L'Envol
L'Envol by Cartier is a masculine-leaning eau de parfum from 2016 in the premium price tier. It opens with honey, moves into violet and iris and dries down to guaiac wood, musk and patchouli. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Honey Sweet, waxy and slightly animalic. Can smell dirty in large doses.
Heart
- Violet Powdery, sweet and a bit retro. Parma Violets in flower form.
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
Dry-down
- Guaiac Wood Smoky, tarry and slightly sweet. Like a bonfire and roses.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
