Cartier’s FIRST MEN’S FRAGRANCE

Cartier also used the term Cologne for the American market, anticipating sales to NEW YORK stockbrokers and TEXAS oilmen 

The ultimate symbol of luxury

The first luxury box, in light gray, hints at what is to come  

The second box is leather, burgundy red with silver trim

At the bottom is a red security seal (sealing wax) bearing the name Parfums Cartier Paris

Inside, a white fabric holder contains a base (metal casing with gold extensions secured by open screws) in argent gray

The oval, transparent bottle in dark brown is heavy and of exceptional quality

The base is reminiscent of the famous Cartier cigarette lighter

DESIGNER : Rosseau Xavier

The team of perfumers was led by Frenchman Daniel Molière, using raw materials from Givaudan

Curated, distributed, and guaranteed by the Italian company LMC – INTERNATIONAL S.P.A., Milan

In the early 1980s, Santos de Cartier was by far the most expensive men’s fragrance!

AROMATIC RAW MATERIALS: (BOTANICAL – MINERAL – ANIMAL) AND SYNTHETIC (CHEMICAL):

Lemon – Basil – Bergamot – Lavender – Neroli – Juniper berry (cypress – ripe fruit) – Verbena (leaves) – Celery absolute (Apium graveolens – celery seeds).

Galbanum – Clove – Cumin – Geranium – Nutmeg – Rosemary – Thyme – Black pepper – Vetiver

 Coconut – Vanilla – Oakmoss – Cedar – Patchouli – Sandalwood (Mysore) – Castoreum – Ambergris.

The fragrance’s quality and wealth of natural ingredients are also evident in its use of three or more solvents, since absolutes, concretes, and resins are semi-solid and highly viscous

A luxurious, intensely sensual, incredibly masculine fragrance

A bold, magical, peerless fragrance

A fragrance as refined as Cartier jewelry

A fragrance of power, second to none

One of the finest fragrances for mature men of all time

A masterpiece

As you will see in the photo section, there are no photos of the inside of the box or the bottle, because it would not be right to do so and deprive the buyer-collector of the joy and pleasure of being the first to open a product after many decades.
