Cartier Déclaration is a Parfum launched in 2018, created by Mathilde Laurent. Déclaration opens with Bitter Orange, settles into a heart of Spicy, Cardamom, and Cumin, and dries down to a base of Leather, Cedar, Vetiver, and Benzoin. Cartier's Déclaration carries a Statement verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

This one's a divisive beast, a true love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect a rich, spicy journey that's definitely not for everyone - the cumin note particularly polarises opinion, smelling like exotic spices to some and body odour to others. Definitely sample before committing.

About

Imagine a rich, dark spiced orange opening, quickly deepened by the warm, aromatic embrace of cardamom and cumin. This leads to a sophisticated, dry down of leathery woods, vetiver, and subtle amber balsamic sweetness. It’s got a warm, almost animalic depth with a hint of smoky resin, reminiscent of an old-world study or perhaps a spice market.
