The Cartier Pasha de Cartier Review

When a fragrance achieves the kind of ubiquity that Cartier Pasha de Cartier has, cynicism is the easy response. The harder — and more honest — question is: why? What is it about this EDT from Cartier that has made it a fixture in so many wardrobes across continents? Released in 1992, Cartier Pasha de Cartier built its following on Aromatic, Fougère, Woody, Fresh Spicy, and years on, it has not lost a step.

A classic aromatic fougère with a distinguished, barbershop feel, embodying timeless masculine elegance.
