Must de Cartier Pour Homme

Grapefruit and bergamot open Must de Cartier pour Homme with a slightly unusual edge: anise threads through the citrus, adding a dry, faintly licorice-like sharpness that keeps the top from reading as a standard fresh masculine.

By the editors · 2 min readGrapefruit and bergamot open Must de Cartier pour Homme with a slightly unusual edge: anise threads through the citrus, adding a dry, faintly licorice-like sharpness that keeps the top from reading as a standard fresh masculine. It's a distinctive choice that sets the tone for what follows.

The heart is warm and direct — ginger and cinnamon form a classic spice accord, dry rather than sweet, with enough heat to push through from the citrus into the base without losing character.

The base is generous: tonka bean and vanilla provide sweetness; sandalwood and cedar give structure; vetiver and patchouli keep things earthy and slightly dark; musk anchors everything cleanly. A substantial oriental masculine that wears well through an evening and finishes long and warm.
