La Panthère

"Sophisticated" sums it up very nicely.

REALLY love this perfume. So does my mom... and I get compliments when I wear it out to sophisticated events (dinners, work events, etc).

Love!

A luxurious scent that is perfect for winter... I’m in love!

I love this BUT

I absolutely love this fragrance, BUT, unfortunately it fades away rather quickly. By mid-day at work the scent is gone and when I go out at night it disappears within 3-4 hours.

I had the opportunity to test this perfume in a sample that I got along with my Sephora order. I didn’t expect too much about this but I’m really impressed with the notes of this perfume it’s floral but just the right amount that makes it the perfect everyday fragrance that can even be used for a night out. I already added to my list of loves because I have a very large perfume collection that I want to use but who knows I’ll get it sooner than later

Not as strong as it should be.

I absolutely adore this fragrance. I recieved a sample of it while at the Cartier manson location on Fifth Ave in NYC. The tiniest of spray lasted all day. When I ran out and was not able to order from Cartier directly (cross border shipping issues) I opted to order from Sephora. The shipping was fast and was well packaged. However the fragrance is not nearly as strong as the sample I had. It’s almost as if the perfume is past it’s prime. Very disappointed. I put on 3 sprays, the scent fades within a few hours. Will look at buying directly from a Cartier store next time I’m in the US.

my everyday scent! this is very different on the skin than in the bottle and seems to be unique to everyone who wears it. on me, it's a light floral with undertones of powder and spice

I am IN LOVE with this perfume! This isn't your usual fruity and sweet perfume...is very musky and sexy and a little goes a long way. For me, this is more of a night out/special occasion perfume. The first time I wore this I could not stop smelling my wrists. A lot of other perfumes disappear after a while on my skin, but this one lingers and I can still smell it on myself hours later. It is a love or hate fragrance, so I would definitely recommend trying a sample before you buy the whole bottle. If you aren't afraid of something bold and different, give La Panthere a try.

As Promised

Exactly as the description reads! It is a floral, so if that is strongly not your thing, you may not enjoy this perfume. I am 'Open' to liking florals, but tend to like sexy or darker, less feminine perfumes. This definitely strikes the right balance of femininity, class, and sexiness. The musk and gardenia are both understated, and I find this to be a straightforward perfect one sprtiz fragrance. I look forward to using the whole bottle. Elegant, grown up, and as they said for the "effortlessly" seductive woman.

Eeww

I received this as a sample. I'm glad that it's a sample because it smells like Febreze, which is just nasty artificial ickiness. My husband says that it reminds him of cleaner.

Love the smell of this perfume. Very feminine. Musky. Romantic. Not fruity or sweet smelling.

If staying power is high on your list...

I've decided to begin trying the fragrance samples I've required one at a time and giving them a yes or no grade. No's disappear so I don't have to rummage through quite so many when shopping my collection for a tiny sample to travel with. As a reference, I think I'm somewhat sensitive to fragrances. I don't like to overdo it. This fragrance was all I could smell all day. And I mean at the end of the day this fragrance was still overpowering. I'm not good with the descriptives, so I can't pinpoint exactly what disagreed with me, but if I didn't enjoy the scent there is no reason to expose others to it. In contrast, today I'm trying Cartier Déclaration L'eau and I am finding it just delightful.
