Delices de Cartier EDT

My thoughts

I was really excited after spraying this scent as it smelt so similar to the perfume I chose as my wedding perfume - Gucci Envy Me 2 (sadly it was a limited edit) which I adored and holds such special memories for me.  I had to compare the notes in them.

Gucci Envy Me 2

Top Notes: Orange oils and Violet.
Heart Notes: Bulgarian rose and Heliotrope.
Base Notes: Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Vanilla.

Surprisingly the ingredients on the face of it appear quite different but actually the notes are similar - orange/citrus notes, violet and vanilla - the end result to my nose is almost a perfect match -deliciously feminine, sweet and delicately floral with a fading warm vanilla note that speaks of Spring. I don't seem to pick up the fruitiness in the scents but that suits me just fine as I am not a huge fan of fruity scents.


Cartier Delices de Cartier EDT costs approx £56.50 for 50ml
