"La Panthère" by Cartier Eau de Parfum is a modern chypre built around radiant gardenia and velvety musk—feline, elegant, and unmistakably Cartier.

The scent opens with a fresh-fruity sparkle of rhubarb, strawberry, bergamot, anise, and dried fruits. At its heart, luminous gardenia blooms with orange blossom, pear, rose, and ylang-ylang. A refined base of musk, oakmoss, patchouli, and a whisper of leather creates a sensual, lasting trail. (Launch: 2014; floral-feline chypre accord confirmed by Cartier.)

Bottle Description: The signature faceted flacon reveals the sculpted face of a panther within the glass—a striking homage to the Maison’s icon.

At Perfumes LA, we recommend it for day-to-evening sophistication when you want a polished white-floral aura with modern chypre depth.
