Déclaration Bois Bleu Cartier for men

This is by far one of Cartiers BEST! Sensual and oriental spices make up this superb redelence..Longetivty just last on this one ABSOLUTE staying power!.By far one of my best oriental and sophisticated fragrances!..

I love this bois bleu. As Vertigo said, the top notes are very citric, later comes wood, not aquatic I agree, but the initial citric stays until the end. And finally we have a good and confortable fragrance, perfect for the everyday use.

I like Declaration Bois Bleu better than the original.
It's a less sweet, light fragrance with a remarkable staying power. For my nose it's just woody, not woody aquatic (fortunately).

Like Vickalena has written, it starts with a blast of citruses.
I get the smell of light woods and a bit of nutmeg. The spices don't make the perfume sharp, it's smooth and very authentic, natural. Not a tiny bit of affectation.

The accord that comes after the top citrus notes is very familiar to me. Reminds me of a smell from my childhood. Now I don't remember whether it was a perfume or a smell from 'nature'. Makes me feel sentimental.
