The rose is almost not a Cartier flower
To me, the rose is almost not a Cartier flower. It’s too classic, too romantic, too mawkish, too much of a cliché or too commonplace. The flower has always been a symbol of femininity and that bores me. It makes me sad because there are countries where men wear roses, and it represents masculinity and virility. In the end, I said to myself that I could twist it to really show off its beauty.

The daily lemming
A lemming for fans of Cartier's La Panthère: this awfully tempting limited edition collector bottle at Macy's. "Maison Cartier offers a unique new accord, combining a flower and a sensation: a feline floral fragrance. To express femininity, Mathilde Laurent chose to explore the glory of a radiant gardenia, sensual yet delicate. For an animal touch, she created a soft velvety musk. Enjoy this fragrance in a special limited-edition bottle." $129 for 75 ml Eau de Parfum.
