Déclaration Eau de Toilette — Cartier

Cool green cardamom and bone-dry bitter orange over cedar, as wearers tell it, with a warm cumin edge that divides people: sensual skin to some, stale clothing to others.

About our sources.

Cartier publishes a note list for Déclaration Eau de Toilette without tiers.

• Notes (as listed, untiered): Cardamom, Cedar
• Why no pyramid: Cartier's current copy centres Déclaration on cardamom and cedar and does not publish a fuller note pyramid.

Notes describe the scent; the ingredient list is on the packaging.

Reports disagree about the extent or effects of changes to Déclaration Eau de Toilette.

Dated bottles and long-time owners point to some change, but its size and date are unresolved. A claimed confirmation from the house is second-hand, and current owners report everything from near-disappearance to seven to ten hours of wear. The newer Eau de Parfum and Parfum are separate products, not stronger versions of this one.

A batch code alone does not tell you which formula is in a bottle.

To check a particular bottle, ask Cartier or the retailer about its batch code. Owners' side-by-side comparisons are not confirmation from the house.

Déclaration Eau de Toilette is sold as Eau de Toilette (EDT), a label generally used for a lighter fragrance concentration than eau de parfum.

The labels are not standardised, they do not predict longevity or projection, and versions sold under the same name can differ in composition.
