Oud & Ambre Cartier, released in 2020, sits firmly in the category of a unisex fragrance, belonging to the amber, east, and wood families. This fragrance is the personal signature of perfumer Mathilde Laurent. One of the scents from the Heures Voyageuses De Cartier collection. The fragrance concentration is perfume extract.
Made in France, backed by a long and proud tradition. Oud & Ambre Cartier unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The olfactory structure of Oud & Ambre is shaped as a living composition, where accents shift smoothly and sequentially. The signature of Cartier is recognizable in the way notes appear and fade. Nothing here feels random, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Perfume extract emphasizes the right density and pace of development.
In a unified mixed pyramid the fragrance opens as a single chord with a amber-warm mood: Ambergris and Oud. In this format 2 notes work as one voice, forming amber depth that keeps the opening compact and balanced.
The deeper layers are read as a smooth transition from opening to trail, which gives the structure continuity.
The internal accord map rests on these accords: Wood and Amber forming a compact and readable structure. The stylistic positioning is unisex, which clarifies the composition character.
At the note-group layer the composition is built around Ambery, Wood and Gourmet. From a family perspective the composition sits in Amber, East and Wood.
In summary Oud & Ambre sounds complete from start to finish — the start forms character, the heart develops the core line, while the drydown anchors the memory. This is the type of composition best understood in wear.
