This one's a divisive bugger, isn't it? For some, it's a 'simple, gorgeous' office-friendly vanilla and violet leaf dream; for others, it's a barely-there skin scent that leaves them feeling ripped off. You'll either love its elegant subtlety or wonder if you've gone nose-blind.

Water Paris copies Cartier's Eau de Cartier - that sparkling yuzu-citrus over a green violet-leaf-and-lavender heart and soft woody-musk drydown. The dupe captures the crisp, airy unisex character but reads flatter and even lighter than the already-subtle original.
