The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Must de Cartier Gold, launched in 2015, is a sophisticated Oriental Floral fragrance that encapsulates the elegance and attention to detail for which Cartier is renowned. The composition opens with the fresh green notes of galbanum and green leaves, creating an immediate sense of crispness and vitality. This freshness gives way to osmanthus and jasmine, bringing a delicate floral warmth, while vanilla adds a soft, enveloping sweetness. It's a fragrance that balances brightness with depth, making it suitable for both day and night.

How to wear it

Apply Must de Cartier Gold lightly for daytime wear — the green top notes are bright but brief. For evening, a slightly heavier application allows the floral and balsamic base to come through more prominently, providing a warmer, richer scent.
