Eau de Cartier Goutte de Rose

Gorgeous...Gorgeous...Gorgeous!!! A beautiful soft lovely rose that will have you walking around in the loveliest of fragrance clouds. When I first spray this I smell sweet fruit. Not rotting fruit but something edible and delectable. RosaMilena stated yuzu in her review and that resembles the fruitiness I picked up. This fragrance is pure joy. The sweetness is not over the top. Cartier got this one just right. The rose is soft but do not be deceived it is there and the rose stayed with me well into the dry down. Towards the end it took on a bit of soapiness but I did not mind one bit. This is one of those perfumes where I kept catching the most gorgeous perfume in the air from time to time (even several hours later) and each time I would smile to myself and say mmmmmm. That's me. Seven hours later this perfume was still going strong. Amazing longevity!!! The only note listed anywhere is rose but for a seemingly simple EDT this girl is complex and there's definitely more to her than meets the eye. There is so much more here than pretty roses. You want a perfume with longevity this one is it. Some have stated little to no silage but I thought it was just perfect. This is one of those scents that from the first time on my skin it resonated with me so greatly that even if this was a skin scent I would still want the 200 ml bottle. Polite??? Yes she is but for those of us who detest patch this little beauty is a gem. Summer days, sunshine and perfect manners in a bottle. It is fall right now and winter is on its way along with a lot of snow so I will be spraying this to remind me that beautiful blue skies and sunny days will eventually come back around. TIP- When I first smelled this it was on a test strip and on the paper test strip all I pretty much smelled was faint rose and musk. This is a fragrance that needs to be sprayed directly on your skin to appreciate the depth of its character.

I've been searching hard and long for the perfect rose fume, sadly, to little avail. I'm finding that I'm not a huge fan of Cartier for the most part, while I have liked a couple of there scents, most fail to mesh well with my rather volatile chemistry. That being said, I decided to go ahead and give Goutte de Rose a try, in part from curiosity and finding a very decently price .5oz bottle. I can honestly admit that had I not taken the chance on this, it would have been a big mistake. I absolutely adore this juice and will be purchasing a large bottle as soon as funds allow. I love roses in general, but have found it very difficult to find a true to life rose fragrance that lasts, isn't too sweet, soapy, powdery, musky or, for lack of a better word, old. Cartier really hit the mark with this lovely juice. It really does smell like rose water but with much much better longevity and projection. I'm usually rather shy to recommend a perfume, but do so here whole heartedly and without reservation. My hat's off to Cartier for finally producing what I've longed for for many years now. I'm in love...

I don't know where I've been that I only recently found this gem. Cartier Goutte de Rose, despite of being edt - has a considerably long lasting power, satisfying sillage, and yummy scent! Rose is very dominant in this fragrance. I have zero complain as I love rose. However, I would disagree that the rose is linear, because it's not. It starts with wet, watery rose bouquet scent that develops into a rounded, fluffy, enveloping, warm rose-vanilla. Slightly reminds me of Stella, but Goutte de Rose is not as prominent or full bodied. Compared to Stella, Goutte de Rose is like its shy yet friendly younger sister. Softer, still got character, but have something that is "not yet there". It's probably the innocence part of this fragrance. I find Goutte de Rose very easy to wear and very easy to like. It is safe, inoffensive, and seems to bloom into its best in warmer weather. This fragrance could be a quick feminine fix to almost anyone. Now excuse me, I need to stare lovingly to my new 200ml Cartier Goutte de Rose bottle and sniff my wrist again.

At first this reminds me of Kenzo Coleur Rose- Pink a little bit, and the first 5 minutes after spraying this on me is kinda disappointing. It's nice, but nothing special. But after that, this floral scent changed into this rosy smell that is really yummy and addicting. I keep smelling my wrists afterwards. The longer it is on my skin, the more it develops into a complex floral scent. This would work well as an everyday perfume. I have been wearing this for 5 days straight. Usually I change my perfume everyday, but these past few days I have only reached for this bottle. This perfume lasts over 6 hours on me, so it's really really great for an EDT. And I adore the bottle, I don't have to worry about losing the cap. I think it's suitable for all ages, because it's not too floral or too sweet. This is my first Cartier perfume, and I think I love this house already!

Goutte de Rose is the third fragrance I buy after just trying it. It was instant love. I should say that I do not buy on impulse and the only two times I bought a fragrance the same day I tried them was when I bought Infusion de Iris and Miracle. And I still love them. You know, when you see the word "eau" and "rose" in the same sentence, you think: rose water. But thankfully this is just not the case. There is more rose water smell in Stella M. This a case of a subtle sophisticated, feminine and complex composition. I usually do not describe the notes in the fragrances but in this case I want to say that I love the spices in it. This is a Cartier after all. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you...my new favorite :)

The most perfect rose in my opinion. As the name implies, it's a beautiful dew droplet - a floral kiss of rose essence on your skin. Never overwhelming, alluring without the need to be provocative, and classically charming. It's a true rose scent that is on the sweeter side but not jammy or candy-like. The vanilla and amber balances the scent and provides a subtle creaminess. I enjoy that these notes don't overpower but effectively does its job in preventing the rose from ever smelling too sharp. Because it is devoid of fruit notes, it never turns sour like some of the other perfumes in the same realm of rose. I encourage you to experience this one if you can.

A perfect every day frangrance. This one along with Chane Chance eau fraiche have succesfully replaced my beloved discontinued Moschino L'eau de cheap and chic. I do not like rose frangrances but this one is subtle, refined, sweet but fresh at the same time, it smells like clean skin perfumed with something expensive and refined... Petal indeed. I am soo happy for finding this one and Chanel eau fraiche...so happy. Edit: I have generously sprized this beuayt yesterday night. It is not the classic powdery , "oldish" rose, it is a very fine fresh with a touch of airy sweetnes frangrance, very "lady-like". Beautiful.

A very light rose scent that lasts for hours, making for an impressive first wearing. People note that this smells like other rose based perfumes, and I agree (duh... it’s rose— one of the most ubiquitous scents in the perfume world). But I will also note that if you are a fan of Cartier like I am, you will pick up that underlying yummy vanilla base that they use in all of their perfumes. Smooth but still full bodied, it’s different than Chloé and Stella McCartney. This is an easy to wear, light but persistent rose veil. For an EDT it’s performance is very good, I’m lookIng for a grey market deal.

This was the first mainstream designer rose I really liked. It smells just the tiniest bit sweet, but not overly so. I believe that is the violet just giving it a little added oomph. It's a soft lovely rose, just enough of every element and not too much wood. I am in love with this one. Finally a rose scent that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. This will be my go to rose fragrance for the summer. It's so light and not cloying at all, very refreshing. This is what Caron's Delirrhe de Rose should have been but is not.

Wore this to a spring bonfire/casual cocktail party a couple of days ago and received many compliments. I would compare this to the rose/berry combo of Guerlain's Flora Rosa, except far more subtle--also similar to Stella EDT and Roses De Chloe. Very clean sweetness, but still something I felt added a touch of glamour to an evening out. I would echo what some others have said: probably won't buy a full bottle, but it was nice to sample. I find Cartier Basier Vole and Lys Rose more exciting.

I have it and I love it! It's an elegant simple and classy rose and pretty nothing much else but it stands out of the crowd of latest launches this year. I feel romantic, clean and feminine in it. I bought it as a summer break from my complex orientals and was happy, but even if longlasting it doesn't project at all. I wish it was more radiant, instead it has a very subtle attitude and just a little nostalgic, too. anyway I love this little rose gem.

Soooo gorgeous. I get the tester edt for only $33 Even though the batch code tells it was produced in 2013 but my Cartier GdR remain fresh and come in a very good condition. My Gaawwdd, this creamy amber rose is so pretty. Think about the young Queen Elizabeth in her early 20's. Peachy pink with a touch of woodsy notes 😍 Many people said it's discontinued already, yeap no wonder I got the old batch from 10 years ago. I'm so lucky 🤍

I have had this perfume for a few months now and I like it a lot. It is rosy but I wish it was even rosier, I also smell some woodiness in it in the beginning. Perfect for office since it's not offensive. To be fair I can hardly smell it on me after an hour or two. Although I like this perfume a lot, I do not think I'd repurchase it, there are better rose perfumes out there.

Rose addict here. This rose is not syrupy or sweet, a mineral underpinning. I don't feel vanilla, rather a salty finish compare to Les Merveilles ambergris. Could have been an old bay rum with a huge cabbage rose straight from Queen Mary's Rose Garden in Regent's Park. A man can easily wear as if the salt were leather. Fresh and cooling, maybe even mysterious.

Yummi, rose and wood/amber mix. I can't smell any vanilla in this. Wonderful. fresh, clean. A bit sweet rosenotes and I just looove it! Very nice spring-scent. Mums, ros och trä/amber mix. Jag kan inte känna någon vanilj alls i denna. Underbar. Fräsch, ren. Lite söta rosnoter och jag bara älskar den! Suverän vår-doft.

Remember, just because a perfume is gone, doesn't mean it was any good. The $250-$350 prices on eBay are laughable. I had this when the big bottle sold for under $50. It smelled like Yardley rose soap, and projected like a body spray. I found it ok, but very generic and plain.

This perfume is just such a lovely scent, it is hard not to like it. I just love it so much, its really just so beautiful it smells fresh like a fresh clean pink rose i don't want to ever run out this is definitely one of those you want to always keep a big bottle of.

This is a very nice rose scent. I usually don't like rose perfumes as they tend to be very strong and I sometimes get allergic reactions to that. However, it's not the case with this one. It's very similar to Stella by Stella McCartney which I really like.

This is a delicate, young rose in its first bloom with a distinct red berry note hiding among its petals. It's subtle but exquisitely lovely. As it dries down a softly, woody vanilla emerges. Sillage is arm's length. Longevity is about 4-5 hours.

This perfume is so soft, gentle and airy. It smells of delicate crushed rose petals and spices. I really like this perfume, its classy, sophisticated and seems to last well for such a gentle fragrance.
