Capeline

Capeline, a Powdery Tuberose

Capeline is a refined tuberose from YSL’s more exclusive collection. Our version keeps that feel, opening with mandarin before a creamy tuberose heart settles over vanilla, musk, and a soft powdery warmth.

The Story Behind the Scent

Yves Saint Laurent built Capeline as an elegant, powdery floral, inspired by a timeless piece of clothing. The idea was soft sophistication, refined rather than loud.

That gentle elegance is its appeal. The mandarin keeps it bright, the tuberose makes it creamy, and the vanilla and musk give it a soft, powdery warmth. Our interpretation follows that same refined path.
