Why Cartier?
Oud & Menthe fits seamlessly into the compelling works of the Les Heures Voyageuses series. It impresses with quality in ingredients and coordination, as well as with unagitated elegance. Whenever I am introduced to fragrances from the exclusive Cartier ranges, the differences between them and other brands become clear to me. From my point of view, there is hardly better.
Scent History:
Oud & Menthe combines a slightly stale but gentle oud with a wonderfully ethereal powdery mint. They meet in their medicinal properties, which are very delicately pronounced. The typically fermented woody scent is a bit more present throughout than the herbaceous plant, which reveals shy rose geranium nuances and gives the agarwood product a wonderfully light-hearted, light-woody aromatic character. In the drydown, this becomes increasingly softer - I assume due to the use of silky musk - and finally almost resembles a creamy, milky oud-sandalwood combination. The ingredients appear so valuable that the fragrance remains very agile, nuanced and interesting over the entire wearing time, despite its rather simple layout.Durability and Sillage:
Offered in extrait concentration, the perfume easily lasts all day and constantly radiates slightly above skin level. In rooms, it leaves a long-lasting, pleasantly unobtrusive Duftaura. Conclusion:
Oud & Menthe is an elegant, minty-fresh, light, bright, wonderfully aromatic oud fragrance, whose fermentation smell is kept very tolerable. Qualitatively in all respects hardly better imaginable.
