Capua by Electimuss is a unisex fragrance from 2020, created by perfumer Christian Provenzano. The scent is named after the ancient city of Capua, renowned for its beauty, luxury and strategic importance in the Roman Empire. Like its historical inspiration, this perfume embodies strength, refinement and warm elegance – a fragrance for those seeking a subtly stylish yet distinctly noble woody composition.

The fragrance opens with a fresh, resinous note of elemi, which feels lightly citrusy while retaining a balsamic depth. This opening is clean and refreshing, yet uncompromisingly elegant – reminiscent of polished stone or sun-filled air in an ancient city.

At its heart, cedarwood takes centre stage, unfolding in all its richness – dry, fresh and slightly aromatic. This note gives the fragrance an architectural structure, a sense of stability and balance. The cedar in Capua never feels heavy; instead, it acts like a stylised pillar around which the scent continues to develop.

The base is elegant and beautifully balanced. Vetiver brings earthy dryness, cashmere wood adds velvety softness and modern creaminess, while amber introduces a warm, balsamic finish with a subtly sweet undertone. The result is a smooth, timeless and pleasantly present woody fragrance with soft projection and excellent longevity.

Capua is an ideal choice for those looking for a clean, sophisticated woody fragrance suitable for the workplace, formal occasions and everyday wear. It is discreet yet unmistakable – like a luxurious fabric without a logo, speaking for itself.
