Cartier La Panthère eau de parfum for women combines a fruity opening, a distinctly floral heart, and a mossy-musky base. It will appeal to you if you are looking for a chypre-floral composition built around gardenia, musk, and a velvety chypre note.

Fragrance and Composition

• Fragrance character: chypre-floral
• Concentration: Eau de Parfum
• Launch date: March 2014
• Perfumer: Mathilde Laurent
• Top notes: dried fruits, rhubarb, strawberry, anise, and bergamot
• Heart notes: gardenia, rose, ylang-ylang, orange blossom, and pear
• Base notes: oakmoss, musk, patchouli, and leather

The composition works with a floral-feline accord, in which musk and a velvety chypre note enhance the freshness of gardenia. Gardenia was chosen as a reference to the flower associated with the era of Jeanne Toussaint, the former artistic director of Cartier, whose legacy Mathilde Laurent drew upon during the creative process.

The fragrance will take you on a journey from fruity notes through gardenia and other florals to a mossy base with musk, patchouli, and leather.

About the Brand

Maison Cartier was founded in 1847. Mathilde Laurent has served as Cartier's perfumer since 2005, consciously combining natural raw materials with synthetic molecules whenever the composition calls for them. In 2005, Cartier also became one of the 14 founding members of the Responsible Jewellery Council.

La Panthère brings together the work of Cartier's long-standing perfumer with the legacy of Jeanne Toussaint and the panther motif.
