Déclaration Haute Fraîcheur

Truly Special. Hidden Gem for a specific Personality. During childhood my parents used to have a lemon balm plant, for the first 2-4 hours (my bottle macerated for more than a year) this smells almost exactly like if u crunched up a leaf of that tree in your hand. borderline photorealistic. Made easy to pull of by Mathilde Laurent via a portion of the Declaration DNA, Cardamom, Citrus and a very nice effervescent Tea note, supplying some "felt" moisture to the figurative crunched-up leaf. i wear it for myself but this is incidentally my most complimented fragrance by women. personally; i have not found a better spring-summer scent in my journey through perfumery yet. Drawback: -turns into classy but rather regular french polite bright woodsy scent at the drydown. - not strong enough to perform through a sport session or a nightout in a packed club all other occasions performance is nicely judged imo. well worth the price at discounters!!

Cartier Déclaration Haute Fraîcheur is an invigorating fragrance that beautifully captures the essence of freshness and greenery. The scent opens with a burst of zesty citrus and crisp green notes, creating an immediate sense of vitality and refreshment. As it develops, the fragrance maintains its green character, offering a harmonious blend of natural and clean aromas. While the longevity of Déclaration Haute Fraîcheur is moderate, ensuring that the fresh scent lingers for a reasonable amount of time, it falls short in terms of projection. This means that while it stays close to the skin and may require reapplication for those seeking a more pronounced scent, it remains an excellent choice for those who prefer a subtle and personal fragrance experience. Overall, Déclaration Haute Fraîcheur is a sophisticated and refreshing option, ideal for everyday wear in warmer weather.

Beautiful opening reminiscent of Bvlgari Eau The Vert which I love dearly. If Bvlgari Eau The Vert is the scent of sitting on a beaten Eames lounge chair in a modernist waiting room flipping through a design magazine you didn’t buy, Declaration Haute Fraicheur is the same waiting room, just with a Cartier logo quietly embossed somewhere on the wall. One smells like green tea steeped in good manners; the other smells like spice that’s been sent to finishing school and told to lower its voice. As many others have already pointed out, the longevity is more of a suggestion than a feature. It opens confidently, flirts for about fifteen minutes, and then ghosts you completely, leaving behind nothing but a vague memory and the uncomfortable urge to reapply out of spite.

Three notes, eh? Three words then: Green Tea Cardamom I love it- so gentle and zen. It has shades of Dunhill Century (bracing greenness) and Shanghai Tang Jade Dragon (spicy tea). If you enjoy those kind of scents, you will love this. If you like sweet, shower gel bleu fragrances, you may not find it suitable. As for me, this is classy and perfect for men who want something different for warm weather. It’s very understated, as it is constructed to be. I don’t think it would work well as a powerful fragrance. It’s meant for situations when a quiet scent bubble is appropriate. Adjust expectations accordingly!

I honestly love this fragrance. I wore it last week and layered the OG Cartier Declaration underneath it. I felt great all day and caught wafts of this more than 8 hours later. In my over 200 bottle collection has become one of my favorites, especially as spring arrives. Picked this up at Charles de Gaulle airport duty free. I enjoy uplifting fragrances that last a long time and smell somewhat unique this checks all of the boxes. One more thing, I have always loved DG Light Blue pour femme...and sought a more masculine version of it to wear myself...this fragrance does that for me as well....

Borderline a masterpiece. Even though a few fragrances have done the green tea theme before (Bvlgari Au The Vert, EA Green Tea, Wulong Cha, to some extent Guerlain Nerolia Vetiver, Mugler Cologne), NONE have paired it with a gorgeous, realistic cardamom. It transforms the scent to something magnificent. This isn’t the fake cardamom you find in La Nuit de L'Homme. It’s the realistic one in Hermes Voyage. And the longevity ratings are blown waaay out of proportion. This performs like an EDT, kind of like an Aqua Allegoria Forte. It is not freaking 4711 like the ratings make it seem...

Context: I work at a Cartier store and have access to this. If you love Declaration EDT and want a fresher, more citrus heavy version, this is a great choice. I love the original but I find it to be quite musky and extremely spicy. This new version tones that down and really emphasizes a bright and fresh zesty orange. I would highly recommend this for spring if you like to give a clean, sophisticated, and want to preserve the 'dressed up but dirty' vibe the original EDT gave off. Would highly recommend giving it a smell and it's a fantastic release going into 2022.

Wow, that's a 10/10 for me! There is a green-like, citrusy, and spicy opening, one of the best I know in designer perfumery. Soon a bitter cardamom becomes the main star. I like this bitterness cause it makes it more masculine — otherwise it would be unisex. For this scent profile, it has great longevity (~6hs) and projection (~1.5h) on my skin. It could be a signature scent, but I see it more as a fancy post-shower fragrance. I immediately bought a full bottle after trying this in a split.

اعجبني جدا اعجبني اكثر من العادي الذي وجدته حاد وحار وصاخب وغير منعش هذا على العكس تماما هادئ ونصف شفاف ونقي وحمضي، خصوصا نوتة اوراق الليمون واضحة جدا السهل الممتنع ممتاز ومميز ٩/١٠ - I liked it a lot. I liked it more than the original, which I found harsh, spicy, loud, and not refreshing. This one is the complete opposite: calm, semi-transparent, clean, and citrusy, especially with the lemon leaf note being very noticeable. Effortlessly elegant. Excellent and distinctive. 9/10

Great fragrance! Fresh, clean and green scent with its lime and green leaves notes. Cedarwood and the hint of Cardamom give a depth and a little touch of sweetness to this juice!! Although it is completely different but the vibe this fragrance offers reminds me of Infusion d’Iris from Prada: A feel good freshness and brightness! Surely, this will become a hit especially in the spring and summer times! Perfectly unisex! Insta: perfumemontreal1

This Cartier haute fraîcheur I’m liked it a lot First projection the declaration dna but after , à awesome freshness Very clear Green Fresh and herbal I think is the best summer declaration on the line Cartier have to think about reviewing the longevity Maybe carier haute fraîcheur EDP coming soon

Very very green. Great for spring. It's smells exactly the same as 78 Vintage Green of Banana Republic. Which I love. I sprayed them side by side. Opening is slightly different, but after 10 minutes you can't tell them apart. Great green scent. Get 78 VG if you can. That one is cheaper.

To me, it smells like a fresh cut green tea leaves infusion like the Replica Matcha, + the heart of the Declaration. It is very nice, clean and easy to wear. Perfect for spring :) The only little problem is that it doesn’t last very long... it is all gone after 1 hour (on skin)...

Really love this, very refreshing and beautiful scent. The fresh, spicy and green aspects mix very well and the Declaration DNA is clearly there, but more casual and modern. It's kind of light, but I like that. First Cartier I will end up with an empty 100 mL bottle for sure!

A more simpler and greener take on the original Cartier Declaration. Linear scent (not in a bad way) : fresh, green tea with a spicy woody undertone, wonderful for the warmer weather. Very Similar to Banana Republic 78 - Vintage Green.

Beautiful green tea freshie. On my skin, Declaration Haute Fraicheur is almost identical to Hermes Voyage which is one of my favorite perfumes. Very easy to wear. Lasts a long time in temperatures above 60F.

I am fond of tea-centered fragrances and this one is done pretty well. Ordered a small vial and finished it in just 3 wears. Four days later, my bottle arrived in the mail. Well done, Mathilde.

Fresh. Crisp. Simple. Humble. Some might see this as a write off but if you bought it at a discount it is a great crowdpleaser. Even it is not the most complex fragrence, it is still enjoyable.

Smells like a spicer more manly version of Aqua Media by MFK. A Beautiful classy fragrance that can be worn casually and on more serious occasions as well as every season but winter IMO.

Really interesting fragrance. Very aromatic, woody & spicy. Definitely unique and unisex, would recommend to anyone looking for a unusual scent... reminds me of the forest in a way.
