Roadster

Parfumour’s Interpretation of Cartier Roadster

Roadster was Cartier’s fresh minty amber, built to capture an open-road drive, before it was discontinued, and our version brings it back as a long-lasting eau de parfum.

The Story Behind the Scent

Roadster, released by Cartier in 2008 and composed by house perfumer Mathilde Laurent, was meant to capture the spirit of an open-road drive, a fresh minty amber built around a cool mint and citrus opening over a warm labdanum, vanilla and cashmere wood base. It has since been discontinued.

Our interpretation brings it back, rebuilt at 40 percent perfume oil so the minty opening and the warm ambered base last far longer than the original.

How Our Version Compares to the Original

The original has been discontinued and is hard to find. We rebuild the same fresh minty amber character as an eau de parfum and sell direct, so you can wear it again without paying resale prices.

Who It’s For

It suits anyone who loves a fresh minty amber scent.

Common Questions

How close is it to Cartier Roadster?

Very close. We rebuild the same minty amber around mint, bergamot, labdanum and vanilla, bringing back the discontinued Cartier favourite as a long-lasting eau de parfum.

Is the original still available?

The original has been discontinued and is now hard to find, or only sold at high prices by resellers. Our version brings the same style back so you can wear it again without hunting for a bottle.

Is this the same perfume as Cartier Roadster?

No. We do not use the same formula or ingredients. It is an independent interpretation made to evoke the same style, created because the original is no longer easy to buy.

How long does it last?

You can expect several hours on skin. Spraying onto clothing as well as skin helps it last even longer.

Who is it best for?

It is made for men who love a fresh, minty amber for everyday wear.

How should I apply it?

Spray on pulse points such as the wrists, neck and inner elbows. A light spritz on clothing makes it last through the day.
