Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - de Cartier Eau de Toilette
A divisive scent for Cartier, praised as a fresh, clean masterpiece for warm weather, yet lambasted by many for its vanishing act. If you want something subtle, clean and elegant for your gym bag, this could be it, but don't expect it to last.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Waterfall Eau de Parfum
If you're after a loud, classic freshie that shouts across the room, this is your guy. Some will love its unapologetic citrus-floral punch, others will find it a bit too 'old-school sport cologne' for their taste.

Season and Occasion Fit

de Cartier Eau de Toilette

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

With its subtle projection and short longevity, this fragrance is ideal for office wear, casual outings, or even a post-workout refresh, as it's unlikely to offend. It's less suited for dates or formal events where stronger projection and lasting power are generally desired.

Waterfall Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Also Works:
Spring Summer Autumn Winter

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its beastly projection and strong presence make it a less-than-ideal choice for a quiet office setting. However, its fresh and clean aquatic-citrus profile is perfect for casual wear or even light sporting activities, though it might be a bit too brash for formal events.
