This has to be one of the least inspiring offerings from Cartier. I'm not a huge fan of the brand but I respect that their fragrances possess a degree of quality and focus. For example the bravery of a luminous rose scent for men or a cardamom heavy, spicy citrus but this is not what Edition Noire is about. It opens with light citrus which seems quite pleasing then the monotony begins. It's a accord of light amber and woods which doesn't inspire me at all. It's generic, fresh, reasonably enjoyable, wearable but without feeling cheap. (well maybe a little) certainly not the worst release in recent times. Yeah so a little bit boring I'm afraid, shame really because the original Pasha is a real favourite of mine. I don't know what's more disappointing? This fragrance... or the fact that I actually agree with Wes for a change?
Smells like a nasty, cheap, designer sports fragrance. Massive calone with all of the most generic men's aquatic elements from the 90s.
