Cartier Delices De Cartier is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008, created by Christine Nagel. The fragrance opens with Cherry, Bergamot, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Violet, Jasmine, and Freesia, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Musk, Amber, and Tonka Bean.

Our verdict on Delices De Cartier: Acquired

Delices De Cartier EDP is a love-it-or-hate-it cherry, divisive for its synthetic edge and powdery drydown. It's not a juicy fruit bomb, so steer clear if you're after something sweet and simple. This one’s for those who appreciate a bit of grown-up complexity and a touch of vintage flair.

About

A complex dance of cherry and spice, Delices De Cartier opens with a tart, almost medicinal blast of cherry and pink pepper, brightened by bergamot. The heart reveals a powdery floral bouquet of violet, jasmine, and freesia, preventing the cherry from becoming overly saccharine. It settles into a warm, sensual base of amber, sandalwood, and musk, with a creamy hint of tonka bean, delivering an elegant and enduring finish.
