Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper grower, divisive as hell on first sniff but wins over a loyal following. It's not your average freshie - think unique, green, and a touch old-school cool that demands a second chance.
Cool mint and bergamot, the Cartier Roadster signature, are well caught in Carriage. The patchouli-vanilla base is thinner and more generically woody than the original's, and the staying power is shorter.
