Declaration

Declaration, a Fresh Spicy Woody for Men

Declaration is a distinctive, spicy woody classic. Our version keeps that character, opening with bitter orange, caraway, and bergamot before a cardamom, cinnamon, ginger, and pepper heart settles over cedar, vetiver, and leather.

The Story Behind the Scent

Cartier built Declaration as a fresh yet spicy scent with real personality, warm and a little woody smoky. The idea was refined character, elegant but distinctive.

That crisp spiciness is its appeal. The bitter orange keeps it fresh, the spices give it warmth, and the cedar and vetiver ground it. Our interpretation follows that same refined path.
