Cartier Eau de Cartier Essence de Bois description
Eau de Cartier Essence de Bois is a resplendent violet-based perfume, despite its name. There is no wood in this fragrance, only layers of violets, lavender, spices, and musk - with a soft hint of bitter citrus at the top.
It is a smooth, soothing scent, wearable both day and night with ease. A touch of oud in the heart firms up the florals nicely, without depriving you of their velvety softness.

Smells amazing, but doesn't last long
I love the initial smell! A little spice, a little floral and each note starts off strong. It only took a few hours for me to start looking for the smells again though. I wish this would last longer - I had to spray a few more times throughout the day to be noticeable again.

I hated this! Extremely extremely disappointed! I hope all the samples I get aren’t this much of a let down or I’ll cancel my subscription

Gorgeous but doesn’t last long
Unique and complex I just wish it lasted longer so I could enjoy its layers.

Not great.
It smelled a little too much like a perfume my grandmother would wear. It also was very strong.

Strong
Strong when you first spray. 1 or 2 sprays is good enough. Lighter on the skin. Last a good 5-6 hours. A bit strong at first but it settles. Wouldn’t buy the whole bottle.

Too much
It's way to strong to me. I'm not sure what I'm doing because every one I have ordered has smelled like an old lady that's a prostitute and bathed in it.

Not for me...
This scent is too feminine for my tastes, and the "woody" essence of the title is lost under sweeter tones.

Sexy scent
I love this fragrance. I wore this out dancing and it lasted all night. The floral notes stand out more depending on your own body chemistry.

Wasn’t my fave
Wasn’t a huge fan of the scent. It’s a little stronger than I anticipated. Definitely a special occasion scent, not for everyday

Spicy Cartier!
I like the scent, although a little spicy, it has that “I’m a rich Bitch” smell even if I’m not! Lol

A little muskie but mixed with the oil of your skin turn out all right

Cartier
The accent is good, clean but very nonspecific. Just like a clean smelling soap. Not bad but not what I would expect from Cartier. This is just ok.

Not Crazy About It
I thought this was going to be an awesome perfume but it wasn’t. It smelled like an older ladies scent. Even my boyfriend was like NOPE!!!

Does Not Last All Day
At first I was very excited to use this fragrance because of the luxurious connotation with the brand name, but after a week of using it I was not happy. The scent last only a few MINUTES and does not stick. I tried spraying on the bodies “hot spots” but that did not work. I am looking forward to getting a different scent this month

Musky
Its definitely musky and was not my favorite. I also think it would be best as a winter perfume. I feel the under notes of the fragrance are too strong to make it super enjoyable

Cologne Vibes
My first scent bird very very exciting. I enjoyed the Eau de Cartier perfume but it was a bit too strong. Now I don’t mean the scent on my body lasted very long and was strong, I mean it smelled like a men’s cologne. Probably won’t be opting for that again. Otherwise people around me enjoyed it- so it wasn’t totally bad.

I used it up
Me and my husband really enjoyed this scent. He asked me to wear it so often, I used the entire bottle within 2 weeks of me receiving it in the mail. I only wish it lasted on my skin longer. I felt like the scent disappeared very quickly. I think that attributed to me using so much so quickly. I had to reapply too often. Other than that, it’s a great scent. Worth a try for sure. Enjoy! ;)

Horrible smell
I could not stomach the smell it was not feminine to me at all! I think it would work better as a cologne for men. I still would not buy it for my husband. It just wasn’t my cup of tea it was a waste of my month!

...It’s growing on me
It’s and okay scent, at first I thought it was going to be too strong and too woodsy, but it mellows out and is nice. I almost wish it was stronger and that it stayed on longer. It’s okay I wouldn’t purchase a full size of it.

A Little Clean
I loved this cologne due to its "Clean" scent. It reminded me of when you would open a container of baby powder and you get that first whif of fluffy air. It just calms your mind and is great for just quick meet ups.
