With patch as a prominent base note, I really thought this would have a sort of earthy-warm-spicy smell. But it’s actually a rather cold-herbal-aromatic scent. I don’t get the aquatics, to me it’s far more reminiscent of icy mountain air, or a winter forest. I think I would have liked it better without that odd little mint note, but overall it’s a decent fragrance. Longevity is better than most! Honestly this reminds me quite a bit of Jessie McCartney’s Wanted. But this one is better blended, less harsh, without the boozy anise/licorice note. A solid like, but I’m not sure if it’s a love yet.
Scent: 7/10
Sillage: 8/10
Longevity: 9/10

this is a funny one… starts quite masculine. but then it settles down, and I smell like a mint chewing gum with a touch of patchouli, which I love. It reminds me slightly of Kenzo Air, but not as dry. If you like this sort of fragrance, that you have a hint of it through the day and when you do you feel like ‘just out of the shower’, you should try this one. an office friendly fragrance, not overpowering, low sillage, lasts about 5-6h if you apply on fabrics. A very close to skin one, you still get compliments on it, though. I like to wear it everywhere due to its freshness. Feels very clean.
I love it.

This is one of my favorite perfumes, I love it so much! It`s not sweet or powdery, I would rather define it as a cold, clean, and very vivid aroma, combining masculine and feminine notes. Better and stronger than the standard version. Don`t know why but gives me the feeling of freedom and open horizon in a very subtle way. Not obtrusive, mild but yet very powerful. Very good longevity and silage on my skin. Hope they will keep on producing it as it is now very rare in Europe.

Fragrance Review For Eau de Cartier Concentree
Cartier
Top Notes
Coriander Yuzu
Middle Notes
Violet Leaf Lavender
Base Notes
Cedar Patchouli Amber
This is a summer time fragrance made up of citrus, purple florals and patchouli, with the lightest traces of clean white amber.
I thought it would be a unisex citrus scent for both men and women to wear in broad daylight in the summer season but this is clearly a feminine perfume. It’s opening is quite strong and long lasting in fact longer lasting than the base notes.
To me it’s a strong grapefruit and lemony mandarin scent. It’s delicious and concentrated like fruit juice. Smells of bitter sweet citrus, of grapefruit that is actually yuzu. The yuzu is a delectable drink on a hot summer day making this scent easy to wear as a daily casual wear perfume with blouses and tops, shorts, jeans, though it does have a perfumy classy aura.
As the grapefruit mandarin lemon yuzu settles down without disappearing, it turns into a distinct lavender and violet. The lavender is stronger on my nose. It’s a beautiful lavender. The violet is there but the lavender was apparent to me as I sprayed it on my wrists and neck and could smell it within a few minutes.
The pairing of yuzu and lavender is well blended but not rounded. This comes off as quite linear and simple, clean and fresh, ozonic, something to wear without any frills. The scent doesn’t seem to dry to me! When it does dry it’s a patchouli that emerges – aromatic, light, soft green patchouli herb. There was almost a neroli quality to it only because the citrusy yuzu is so strong. The amber and cedar are not as potent but there to give it a clean finish.
As it is a clean fresh citrus floral without any embellishments. This is lovely on a summer day in hot weather. It’s meant to be worn to the beach or in a cool air conditioned hotel in Florida or California. This is a beach scent. I will be wearing this baby to my trips to Florida now that my mom’s moving out there for her retirement. Such a pretty summery scent.

For me personally, it smells almost identical to Cartier Vetiver Bleu with some additional mint. A bit more interesting than vetiver.
duh845speagoessenda – :
is it better than normal version. yes. more green . dry down is better. i loved the violet leaf there. because of that i tried lots of violet leaf based fragrances but no. this one was greater each time.
roma zanoza – :
العطر يحمل لمحات خضراء فاتنة تمثلها أوراق زهرة البنفسج التي تبعث على البهجة وأعتقد أنها تظهر مع الوهلة الأولى للعطر في افتتاحيته وليس في قلبه كما هو مدون.
وأجزم أن الكزبرة الموجودة في الافتتاحية هي أيضا للأوراق الخضراء الطازجة وليست للحبوب التابلية الجافة.
يجاور هذه النوتة الخضراء رائجة اليوزو المميزة والتي سبق الحديث عنها في عطر ايسي مياكي الرجالي، ولأنها هي اللاعب الرئيسي في العطر فسأعاود التذكير بها.
اليوزو: نوع من الموالح “الفاكهة الحمضية” تختلف عن الليمون واليوسفي والجريب فروت، فهي كل هذه الفواكه مجتمعة، والتي يصفها الطهاة بأنها نكهة عام 2015. وهي نوع جديد من الفواكه غير معروف، تنمو فقط في اليابان في أعالي الجبال هناك، والتي يقوم السكان المحليون بجمعها، لذلك لا تجدها في أي مكان في العالم سوى المتاجر المحلية في اليابان. وتعتبر نوع من الموالح، حيث أن شكلها يشبه اليوسفي ولونها أصفر مثل الليمون، ولكن طعمها أقرب للجريب فروت
سيزداد الوسط إنعاشا بوجود اللافندر بنسبة لا بأس بها، لكن تظل الغلبة الدائمة للثنائي (اليوزو – أوراق البنفسج) إلى جوار أخشاب الأرز الفرجينية القوية التي ستدعم العطر ليصبح من أقوى عطور كارتييه.
العطر حالة من الجمال الحقيقي الذي يمكن وصفه بتابلوه لمكان ساحر من الطبيعة.
الباتشولي والعنبر في القاعدة هما مكملان بروتوكوليان للعطور ذات الأثر والبقاء لمدة طويلة مع الحفاظ على القبول العام دون إرباك أو إزعاج للآخرين.
diod21 – :
1. Yuzu is an interesting note. I am unaware of any other citrus note that a) shows up so late, and b) lasts so long. It is more of a mid note here.
2. Notice how the “amber” here is described as grey amber, which is ambergris, as opposed to the sweet, resinous benzoin/labdanum/vanilla oriental amber. Fyi. Either way, it isn’t overly prominent to my nose.
3. I personally don’t get much in the way of cedar. There is a slightly woody dimension here, but I can’t say what it is — I keep going to juniper, maybe some vetiver. I do get a dusty, powdery thing, which to me smells like iris, but perhaps it is a very non-floral lavender. The violet leaf is the clear #1 here, and I think the patchouli is very prominent on drydown as well.
Violet leaf + Yuzu + patchouli + dry, sharp, junipery wood = big fat love for me.
Performance for a light, green, sharp summer fragrance is exemplary.
Quick rant – I think that there are many people who
would do well to switch to unscented soap and stop slathering $0.99 Suave lotion all over themselves prior to bashing the performance of every single solitary fragrance. Ahhhhhh I feel better 🙂
This is and Dior Homme Cologne are my two light summer go-to’s. Love em both.
EDIT – it is not iris that I smell – it is the amalgam of the lavender (which is more prevalent upon application than I initially thought) and violet leaf starting to dry down and the yuzu and the patchouli starting to warm up. This has bested Dior Homme Cologne as my summer day-off favorite.
nikolai52 – :
I tried this from a tester at Macy’s and I wasn’t fond of it. I wanted to blind buy based on the reviews and notes but I tried it first instead amd it had a sort of gingery smell that is in some Perry Ellis colognes I’ve smelled. I don’t like ginger in fragrances because they generally have this smell of someone who I had a negative experience with so I associated it with them. The base was sort of nice, it reminded me of the drydown of Versace Man Eau Fraiche but greener. But by the drydown I had already associated it negatively as well with my headache after trying some fragrances so for me this wasn’t a pleasant fragrance. It isn’t bad though just not for me.
gazikfan – :
Really great smelling citrus scent here. I typically spray 6-8 sprays each time I wear it, this is a lighter scent, so going heavy on the sprayer is no issue.
Scent:9
Longevity:5 I get 3-4 hours on my skin, 1 1/2 on clothes
Sillage:4
Unique/Industry First:5
Quality:7
Just a beautiful light scent here. Well worth the pricetag, feel free to go heavy on the sprayer, everyone loves this scent. If longevity was a bit longer, this would be a 10/10 overall.
yurniks – :
Dagnabit Cartier! Why does this lovely fragrance only last for 30 minutes?
This would be the perfect office scent if it didn’t have such a longevity issue. It’s classy, clean and close to the skin. Unfortunately, it’ll be long gone before you finish your morning commute.
It’s not olfactory fatigue either. I’ve asked others to really try and smell it. After an hour they can’t find it at all.
Still, it’s just so lovely. Maybe order the big bottle and respray?
tyc693Diobtetty – :
As soon as I smelt this one I knew I smelt a similar one before, took some time to figure it out but after going through the perfumes I have, I managed to find the lost twin of this perfume…. it is JPG Monsieur Eau de matin!
They are quite similar, both in smell and longevity, which is very poor. I was expecting a longer longevity and more projection from an EDT compared to EDM, but it seems they are just too similar, except for slightly more citrus in the JPG Monsieur.
In addition, Carteir concentre gives a slight whiff of old man pants in dry down (very short-lived anyway), not sure if it’s the coriander but it’s not very appealing either.
Kolobok13 – :
This is stronger than Eau de Cartier?
If this lasts through lunch time, I’ll be very surprised. Don’t get me wrong, it smells great! But it’s really not very strong… I got free samples of this when I purchased Cartier Declaration d’Un Soir Intense.
The scent, to me, is a more airy Mont Blanc Exceptionnel (yuzu vs mandarin). For that reason, I really like it! But because of the fact that I can only smell it with my nose to my skin, I’ll probably stick with Exceptionnel.
After continuing to test this, I got a maximum of about 3 hours out of it. I really love this scent, but it just doesn’t last. This is literally the shortest lived fragrance I’ve ever used in my life. So sad.
witttman – :
While for some reason it sort of reminds me of a softer, distilled version of Prada Amber pour Homme or Fahrenheit, it first and foremost is what it should be: a concentrated Eau de Cartier.
It is fresh but not exatly citrusy despite the suggestion of Yuzu, it is clean and cotton like, minimal, yet a great performer!
In 2016 it still exudes modernity, without actually being repetitive and boring unlike most modern scents.
Violet leaf, lavender, woods and spices blended into clean, calculating, composed perfection.
One of my favourite scents and I love it in winter and autumn just as I love it in spring.
mirchon – :
For me is really similar to Eau de Cartier 2001. Is not different, and, yes, is concentree. More structured and solid but Eau de Cartier totaly. Power and tonic sugared water. Say no more.
1984pavel – :
Ce parfum est vraiment génial a porter pour été surtout, il est frais, légèrement épicé, aromatisé, citronné aussi, le yuzu est bien présent en masse dés les premières minutes, la lavande, le bois de cèdre et le patchouli viennent accentué ce dernier pour donner un autre éclat au parfum, parfait pour été et temps chaud, tient bien en durée et reste modéré en projection
bxx766Unlogrere – :
Scored a 200ml used tester from Fragrancenet (their “95%” listings) for less than $25. At this price, it is a good choice for a summer spray, to throw in your beach bag or keep in the car.
Many of us are looking for summer fragrances that will last a long time, be light and refreshing, and be cheap enough to apply liberally (and lose accidentally). As they say in the automotive world: Fast, Cheap, Reliable. Pick two.
That being said, Eau De Cartier Concentree is cheap, reliable, and performs well. The overall effect is of a rather safe “green” fragrance; I couldnt even go as far as saying that violet can be identified specifically (at least, not in the way it would be in other, heavily violet-prominent fragrances), but as far as citrus-herbal mashups go, there isn’t much to complain about here, although there isn’t much to write home about either (other than the fact that this will last 8 hours).
However, first place for summer fragrances goes to Bulgari Aqua Amara. Im not sure what they but in that stuff, but its a nuclear-level citrus bomb. Very impressive. If you are looking for a summer citrus, that is the place to go. If, however, you prefer your summers more green instead of yellow, Eau De Cartier Concentree would be a good choice.
volga-2011 – :
Is it just me or is there a similarity to “Fahrenheit” by Dior? Though this is certainly less red and more green or somewhere between green and yellow in regards to a colour impression.

Intoxicating blend of sharp citrus, golden coriander and crushed green grass. A long cherished favorite.

Christine Nagel has, in my opinion, tried to create an ‘eau’ that isn’t mind numbingly same-as. I can mention eau de jade, eau France, rochas, du sud, savage, orlane, ad infinitum, that all claim to be the South of France in a bottle. What have we here? Yuzu, and youzz will love it when you get used to it. Something akin to the Jean Claude Ellena grapefruit opening but more masculine, a little metallic, (Coriander?) then there’s a distinct lemon, or is it quince? Have you ever let a platter of quince fruit, the entire piece of fruit, not cut in any way, sit in a warm room. It’s scent is quite divine. It is rivalled by the Bhudda’s Hand Citrus, a real head turner. There are nuances of unusual fruit in Eau de Cartier concentree and they aren’t girly, paleo princess ones. It achieved its objective, I think, to be truly unisex with a very pleasant dry down. Great for the tropics.
R ridick – :
Not bad! a likable and quality unisex citrus. The notes listed are pretty much accurate, except on my skin the violet leaf is more prominent. Opens nice and green, with the bitterness of the yuzu softened by the lavender. What results is a light green, soft, fresh aroma that comes across “happy” or “carefree”. Longevity is impressive for this kind of scent, I get around 7 hours, but sillage is soft. The scent matches the juice pretty much perfectly, pale green. I dont think it’s a must have or anything but one could do much much worse in the genre.

Today is a warm and humid day in my part of the world. I was looking for something fresh in my perfume collection and found Eau de Cartier concentrée. I bought it on a whim, as it was very well priced, but haven’t used it much since.
I am usually not very fund of citrus based perfumes as they turn sour on my skin. EdCC does not. It has a strong yuzu component, which I like a lot: it is a wonderful cross between the real fruit smells of freshly peeled tangerines and grapefruits. And did I mention it doesn’t turn sour? A little bit of coriander picks through giving it just a touch of sweetness, and some individually indiscernible woods anchor it ever so lightly. While it doesn’t evolve much, it does get a bit rounder as it settles on the skin.
I agree with other postings: it is not an exceptional perfume. However, it is very well crafted with high quality ingredients. Perfect for those days when you crave olfactory freshness to make you forget that you are walking in a sauna.
Sillage: 6 out of 10
Longevity: about 5 hours on my skin
Disclaimer: I noticed a lot of the reviews are made by men. I am a woman and think it is beautifully unisex.
Alishka.zp – :
Does anyone know if this fragrance has been reformulated? I’ve never smelled this fragrance back in early 2000s when it was released but I’ve seen two different style boxes. One all white with the lime green top and it looks like a postal stamp in the middle on the box where it has the name. The other same white box but with a big C at the far right bottom on the box. Can anyone tell me which one is the older carter concentree!

Bol bol “ama” bağlacı içeren bir yorum yazmaya mahkum bırakan bu parfüm için kişisel görüşlerim hoşgeldiniz. 🙂 Beğenildiğine dair pek çok yorum okuduktan sonra satın aldım ama biraz umutlarımı yıktı. Unisex olarak lanse edilmiş ama bence tatlılıktan uzak parfümleri seven genç ve orta yaştaki spor giyinen erkeklere daha uygun. Bayanlar da kullanabilir ama erkek kullanımına daha yakın buldum. Kokunun harmanı mükemmel olmasa da bence kaliteli. Kalıcılık ortalama. Yaz kış kullanılabilecek yapıda ama bahar ve yaz mevsimlerine daha uygun. Yine de en sıcak günlerde bile baygınlaşmayan bir kokusu var. Kokunun neye benzediğini tam çözemedim ama ciddi anlamda acı bir turunç kabuğu havası var. Pek tatlılık barındıran bir koku değil. Sahip olduğum diğer parfümlerin hiç birine fazla benzetemedim. Çevremdeki insanların tepkisi genelde “güzel ama ben olsam bu kadar parayı buna verip kullanmam” şeklinde oldu. Denemeden alınmaması gereken bir koku. Bazıları için mükemmel bir koku iken bazıları için kaliteli ama parasını hak etmeyen bir koku olarak algılanabilir.
Kokunun eşsizliği : 7/10
Koku güzelliği : 6/10
Kalıcılık : 7/10
Güzellik : 6/10
Fiyat-performans : 6/10

This is a good fragrance fresh, vivid, clean, that being said; I might be wrong on this one but, coud I be the only-one who thinks/notice there is a distinctive cucumber-ish note?
ojn995Diobtetty – :
This eau exudes class. From its simple and elegant bottle to the cleverly composed juice, Eau de Cartier Concentree is a masterful orchestration in the designer game for what I would describe as an everyday fragrance.
This is not your typical fresh scent. There is a sharp citrusy burst that quickly reveals more interesting components – a composed yuzu balanced with coriander. The heart has a very green quality; to me there is something that evokes beach days in the far orient. The lavender note is subtle; when it comes in, it isn’t as intense as in Prada Amber pour homme but just there to give a quiet cleanliness to the fragrance. Speaking of amber – the dry down of the amber and patchouli (as per alpestremonte); freshness and sweetness as per sophywt.
This is not a fragrance that will offend those around you; as a wearer however, there is an aromatic/herbal quality that may not be to your liking – I suspect the transition coriander/violet leaf but I could be wrong. I actually enjoy that a lot.
In general, I have some problems of longevity with my skin – not so with this Cartier. I think I got 11 hours. Though the last 4 hours were very much skin level but still noticeable.
I suppose if I wore it daily (which I haven’t been able to as it is winter here), there may be reason for me to start getting bored with it. I’ll update you at the end of summer.
If you are in the market for a fresh scent that differs form the standard citrus/aquatic standards, do yourself a favour and give EdC Concentree. Love it! I can’t wait for this spring and summer.
Now if only somebody would buy me one of those love bracelets – the white gold would be nice.

Eau de Cartier Concentree one of my recent purchases. opens up fresh minty like a menthol vibe to it then middle notes I describe greenish floral then fresh ozonic woody scent at the base the green juice color says it all I really do like this one overall smell is very refreshing and very uplifting unisex indeed one of the best unisex frags that ive encountered lately scent is very natural I don’t find anything synthetic within the scent. I imagine a mentholated cigarette vibe on this one. I also imagine green tea menthol in this scent weird but I describe it as that. overall feel is freshness/greenish nothing mind blowing or will challenge you olfactory senses but nice scent overall.
longevity 6-8 7/10 hours very good for a fresh fragrance decent longevity.
sillage/projection moderate projection just mild not a monster 7/10.
uniqueness 7/10 nothing uniquely mind blowing about the scent but overall good scent.
overall smell 8/10 very good fresh/minty scent
price vs quality base on retail 120usd for 200 ml bottle I think is too much to ask for this one 7/10 I guess the name cartier try online I got mines below 50
versatility summer and spring definitely overall a decent release although nothing exciting its still a good frag overall
cristiano – :
It is such a beautifull fresh smell. I like it most when I smell citrus (in the beginning) and the ocean (also in the beginning). But is is very ‘sharp’, too overwhelming. I get a headache of it. My heart says: yes! But my head says: NO. Such a pity!
Anny891 – :
Its a great scent, I had it but returned it within days because I felt it was untraceable
Лотар – :
Nice, but not very interesting. For me it’s a generic sort of woodsy/spicy/green smell. “Safe for work” and, no, it won’t offend anyone.
It’s better than the Bvlgari and Gucci generically woodsy/spicy fragrances I have tried, I’ll give it that. But I won’t be running out to buy a bottle of it.
Speaking of the bottle, what’s with that clear plastic washer at the top? Odd.
White-Star – :
I agree with one of the comments saying that Eau de Cartier Concentree(the drydown) shares similiar DNA with Burberry the beat. I think it’s the coriander&violet leaf in EdC Concentree and the pepper&violet in the Beat.

Absolutely love it
Jonny-smerch – :
I buy this, wear it love it get bored of it. Then years later I rediscover it. This is 3rd time round!
I was younger then but enjoy it now, it is a fragrance which is not offensive and it is pleasing for day or summer nights. Men seem to like it but it is unisex right!

My go to fragrance during early spring and summer, a very classy and refreshing smell,that gets compliments by all who pass by me,people ask what is that,they can’t believe it’s Cartier makes a product that smell so good,well they do and continue to make great scents,
A must have in your collection.

Interesting reading other reviews before commenting myself…
I received a sample of this fragrance probably a very long time ago – at least over a year ago. I remember getting a ton of little samples, and this one had me intrigued the least.
Well, fast forward some time, and my curiosity gets the best of me (and it’s also spring, a pretty day) so let’s break out Cartier Concentree.
At first blast… a bit much. Heavy on the citrus, and maybe it’s just the initial grapefruit/yuzu itself – just m’eh. Seen it done better. The initial spritz is not so good.
The drydown, however (which you wait about 5-15 minutes for) is AMAAAAAAAAAZING! I mean the most pleasant citrus smell mixed with clean linen. The way you’d imagine a fresh, linen shirt. Absolutely flawless, stunning, and always proper. I must have sniffed my wrist countless times today. This is signature scent worthy. Beach or opera, fancy or impromptu, it doesn’t matter, this will do the job. Absolutely recommended. This long-lasting drydown makes the initial blast worth it. Probably best sprayed in the air out of a shower and walking into it.
clomidnow – :
Cartier EAU DE CARTIER CONCENTREE smells dark green and somewhat woody to me, not really very citrus or aromatic. I rather like this composition, which seems to strike a balance between DECLARATION and ROADSTER. Interesting, given that those two are said to be masculine fragrances, while this one is marketed as unisex.
In some ways, EdC CONCENTREE seems closer to ROADSTER, although it is of course devoid of the minty opening. The drydown of this composition, however, is not tiresome but appealing to me. This would make a nice addition to my collection, I think, as I own nothing quite like it.
EAU DE CARTIER CONCENTREE is definitely worth testing by anyone, guy or gal, it seems to me–provided that they do not despise violet leaf! (-;

I love all Eau de Cartier, but I think this is the best because of its longevity and projection.
No doubt that I would like to have the entire collection Eau de Cartier.
These are perfumes that create in us an aura of happiness, peace and love.

I wish I could like this one. I enjoy the first minutes, but when the heart notes start to come out I simply hate it. It’s disgusting for me, it’s too much and reminds of vomit. Yes, vomit. Sorry Cartier. I can recognize the quality, but the combination does not agree with me.

Very similar to Burberry The Beat. AT Nordstrom it smelled pretty good, but may be because i had smelled few other before smelling this. Now next day just like The Beat, little sweet. Anyway my wife likes it so I have no option.
seola71 – :
Well, the initial smell begins expressing exactly the color of the liquid in the bottle. Green!
A priori we have an explosion of green notes, giving the feeling of young leaves, but nothing vulgar. The smell stays on my skin for about 30 minutes and soon after comes the middle and base notes, and its here that the fragrance captivated me!
Throughout the fragrance, I could felt it changing to a more gourmand scent. It became sweeter and a little bit spicier, but in a very subtle way, where deep down inside we have the woods, which lasts throughout the middle of the fragrance. It is noteworthy also that at this stage is where the fragrance comes to pass that feeling of cleanliness, like we were just out of a bath.
Anyway, a must try for anyone who likes green fragrances with a hint of spicy.

Its fresh allright, and sparkling, I’m always suprised of the energy coming out of this stylish looking bottle.
But, oh yes but :-), its a smell that hardly lasts..
And believe me, I’ve tested it over and over, never sprayed as much with a perfume as I did with this one, but still, it does not last on me as I want it to last.
But, still love this energy bottle…

Great fragrance from Cartier for that sunny and hot days.
Cartier Concentree has a strong violet note, so I think it is more feminine than a masculine scent.
When I had used it, I felt like walking in a forest during a spring day.
Good longevity and sillage.
My final score: 8.0/10.
Yura139 – :
The note which raises an issue here is of Yuzu,a japanese citrus which is a bit bitter in nature,but over a period of time it settles down and emmits a nice fragrance,sweet citrusy & fresh.The longivity is great,overall performance 7.5/10.

Costaleo and I share the same experience with this scent. I too could not stand the unknown prominent note and have had to wash the scent off bcuz it literally made me queasy. I tried a couple of times to give it a go but just could not stand it more than a couple of minutes.
Similar to the other Cartier scents I love Must de Cartier, Must de Cartier II and So Pretty) this scent is also long-lasting (unfortunately in this case)….

Eau Concentree is definitely not for woman: yes, it’s fresh and clean but in a very masculine way. Its overpowering coriander is hard to bear even when you know yet, that the fragrance has elegant, dry but warm final note. Longevity is more than very good, unfortunately ;).

I haven’t tried the original Eau de Cartier yet, but I like this concentree version. It’s fresh and sweet in a nice way, not that tough or sharp as most citrus-aromatic unisex fragrance does. And its longevity is very good.
