Cartier Baiser Fou is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Mathilde Laurent. Baiser Fou opens with Raspberry, settles into a heart of Orchid, and dries down to a base of White Chocolate and Vanilla. Cartier's Baiser Fou carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one's a proper divisive scent. Some reckon it's a classy, unique gourmand, while others are convinced it's a horrific, cheap mess that smells like everything from fish to rotting pickles. Definitely not a safe blind buy, then, but intriguing for the adventurous.

About

Baiser Fou kicks off with a tart, almost green raspberry, far from your usual sickly sweet berry. It then evolves, intertwining with a soft, powdery orchid that's more abstract flower than specific bloom. The dry down introduces a creamy white chocolate and vanilla, creating a subtle, elegant gourmand that often defies expectations of overtly sweet notes. It's a complex journey from sharp fruit to a gentle, comforting base.
