Pasha de Cartier Edition Noire Sport

I really like this house, they have some great masculine fragrances, there's always a great unique touch and elegance to it. I'm not overly crazy about the Pasha edition noir, but this one hit the spot, a more youthful vibe but not for the younger crowd, I would say 25+ up. For the people who think this is overly classic fragrance, the bottle although beautiful indeed make us think that, but it's not the case here. It starts with a very fresh and juice citrus, but a very unique citrus, I believe I haven't smelled a citrus like this one, is not lemon, nor bergamot, nor orange, it's like a mix of citrus fruits which give a vibe of a very fresh citrus melon type (it's not exactly sweet nor sour, perfectly balanced). The top last quite a bit, that wonderful citrus note, maybe 2 hours at least, then it starts to develop into an even more manly scent (here's when the resembles of the Pasha noir starts to take place) a bit of a sour but creamy sandalwood and cedar, I believe the amber gives it more deep to it but's not very noticeable. In all this it has some water nuances, not overly aquatic (I don't really like aquatics very much) that gives it a more fresh and summer vibe. A really wonderful composition, and that bottle? A Masterpiece! The performance is what expected, but much better then most fresh fragrances out there, I get about 4 to 6 hours, although I have got passed the 6 hour mark, probably depending on the heat (right now, it's very hot summer days so the longevity it's a bit less) To me it an overall 8 out of 10 The only negative thing I have to say is, why not sell a 50ml bottle also? I would much rather buy a 50ml then a 100ml of this juice.

I absolutely love this fragrance. It usually takes me a good while to put a dent in a cologne but this one is definitely getting its use. I could not disagree more with the review below . It's a solid evening sport fragrance. The base notes are just enough to carry water and sea notes through the entire life of the fragrance . You smell the mid and top notes just as much as the base so it keeps that fresh scent through out with the zip or the citrus. At first you get a cloud of the citrus . It's like a bowl of different types or fresh and dry oranges. The water is light before the sea notes really blend with the citrus and create that sport scent. It meets the noir phase when the woods come in. But what I really love is that the base notes are very subtle. You know they are there but the top and mid notes are what stay singing for the longevity of the fragrance . The citrus does change to more of a dark semi dry citrus. To me this is more of an evening fragrance that can be worn year round. But honestly it can be worn almost any time . Sillage , with a normal amount of sprays 4-5 you're getting about 3 to 4 ft . It does go down after about an hour. Longevity on the skin it's about 5 to 6 hours . On clothing I've been able to smell it the following morning. Overall this is exactly what it says it is, a solid evening sport fragrance. It's modern its fresh it has warmness . It's a nice add to the collection Scent- 9.0 Complexity -7.5 Quality - 7.5 Performance -8.0 Bottle - 8.0

Pasha sport could be one of the best designer aquatic/citrus on the market. It is truly elegant and a refreshing scent. It opens very fruity/citrus and with a sea note that is so cooling for the summer months. i have been wearing this for the last two weeks. The scent has good projection and very good lasting power. It still has pasha noir in the background but with added freshness. This can work as a classy aquatic scent for going out during spring/summer days and night. Also this scent does not have a heavy synthetic blast in the opening compared to other fresh aquatics on the market, so the quality is very good. The scent is very well blended. There is a subtle watermelon/berry vibe which is amazing. the bottle design is a work of art with this scent. sprayer is very generous so no more than 3 sprays are required with this. If you are a fan of high quality aquatics look no further. If you already own pasha noir edition, this can still work as a day time alternative or for warmer days. i have both of these side by side at work at the perfume section and often test the two to see the difference and they are almost the same but the sport is much more fresher out of the two and the noir edition is more woody also a great scent. edit lasting power 7-10 hours give or take with 4 sprays

Really, really, really, like it!! Is it similar to others?... yes. Is it lacking performance?... sadly, yes. Should it be in a red bottle and called “noire”?... definitely not!!! But is it a really good fragrance?... YES IT IS!!! The Citruses are delicious, not bitter, not too sweet, not tart... just delicious!! The Watery and Sea notes are amazingly done... somehow powdery and very refreshing. The Cedar and Sandal create a manly aura behind the scent... and finally, the Amber, not very present and certainly not enough to label this perfume as “Noire”, but enough to make it a very cozy fresh scent. Very reminiscent of the original Perry Ellis For Men from the nineties, just without the extreme aromatic sweetened note that Perry Ellis had, which gave me headaches. Mass pleasing, clean smelling... in fact, expensive clean smelling... and a real surprise!! Can be worn in any weather, day or night... and even being slightly geared towards men, it could easily pass as unisex. Performance is not good, you will need constant reapplying throughout the day in order to last, but honestly, I have very expensive perfumes that last as much, if not less... so, for the price is a very good buy... ...and besides... I love how it smells!!

The opening is very bland and generic, in all honesty. I blind bought it and in the first 5 minutes i felt like i wasted money. Until the mid hit after about 10 minutes, then i got hooked. Very classy take on a "sporty" frag. Cartier frags always smell high end and this is no different. It's fresh, but also warm and kinda spicy, but also floral. Yeah, all over the place, but it works, There's a subtle powdery factor here too but just enough so it doesn't get cloying or unwearable during the summer. If i could compare this to something it would be Prada Luna Rossa Ocean. Not the scent itself, but the idea and feeling behind it: take a generic genre and make it smell different and lux. Just wait for the mid and drydown before you dismiss this one. EDIT: i don't know about other people's skin but i can vouch for 9 hours on this fragrance on my skin. It mutes after a couple of hours but if i start to sweat or my body heats up a little bit it "comes alive" again very noticeably. I have the same "issue" with Varvatos' XX, Kenzos and Bvlgari fragrances.
