Cartier La Panthère Eau de Parfum 50ml is one of the most celebrated modern Cartier women's fragrances — composed in 2014 by Cartier's in-house perfumer Mathilde Laurent. A sensual floral-chypre built around a luminous gardenia heart, it pairs a fruity-green opening of styrallyl acetates (rhubarb, apple, strawberry nuances) with the iconic Cartier panther DNA in scent: gardenia, patchouli and cypress, settling on a refined ketone musk and oakmoss base. Refined, sensual and unmistakably Cartier.
About Cartier

Who it's for
La Panthère suits women drawn to refined, full-bodied floral-chypre fragrances over fresh aquatic or sweet gourmand styles. It is wearable year-round but performs especially well in autumn and spring, ideal for office wear, daytime occasions and dressed-up evenings. If you wear Frédéric Malle Carnal Flower, Chanel Coromandel or Cartier Baiser Volé, La Panthère sits comfortably alongside them with a more chypre-musky character.
How to use
- Spray onto clean, moisturised skin from around 15 cm away.
- Apply to pulse points — wrists, neck and behind the ears.
- Don't rub the wrists; pressure crushes the delicate green-fruity top notes.
- Two sprays of an EDP is plenty; the oakmoss-musk base anchors the fragrance through the day.
Size: 50ml. Presented in Cartier's signature panther-head sculpted flacon — one of the most distinctive bottle designs in modern perfumery.
