Very helpful Review 7

A rose is a rose is a rose.

I just noticed that my last review here was over three months ago. This winter has certainly been a rather dreary affair, both in terms of light and scent.

So my heart leapt with enthusiasm today when I discovered "Goutte de Rose" at Düssi-Schnitzler. Immediately I thought, this is going to be great on the skin! And, believe it or not, this is already the third outstanding "Eau de Cartier" flanker in a row (after "Orange" and "Bois") that has completely convinced me without any reservations.

Upon spraying, a rich rose scent immediately dominates (complemented by a hint of iris), whose high quality, clarity, and purity I find truly impressive. (Anyone who loves "Paris" by YSL or "Nahéma" by Guerlain should definitely give this a sniff!) Over time, a warm, woody base note of subtle elegance emerges, reminiscent of "Essence de Bois." Oud in duet with vetiver, which is something special!

What I find truly outstanding is the velvety transition. The base note "carries" the floral aspect, giving it fullness without being overly heavy. The fragrance is of a similar high quality to Dior's Collection Privée, and not even at half the price!

Conclusion: I probably won't stick to my resolution of not buying any perfumes this year. And after the unfortunate decline of the Splash fragrances from Marc Jacobs, I am infinitely grateful to Cartier for filling the unisex gap at such a high level with the "Eau de Cartier" line. These puristic scents have very high-quality ingredients and still come at a fair price point that even the average earning fragrance enthusiast can afford.

Died in Beauty

Today was Cartier day. Today was rose day - with Declaration d'un Soir, a unique male synthetic rose and the Eau de Cartier Goutte de Rose being tested here. Unfortunately, Goutte does not look good. Even though it is much more natural, softer, and totally typical of Eau de Cartier. I find it too transparent and neutral. Although that is precisely the style that this Kölsch glass-like series represents.

EdC GdR starts lightly like a pink summer dress. A feeling of gentle, lightly sweetened pink cotton candy sets in. Violets, roses, cedar, yuzu - everything is there, but so diluted and toned down that you can hardly recognize them. Even the fact that rose is the main theme is not immediately clear without knowledge of the name or fragrance. The whole thing appears too delicate, inconspicuous, and shy. But it also wants to be that way, which makes it hard to criticize. Later, the scent becomes soapier, but changes little and ends that way too. Since it was already so inconspicuous throughout its duration, you hardly notice its end.

The bottle is once again beautiful, like a pink Kölsch. Sillage is low, longevity around 5 hours!

A sweet rose water, where the good lady Laurent took little risk and remained more than loyal to the EdC line. In contrast to the bold Declaration d'un Soir, which she also created, I find this a step back. I expect a bit more from the orange and/or brown representatives of the Eau de Cartier line. They will also be transparent, but I hope that I will like the colors/themes better.

Dewdrops on Roses

~ Inspiration ~
I had only tested "Baiser Vole" from Cartier before and was not convinced. During my last souk, I received a sample of this one, otherwise I probably wouldn't have tested it.

~ Bottle ~
The delicate pink color and round shape are simple and feminine. The name "Goutte de Rose" is a hidden play on words, as in French there is only "Goutte de rosée," which means "dewdrop." Here, they simply changed "rosée" to "Rose," which would correspond to the term "rose drop," but there is no such thing ;)

~ Scent ~
As the name suggests, roses are the centerpiece of this perfume; I hardly recognize anything else. Violets and cedarwood remain in the background and prevent it from becoming too sweet.

~ Longevity ~
On my skin, it lasts about 6 hours (on clothing and hair a bit longer). The scent is light and aquatic, but also intense (for an EDT), so 2 sprays are already sufficient.

~ Occasion ~
A fresh, delicate rose scent that fits wonderfully into the warmer days of spring and summer.

~ Conclusion ~
I am slowly becoming a rose lover!

You're beautiful

"Eau de Cartier Goutte de Rose" has a magical scent of a rose garden.
A hint of violet and a touch of yuzu prevent it from being too one-dimensional, yet the main player is a lightly sweet, truly authentic smelling rose.
And there is hardly more to say than that a test is truly worthwhile.

Charming Companion

I like him, my Rose Cavalier. Only recently, though. But I really do like him.

It wasn't love at first sight, rather on the third, I would say. He courted me for so long until he finally had me in his grasp, or better said, I had him in my shopping cart.

Since he was allowed to move in with me, he has become my daily companion to the office, for shopping, or outings more often. And especially on days like these, when I just want to be myself. Then he accompanies me without suffocating me or pushing himself to the forefront. He is there, by my side, and caresses me gently. A feel-good, cozy scent for me - soft, floral, like being freshly in love. He can even bring a smile to my face. However, he sometimes likes to be asked again and wants to be reapplied. Why not - when I come home, he is welcome to be around me once more.

The name "Eau de Cartier - Goutte de Rose": delivers what it subtly promises - delicate "rosy dew drops".
The color: naturally rosy pink.
The bottle: round to rounder, interesting design, minimalist, but somehow unwieldy in the larger size.
The longevity: quite acceptable for an "Eau de", but by the afternoon, he does become scarce, though he is still quite subtle with me...

For rose-scent-loving delicate noses looking for an unobtrusive, charming companion, he is certainly a sniff-test-me candidate with potential. For me, he is already more.
