What does Panthère de Cartier (Parfum) smell like?

Both its longevity and sillage are rated strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. It reads feminine and classic.

It opens with mandarin orange and grapefruit, brightened by orange blossom, ginger and pepper. In the heart, tuberose, jasmine, gardenia and ylang-ylang build the floral body. The base settles into amber, vanilla, patchouli and oakmoss, warm, sweet and resinous.
