, strawberry, caramel and peach open it soft and fruited, warm rather than purely sugary. Leather and saffron move in through the heart, with ginger adding heat and rose keeping it soft. Bourbon vanilla and benzoin settle the base into something warm, powdery and faintly animalic. Launched in 2018, it tends to be worn by women who like a scent with real weight to it. Voters keep it for winter and autumn, mostly at night, for going out. Most wearers vote its longevity long-lasting. The sillage vote leans strong, so a light hand goes a long way. A 10ml decant is enough to wear it through a run of nights out before deciding on the full bottle.

The house
More from Xerjoff
Xerjoff is a Turin house, started in 2007 by Sergio Momo to make perfume with the richness of Italian design: dense, golden and unashamedly sweet. Most of the range sits in warm territory, with vanilla, amber and tonka bean underneath and saffron, cinnamon or cardamom for heat. A bright streak of bergamot keeps several of them from feeling heavy. Begin with XJ 1861 Naxos, where lavender meets honey over a sweet vanilla base. Erba Pura is the sunny one, a juicy fruit-and-citrus blend, and Lira turns citrus into something close to caramel. For a greener side of the house, try Torino21, fresh with aromatic herbs. Alexandria II shows the darker, woodier face, all amber and powder. Wear a few side by side and you will soon find which Xerjoff mood is yours.
