How El Capitán Elixir unfolds on skin, from the first spray to the dry-down.

The dry-down — what stays on skin

About this fragrance

The opening is cool and herbal. Bergamot sharpens the lavender, and mint adds a cooling edge. As that fades, the heart turns warmer: benzoin and amber give a resinous glow, with a pinch of cinnamon for heat. The drydown settles on tonka, vanilla and musk, soft and sweet against the skin.

It balances freshness and warmth well, which makes it easy to reach for across autumn, spring and milder summer days. Rated at five to seven hours, it carries from a working morning into the evening. Wear it for dinners, weekends away or the office, where the lavender keeps it neat rather than heavy.
