I will spare you the Eight & Bob brand rant (I'll save that for Eqypt) and just stick to the facts of what Cap d'Antibes is. The opening is a very green and pleasant actually with a really authentic feel of fresh vetiver, grasses and some sweetness. This sweetness is being provided by the main element which becomes very apparent very quickly and that's violets. I actually think this is a good combination with the greeness because it blends well with a superb, juicy cucumber note which never once goes that awful way it can. There's a woody hint of birch/cedar and maybe the oakmoss? but it doesn't really serve to make this less powdered or relentlessly about violets. I quite like it but for the price I wouldn't bother. Update: Upon wearing this today I'm actually quite impressed with the remarks I've had already and although I have only just applied it really my sillage trail was commented upon some 15 mins after I had exited the room. Two things to note it was my mum who commented on it and she has a very good sense of smell and it really is freshly applied but hey still pretty good. I have to say I liked it the first time but I really like it now, shame I know it fades but I can't fault the way it starts out and if you are a fan of violet scents this brings some nice attributes to the table.
