La Panthere Eau de Toilette

I only get pineapple if I overspray and even then, only be the power of suggestion. Without knowing it was suppose to have pineapple in it, it seemed like a citrus floral with that sparkling accord that I thought was aldehydes, but now I understand that's more of everything coming together to be a chypre? This isn't playful and fun, but instead is pretty and pleasant. This is my first La Panthere, and I look forward to trying others. Update from 2021 to 2023: This could easily be a signature scent as it’s unlike anything I have or sampled over the years. It’s green, yes but not like stems or grass it’s more rounded. Simultaneously there is something tart, but not in a fruity body spray way. It’s so contradictory. This is what I wanted Thierry Muglar’s Aura to be. My bottle of that never gets worn, sadly. If you want something unique, but also something most people would find pleasing try this Eau de Toilet version of La Panthere

La Panthere EDT is not bad and similar enough to the EDP in my opinion, but I like the EDP better. This EDT is lighter and fresher, more suitable for warmer weather and maybe easier to wear for some, but it‘s also a little sharp and less complex. Like its predecessor this is based on a creamy, only slightly animalic musk, white florals and a chypre structure. In addition to that it‘s also quite green and grassy, which I assume comes from the lily of the valley, a note that often ruins perfumes for me. It could be worse in this fragrance (or better, if you look at it from the perspective of an lotv-lover, I guess), but it‘s definitely noticeable in this. The fruity notes and rose are rather fresh and tart in here. It all boils down to personal taste - if you enjoy green florals and especially lily of the valley, this will surely work as a lighter version of La Panthere. If you, like me, especially loved the warmer fruit notes in the original and are not into green florals, you‘ll likely not fall in love with this.

So, I am not sure that this one is the Best frangrance I got, but It certanely is unique. I don't get a prominente note, but it works well and I could say it is classy.

Beautiful scent. Light, refreshing, and smooth. I bought it for my gf’s mother for Mother’s Day, but now I want my gf to have something from this collection too. Beautiful bottle. I loved it at first sniff, not head over heels intense passionate love, but I’d feel dishonest if I said “I like it.” I didn’t smell any others, just bought this 2.5oz with 15% discount, asked for a gift box(which was beautiful), and left Macys. So I’m very excited to smell the rest of the women’s Cartier offerings one day.

I do not like this one. Although I am huge fan of other Cartier La Panthere fragrances. This one smells like a cheap shower gel to me. I can't yet point out what it is that annoys me in this sent.
