5 Cartier Perfumes That Need To Be in Your Fragrance Collection
The illustrious fine jewellery maison has an array of exquisite scents, from La Panthère to Oud & Santal
If anything completes an outfit, its exquisite jewellery and a beguiling perfume, both of which are fundamental pillars of Cartier’s legacy as a luxury maison.
Founded in 1847 by Louis-François Cartier, the brand grew from being a bespoke, artisanal watchmaking business to one of the most renowned high-jewellery making maisons in the world.
In 1981, the maison expanded into the world of perfumery, launching its first fragrance, Must de Cartier, created by perfumer, Jean-Jacques Diener. Featuring notes of Brazilian rosewood, bergamot, and green mandarin, the rich, earthy scent soon became a signature of the house, birthing a legacy of over 100 perfumes.
Whether you’re searching for a rich, spicy, fragrance or a classic, fresh scent perfect for everyday wear, Cartier’s collection of olfactory creations are a final flourish to any ensemble.
Here, discover five of the most iconic fragrances from Cartier.
5 Of The Best Cartier Perfumes That Need To Be In Your Fragrance Repertoire
Cartier La Panthère Eau de Parfum Spray
Cartier’s La Panthère Eau de Parfum references the maison’s famous panther symbol and its first Panthère perfume of 1986. The sweet, floral scent is imbued with top notes of rhubarb, strawberry, anise, and bergamot, while hints of musk, gardenia, patchouli and orange blossom filter through each layer of the scent. Conceived under the seasoned nose of French perfumer Mathilde Laurent, Cartier’s La Panthère Eau de Parfum reflects a chic and rebellious spirit.
Cartier Pure Rose Eau de Toilette
Infused with the fresh, sweet fragrance of roses complemented by woody base notes, Cartier’s Pure Rose Eau de Toilette smells as ethereal as the bottle it comes in. The fragrance is encased in a sleek glass vial adorned with rose details and an elegant pink bow, making it the perfect ornament to display on your dressing table.
Cartier Oud & Santal Eau de Parfum
A warm, earthy aroma characterised by notes of smoky sandalwood and sweet plum syrup, Cartier’s Oud & Santal fragrance is ultra-indulgent. Featuring fresh green notes, the scent is finished with a rich, earthy essence and a subtle balsamic twist.
Cartier Carat Eau de Parfum
Cartier Carat epitomises the glistening brilliance of diamonds in liquid form. Featuring notes of violet, lily, hyacinth, ylang-ylang, narcissus, honeysuckle and tulips, each ingredient represents a colour of the rainbow, evoking a spectrum of both fragrance and colour. Imbued with vivacious crystalline energy, each spritz of Cartier Carat will leave you feeling sparkling and fresh.
Cartier Baiser Volé Eau de Parfum
Less is more when it comes to the allure of Cartier’s Baiser Volé Eau de Parfum, as it is a potent perfume. The white floral scent is captivating, shrouding the wearer in a warm powdery scent infused with the essence of a blossoming lily flower. Completed with notes of penetrating spice and citrus accords, the scent encapsulates crisp morning air and the break of dawn.
