About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Carat opens bright and stem-green, with bergamot and pear giving a crisp, slightly fruity lift over a distinct green note that dominates the composition. The heart is unusually dense for a floral: hyacinth, tulip and narcissus bring a cool, slightly bitter spring-garden character, while lily, honeysuckle, violet and ylang-ylang layer white and yellow floral softness beneath. The dry-down settles into mimosa and white musk, powdery and clean rather than sweet.
Collectors should expect a green-forward floral rather than a heavy bouquet — the accord breakdown (green 100%, floral 87%, yellow floral 80%) tells the story. It suits wearers who like hyacinth and narcissus fragrances, spring daytime wear, and anyone seeking a polished, powdery-musky finish without gourmand weight. Because Carat is a later Cartier release, availability is worth checking before committing; sample first if you are sensitive to green or powdery accords.
中文簡介
Carat 以綠意開場,佛手柑與梨帶來清透微果香,綠葉調貫穿整體,係香氣最鮮明嘅主軸。中調花束相當密集:風信子、鬱金香與水仙帶出微苦而清涼嘅春日花園感,百合、金銀花、紫羅蘭與依蘭依蘭再添白花與黃花嘅柔軟層次。基調落喺含羞草與白麝香,粉感乾淨,唔會過甜。
整體係綠調主導嘅花香,而非濃厚花束,適合喜歡風信子、水仙氣味嘅人,春季日間使用亦相當合適。由於屬較後期推出嘅 Cartier 作品,入貨前宜先確認供應;對綠調或粉感敏感者建議先試香。

A batch code cannot prove authenticity on its own, but it can expose contradictions — a code that decodes to a date before the fragrance existed, or a bottle and box that disagree.
