What does Eau de Cartier Essence d'Orange smell like?
Most voters pick spring and summer, with leisure, daily and business wear leading the occasions. Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Votes on masculine and feminine character are nearly even. It has been discontinued.
It opens with bright, fruity bergamot and orange. Violet in the heart adds a soft, powdery floral touch, and Virginia cedar and patchouli give it a woody, lightly spicy base.
