Description
Eau de Cartier Vetiver Bleu is the latest fragrance of the collection inspired by elegant vetiver. The perfumers of the fragrance wanted to find the perfect balance of serious and gentle emotions while choosing subtle aromas and deep, warm accords of the root, highlighting crystal freshness.
Its composition unites the beauty of shades of vetiver and icy cold aromas of mint while playing with cold herbal essences and warm, deep woody notes. The vetiver aromas include its smoky face so the composition receives a more masculine and tranquil sound. Besides mint and vetiver, the composition incorporates also accords of liquorice. Fragrance EAU DE CARTIER VETIVER BLEU is available as 50, 100 and 200 ml Eau de Toilette.
Eau de Cartier Vetiver Bleu was launched in 2015.

Cartier Vetiver Bleu is one of those perfumes I’ve never thought I will buy, and… here we are! When I first tried it, it was winter and I was totally into my gourmand scents. But now that it’s summer, I wanted to have a bit woody-fresh one, not a typical girly perfume. So I used my tester a couple of times and I found out that I like it a lot.
Interesting about it, that it doesn’t last too long on the skin, but it stays on the hair and clothes. It’s not screaming, but you can still feel it, and that is exactly what I wanted. I only write a comment here, because reading these comments it seems that Cartier Vetiver Bleu is not worthy, but it is:)

Sweet spearmint with a tiny amount of smoke. Smokier later. Weak and inoffensive. It’s very medium.

The minty note in here isn’t as obvious as, let’s say, Kryptomint. I only get this fresh and rather light combination of dry vetiver and damp cedary note. Perhaps, I wish the mint note were more prominent and sweeter on my skin. Vetiver Bleu is very inoffensive and can be easily shared with your loved ones. I also would love to have this as hotel toiletries.

This one changes a lot. Starts off with a fresh vetiver, evolves in 5 min to a minty vetiver and after 20 minutes almost feels like a resinous scent. Like M7 Oud Absolu. The drydown is very similar to Bleu de Chanel. The vetiver becomes smoky. It’s nice but doesn’t have good longevity.

Simple and fresh. Kind of reminds me of the stuff my barber uses after my cut. the drydown is the best part.This is one of those frags that smells way better in the air than if you smell directly.You will think its worn off then hours later you wil still get whiffs.

I wanted to like this fragrance…but it smells like a classy dentist’s office. Or the toothpaste aisle at a Whole Foods store.
What do I mean by this? The licorice and mint scents remind me of mouthwash…and the vetiver gives an earthy smell to the typical mint smell of toothpaste.
Do these scents blend well together? Absolutely! They compliment each other well. Do I want to smell like a hunky dentist from a harlequin romance novel? No.
I could see myself using this as a room freshener though.

Nothing special. No sillage and scent dissipates quickly.
glazoff – :
Very weird scent. It’s like you are standing in a classic but gorgeous library, but I like it somehow.
Meiaq054intitytek – :
This just ok. It’s more of a gentlemans scent than for ladies. It’s very cold and fresh, that must be the mint. I can certainly detect the vetiver, but not for long and I can’t detect any liquorice at all. The scent wears off very quickly. All in all, ok but quite dissapointing.
If you’re looking for a vetiver scent I highly reccomened Tom Ford Grey Vetiver – it’s gorgeous!
klikminusa – :
This is MUCH better than the original Eau de Cartier or even Concentree! Very similar, but the vetiver here is a perfect addition to this scent! Unfortunately, it doesn’t last much longer than Eau de Cartier, but the vetiver certainly helps! If you’re considering buying one of the Eau de Cartier scents, this is the one to get! Just don’t expect outstanding performance, you won’t find that in ANY of the Eau De Cartier scents.

cartier’s vetiver bleu smells almost exactly like guerlain’s vetiver, but this is fresher. i love the mint opening !! will be great to wear on a summer evening.
artem32r – :
Awesome for a refreshing night after the shower before going to bed. I will add more later.
morEmuppy – :
Not the vetiver I was looking for after trying geurlain’s. Feels more like an after bath splash. One dimensional. Not a fragrance to take too seriously. Faded quickly. Cool on/off switch, so no caps to lose! Smart, very smart!
yurabrmvrambler – :
This is so far my favorite among the Eau de Cartier line. Heres why: stays fresh all day and does not develop into something flat or unperceivable even after 6 hours; its refreshingly crisp, bright, minty, and without being fruity/citrusy with a proper amout of fresh, not balmy, vetiver; it has the longest longevity among its line; the projection is approproate, not intrusive nor quiet; and it blends well with my skin chemistry like with out-of-the-shower aura even after 6 hours. Its the masterpiece in its line!

Cool mint and dry vetiver wonderfully combined to make your hot summer days. If you’re interested in Guerlain vetiver and think it is a little bit dated and too complicated, you may enjoy this modern vetiver-base scent. An outstanding work from Cartier although “concentree” is still my absoult favorite flanker from the line.
Rezar 123 – :
Vetiver and mint (traditional, fresh mint, not like the herbal mint featured in Cartier Roadster) add to the tradicional dna base, with citrus and powdery violet, of Eau de Cartier, a slight (but notable) sweet touch liquor. It smells great for a scent that lasts no more than three hours on the skin, a shame!
6/10
uyw564Unlogrere – :
Very manly scent and very nice. I cannot smell any licorice and it’s really good because I’m usually not a fan of this note. This scent is truly about vetiver, combined with fresh mint. All in all, it’s worthy male fragrance.
GroupleAllove – :
I’m suspect because i love vetiver, for me a good flanker of Eau de Cartier.
We feel the clear DNA with a more polished vetiver, mineral and somehow means root, with no fruity chords, slightly minty too, but I feel something creamy, sweet and bitter, anise or licorice perhaps, but has something sparkling reconciled.
Versatile in the extreme, in the line of Encre Sport, worth checking out.
Rating: 8-8,5/10

Just received received this one and I love it the more and more I wear it. It sure is Eau de Cartier but with a sweet Iris note even though that isn’t listed here.
Apemabafefs – :
Intitially when I tried a sample of this, I thought it was nice but not particularly unique or interesting. But the more I wear it, the more I love it, & I may even buy it in the future.
It’s really pleasant, voluptuous but fresh, herbal and a little harsh initially, but feminine – or possibly unisex.
Finlux – :
Opens quite heavily and herbal, lots of dark green notes and woody notes. It reminds me of how broken twigs in the forest smell. I smell pine needles also, perhaps this is the mix of vetiver and mint? Then the scent turns softer and sweeter. I only smell a hint of liquorice, and the scent tones down quickly. There definitely is something salty in there on that vetiver base, but it is very subtle. I get a whiff of liquorice from time to time. The freshness of the woods stays into the drydown.
Performance is not so good on me, sillage is soft and longevity is weak.
I liked the opening, but this scent seems to disappear quite quickly. It really is a skin scent on me. A pleasant one, herbal but a woman can wear this too. Shame about the performance, it really doesn’t work on me. I do like this scent, it’s spicy somehow, I don’t tend to like vetiver but this one is nice. If only it lasted!
rqn130JeomiWogkig – :
The mint mixed well with the vetiver, but shame on your cartier for making something so average and weak.
projection, longevity and such is 5/10, smell is 6/10. Maybe Dior and Lalique have biased my vetiver sense, not sure.
freedownuio – :
Love, love, love! First spray is harsh, but give it a while to settle down. Very heavy on the vetiver and mint on first spray. The licorice, I do not detect it at all. After about an hour, that’s when the magic happens for me. It smells so soft, clean, and refreshing, kinda like a just out of the shower smell. Not soapy. Just, clean. Great scent for hot summers!
realist78 – :
I had high hopes, but for me the licorice is much too much, overwhelming all of the mint and most of the vetiver from start to finish. Makes it too sweet for my taste; would advise against a blind buy.
wondeful20 – :
Oh my goodness!! This is the best of the Eau de Cartier line. I love vetiver, I love licorice and I love mint. The mixture in this eau is devine!! I keep spraying it on, I just can’t get enough of it.
uyra_89 – :
Vetiver Bleu is a very nice fragrance in its own right, even more so given it’s the seventh (!) flanker of Eau de Cartier. In this case, it makes for a welcome addition.
A surprisingly rooty and dry vetiver (for an ‘eau’) is given a menthol jab (more a gentle prod) and laced with salty-sweet licorice (leaning towards the latter). There’s also a touch of bitterness to the vetiver that reminded me somewhat of ginseng.
A simple but synergisitc blend that would be a worthwhile alternative to a citrus-based summer cologne or aquatic.
Lasts about 5 hours.
Good stuff.

Don’ miss this one! A vetiver at his best (Mathilde Laurent knows how to do!) for a reasonable price.
natali43640 – :
It starts with a very classic and dry vetiver, like Carven or Givenchy, and it very surprisingly evolves after 5 mn into a much sweeter and spicy scent that has the typical scent of all the Cartier colognes with also a great base that could smells like a very soft and fresh Habit Rouge. Actually, it smells real close to Atelier Cologne Mistral Patchouli if this can help you having the idea.
This Blue Vetiver is actually a fine scent, with a correct duration on the body, and it is therefore the nice surprise of this spring for me. Elegant and mature but fresh and springlike too.

So there is this hippie grocery store near me. When I go in there, the store always smells of herbs and health foods. This Cartier reminds me a lot of the smell of hippie health food stores. To be honest, it is really not a bad smell. It is fresh and clean and the vetiver note is strong. I have hated all the Cartier colognes I have tried. This one is, so far, the only Cartier scent I have liked.
