Déclaration d'un Soir

The brand also innovated in other fields, notably the world of watchmaking and perfumery. Its first fragrance in 1981, Must, upended the codes of perfumery at the time. In 1998, Cartier presented Déclaration, a woody floral and sparkling masculine fragrance. Cartier draws on this fragrance to create, in 2012, Déclaration d’un Soir.

The magical moment of Déclaration d’un Soir

While Déclaration has been revisited, Déclaration d’un Soir also brings forth a flood of complex feelings. Here, day has given way to night, and the moment seems ripe for the most beautiful of declarations. It will be a romantic and mysterious moment. In the air floats a scent of lightness and amorous ardor. Déclaration d’un Soir is, of course, a fragrance of love. It depicts a fantasized man, the one crossed paths with and idealized for the duration of a wild glance, an unforgettable moment. Déclaration d’un soir is an intense, even explosive fragrance. It releases an intensity similar to what one feels when the person loved makes their declaration to you… Impulse, intensity, love potion… Everything here comes together so that the most beautiful of declarations becomes the most beautiful night ever experienced.

The spicy fragrance of Déclaration du Soir

It is the talented Mathilde Laurent, who is also the house perfumer for Cartier, who was given the heavy task of imagining the notes of a declaration made one evening. She runs black pepper through the fragrance like a true accelerator of emotions. Déclaration d’un Soir opens with very spicy notes of pepper, explosive and intense, especially in combination with cumin. The heart is more feminine with the presence of rose, which lends romanticism to the composition. Rose is then paired with nutmeg as well as aromatic notes. The base is woodier thanks to sandalwood and wraps the whole in a gentle tenderness. About Déclaration d’un Soir, the house of Cartier states: it is an alchemist’s formula whose ingredients grant a man every boldness, from playfulness to strength, from gentleness to ardor. As for the bottle, it adapts the lines of its predecessor, slightly modified. The silvery ring of the cabochon contrasts with the grey juice of the composition, lending a touch of modernity.

Déclaration d’un Soir refers back to Déclaration, released in 1998. The declaration now becomes nocturnal. Déclaration d’un Soir is an intense fragrance, one that breaks down inhibitions and allows one to give in to the wildest of declarations.
