I have never purchased a Corolle doll before so I can't compare. I can only judge the doll I received. The doll has weight to it because of the material it is made out of and really does appear to be solidly constructed. Yes, the doll is not hard plastic, but it is not floppy rubber either. (The material "gives" but you must exert a fair amount of pressure for it to do so.) Because of the material I think it could stand a great deal of wear and tear in the hands of a 4 year old child. The wig is thick, of good quality and the clothing is well conceived and very well constructed (no loose threads, sloppy seams, or flimsy material to be found) and the company used velcro so there are no buttons to pop off or zippers to snag. No, the eyes do not close, but the doll has so much personality I don't see this as a flaw. In fact, she seems worthy of her own tv show or book--the sculpt being that unique and well rendered. I think the doll will be big among adult collectors for this very reason. And then of course, there are the added bonuses of the soft, appealing scent characteristic (I am told) of all Corolle dolls and the doll's wholesome appearance. No suggestive dress or face makeup to send dubious messages! Overall, the doll left me with a very, very good impression of Corolle. Also, it is worth noting I have not seen a better price for the doll than at Amazon.

My daughters have always enjoyed Corelle dolls. We have several baby dolls and three Les Cheries. Now my youngest is old enough for a Les Cheries doll and so ordered this new version for her birthday. I am very disappointed in the changes they have made! The dolls used to be made of a harder plastic material, but now she is too soft for a doll this size. In addition, the other Les Cheries Dolls have eyes that close and my daughter was VERY disappointed that this doll does not have that feature. Their prices have remained the same, but it seems that they are cutting corners and lowering the quality of their dolls. So sad.

I am an adult collector and I love these dolls. From the first smell of them to their sweet faces, they are enchanting. I have several used ones that I am using as models while I create clothes for them, and they are quite durable little dolls. My granddaughters enjoy playing with the used ones. They have rooted hair and sleep eyes, except for the Asian doll...her eyes are inset, but no sleepI don't know why. I read that the company changed the African American doll to have straight hair from her original curly hair so that little girls could comb and style it. I have both versions, and you really can't do anything with the curly hair, so it was a good move. The good thing about the new version is that she can also be Indian or Hispanic or Native American. I don't know about any special educational value over any other doll, but they are suitable for 4 years old and up, easy to dress, and seem to hold up well. They can present educational opportunities to those who wish to incorporate them in such things. Since I sew, I can make all kinds of native clothing for different cultures, and these could then become quite educational. Sweet and innocent faces make these a good choice for a doll that is just the right size for small hands.

Honest reviews on Corolle Les Chéries Capucine Fashion Doll

I bought this doll for my 8 year old Asian grandaughter. The eyes were not quite asian enough looking. Other than that it is a very nice doll.

Capucine is truly a beautiful Asian doll. It is fairly difficult to find high quality Asian dolls, so this doll was a great find! Corolle's signature vanilla smell is so sweet and delightful at the same time. You will love her :) She is wonderful for little girls and collectors too. The only slightly sad comment I have to say is that I wish her eyes closed like many of the other Corolle dolls.
