Description
La Panthère Édition Soir arrives in September 2016 as the new version of the fragrance that represents a vision of luxury, starry night and the golden light in contrast to the black sky. The fragrance is announced as a dose of femininity and glamour of a wild and independent woman.
The strong character of La Panthère Édition Soir perfume exudes elegance and refinement that has a dose of both classics and modernity. The animalistic floral-chypre composition is again signed by Mathilde Laurent, who uses a carnal floral bouquet in the heart of the perfume and puts it in contrast with the intensified animalistic notes of the base.
“All women have a feline side in them, as each flower expresses an animal side in its heart,” Mathilde Laurent.
The bottle of the new edition retains the shape and style of the original; a thick, square in glass and the face of a panther, this time in darker shades, more distinct lines and with an elegant black cap. It is available as a 50 and 75 ml Eau de Parfum.

Opens like the original edp, but misses the sophistication in my opinion. I somehow smell some sweet nutiness.

Most wanted..high quality parfum

Today I compared this version with the Original edp, and I could clearly tell them apart. The Original is sophisticated and chic, but the edition soir is much more flowery and, I am sad to say, too sweet. Not for me, this flanker.
CruroZotrearf – :
As much as I love the original EDP and this one, I am kind of disconcerted by the fact the the two smell really similar to each other. A little too similar to justify a flanker.
There is nothing particularly extra ‘soir’ about this, since the original EDP is such a masterpiece that it will register like a opulent and insidious night perfume any way you slice it. This one is the same. I cannot even detect a strong amplified floral newness here. It is primarily that expensive gardenia that somehow smells animalic, as it was before. And oakmoss is just as potent, not any more or less.
I wish this had something else in it to offer a unique flanker experience. Vanilla, suede, some type of wood or spice like cumin? I don’t know… something more.
Hate to say it, but this will be quite the redundant purchase if you already have the original EDP in your collection.
Still gorgeous though.
EDIT: Soir smells a bit more lipstick-y than the original EDP. A touch more synthetic in a makeup smell sort of way. Still, very much the same perfume imo.

I would insert “Lily of the valley” in that general “Flowery notes” category. If Lily’s your thing, good for you…if not (that’s, oddly enough, my case) then you are doomed because this is definitely generous with its lillies…

Oakmoss and white flowers coming for a first plan. It has a a vintage scent in it. Reminds my a lady from 80’s in her Mazda with plastic jewerly accessories, leather jacket and strong 80/90’s make up.

I smell oud and musk with a floral touch.
Unfortunately on my skin this became quite sour and i had to quickly scrub it off.
On paper its still quite nice though.

I love Cartier la panther and adore la panther legere,legere is among my top favorites so I had to try edition soir.I thought I won’t need to buy it because I believed how can they make an already great fragrance better?
Well they can.just one spray on back of my hand was enough to decide I NEED it.I love moss,musk and gardenia and their combination is heavenly here.it doesn’t have fruity notes of original or soapy aldehydes of legere and I agree that it reminds narciso edp of Rodriguez Narciso but gardenia and musk(which are very similar in this two)don’t appear in a milky,creamy base such as narciso.they appear in a powdery,earthy,mossy base which I find even more charming.it can also be a cousin of Bottega veneta eau legere
I was scared of animalic notes here but there’s nothing stinky or dirty in it.they have a balancing role here;I believe it could be a soulless,sterile clean scent if there weren’t animalic notes to give it a lively,sexy quality.don’t let it’s minimalistic notes fool you to expect a plain scent.it has multiple layers waiting to be unfolded on your skin.I can’t assume it a safe blind buy unless you love a tad soapy musky white florals enveloped by warm mossy,leathery notes(yes,I pickup a touch of leather here.in the softest,most feminine way)
Stays the whole day on my skin and radiates strongly for a long time without being heavy
All in all I loved it.I was thinking of buying a backup bottle of la panthere legere,but instead I think I’d better buy edition soir first
It Smells expensive.is full of confidence and sophistication.it’s a modern classic just like other members of la panthere family
It may need some time to grow on you.my nose was half anosmic to it’s sisters in first couple of trys,I was totally dissapointed to see they last less than an hour with no sillage but suddenly they became clear and powerful to my nose
❤❤❤❤❤

Now, I’ve tried and test three of the current variations from this line – La Panthere edp, La Panthere Legere edp and La Panthere Edition Soir. And the last one was the one that I took back home with me. La Panthere Edition Soir was the winner for me. It is bit more creamy, sweet and slightly powdery. The Gardenia is very noticeable. The original edp was more bitter, herbal and green,but also beautiful. Love them all.

This looks and starts in a similar manner to La Panthere edp classical one, but it’s way too musky to digest it. It’s sharp and intoxicating, smells like some kind of condiment, can’t put my finger on it. I love the original one, but i’ll definitely pass this flanker.
Ssweexadeds – :
is it similar to La Panthere edp (original verson)?
Fedos – :
I bought this version blind off eBay for a great price. I love the original it’s very beautiful and powerful. Soir edition just disappears on my skin even if I press my nose to my wrist after 30 minutes poof it’s gone!. I wouldn’t recommend this version unless you want to sample it first as I don’t think it’s worth the high price. If I hadn’t of got it at a good price I would of passed. I will use up my bottle fast as I’ve stated it doesn’t last and I keep spraying throughout the day.

Well..to be honest…I bought this in a eBay auction, thinking I was bidding on the regular Panthere, not this Soir version….OOPS !!! But, I only noticed AFTER I had won the auction. I had sniffed and love the regular Panthere (newer version,not the vintage). I really do like the Soir version so far. It is a “sparkling” gardenia-ish scent. Maybe a “modern” chypre feel …??
I somehow get a little tuberose feel as well. It is not an over-powering scent. The sillage/longevity is in the medium range to my nose.There is just that something about this scent that makes it really work for me.
However….I may still have to buy the first version too,seeing as they are different enough to own both..IMO. My next Cartier will probably be Baiser Vole EDP….then i would like to test out the new one called Baiser Fou.
All in all….I give a happy, sparkling 8 out of 10 to this scent….BTW…I love the bottle, and great sprayer too !!!

QUITE MUSKY
_______________________________________________________
Today i tried ‘LA PANTHERE EDITION SOIR’ and it just blew me away.
In the beginning i couldn’t quite understand what I sensed, but after the alcohol disappeared, some hints of oakmoos and gardenia become palpable but soon after make room for the musk. The musk becomes seductively predominant and stays there until the end.
It reminded me to 100% of Narciso by Narciso Rodriguez (the milky-white bottle). It is very luxurious and I fell for it – in my opinion however it is not feminine at all (rather unisex).
Longetivity: – 9/10
Sillage: – 9/10
All in all: 10 out of 10 subjective points (because I love Narciso)
sergoins – :
This is quite different somehow! It has that gluey sticky sweet essence. Somthing sweetish with hint of baby powder and does of glue, pink floral, and dark factor that makes it soir eligible.
I’ve always thought and still thinking cartier does quite an impressive fragrances as a designer brand, they use fairly quality ingredients and their blends ideas are quite on the niche side with their unusual creativity.

I love this and I want this.
Much powdery a little dark and fruity but in the old-fashioned way.
Very long-lasting with good sillage.
Feminine and luxurious and so different like other mainstream perfumery hits.
The bottle wonderful.
Good job Mathilde.

Great scent. To my nose it’s deliciously powdery and luscious. Love it.
