The story behind the bottle.
Alberto Morillas crafted Le Baiser Du Dragon Parfum for Cartier in 2003, blending an array of notes to create a fragrance that is both warm and complex. The composition opens with the sweetness of amaretto and almond, quickly giving way to a heart of gardenia, jasmine, and rose. This floral bouquet adds depth and warmth, which is then grounded by the earthy base of cedar, vetiver, and patchouli. Le Baiser Du Dragon Parfum is a unisex scent that embodies Cartier's tradition of elegance and attention to detail.
Apply this fragrance in light layers to allow its full complexity to unfold. The amaretto and almond notes are vivid initially but give way to a warm, woody base that lasts throughout the day.
