It starts with prominent but soft mint, not strong. I sensed mandarin and lavender, though faintly. In the heart phase, coriander and wood add refinement. Soft woody finish. It seems like a summer scent due to the mint. It has good longevity but a soft trail. It’s elegant, like all Cartier, but more discreet than its name suggests. It doesn’t have the punch of the Santos nor the complexity of Declaration or Must pour Homme. Ideal for feeling clean, but not impressive. I don’t think it works for night or social events; more for the office, without drawing much attention.
I’ll soon have this fragrance. It’s a great classic, as much as the Santos, but much lighter. The reviewer Prieth has already written a comprehensive and accurate review, so read it before you get it. Although I’ve already said about the Santos: it can’t be missing from any man’s collection. PS: I never liked its bottle; it always seemed too unmasculine to me.
I discovered it on holiday in New York looking for something different for my partner, who was already tired of smelling like perfume all day. When I was about to give up, Pasha appeared: a masculine beauty that conquers you and whispers ‘hey, feel me, I’m different’. It’s authentic, elegant and charmingly masculine. Although I love it, I don’t dare wear it myself because I see it as very much for men; it carries obvious mint, but it’s not just mint. It’s an attractive man, difficult to understand but easy to love.
Another one of my favourites. I used it years ago and it’s fascinating, unique, elegant and attractive… uff, what more can I say?
Pleasant, elegant and with personality, it stands out without being annoying. It’s very much in the style of late 80s and early 90s fougères. The mint stands out, along with citrus and lavender, and the woody base with anise is delicious. As it dries down, it resembles the current Santos, although with better longevity. It’s a pity the reformulated Santos smells good but doesn’t last. Pasha is ideal for hot summer days; it wears well at the beach and even in the office. I like it; it’s not spectacular but has more punch than the Santos and smells modern.
It smells very similar to the original formula of Van Cleef’s Tsar, but with more class and appeal. You can detect the patchouli, lavender and woods, with a subtle touch of vanilla. I see it as perfect for work or formal events. Pasha is an excellent choice to buy! Rating: 8/10.
Pasha is a great perfume; it competes with Declaration d’Un Soir as one of the brand’s best. They are different, but both beautiful and versatile. As Beto Ruiz says, it’s pleasant, elegant and distinctive without being intrusive. On my skin, its peak is the dry-down phase; as it settles, it becomes slightly oriental and gives me a mild tickle on the nose, but it’s not strong or spicy. It’s wearable, special and suitable for many occasions. Edit: Tested on a fresh day, it seemed more oriental, spicy and talcum-like. Scent 6.5/10, Versatility 5/10, Trail 6/10, Longevity 7/10.
I bought it blind and it met my expectations. Top quality, on par with Hermes, Dior, Guerlain and Chanel. It smells very similar to Tsar, but fresher (mint), less sweet (perhaps due to the juniper) and more spiced, also approaching YSL Jazz. I call it ‘the missing link’: a group of fragrances (Jazz, Tsar, Pasha, Safari, Salvador, Photo) between 1988 and 1992 that added freshness to 80s fougères without being as disruptive as Cool Water. They have many followers and are still selling 25 years later.
I absolutely loved Pasha by Cartier, but it was short-lived. I enjoy this style, and although it’s a summer scent, on my skin it lasted barely an hour before my appointment. I then tried The Dreamer by Versace (before its reformulation), which performed better than most in this genre, both day and night. A good perfume, but try it first: it’s not generally long-lasting.
I tried Pasha today and it reminded me of Dufour Ocean. It’s for adults, aged 30 and above. It lasts about six hours; on my skin it has moderate longevity. The trail is consistent for the first hour and then appears occasionally. At first, it smells of rose and jasmine (feminine notes), but as it dries down, it becomes totally masculine with patchouli and wood. I like it: it’s refined, delicate and original, with that 90s vibe. Very fresh and slightly sweet, ideal for hot climates; I’d wear it at night. Trail 7/10, longevity 6/10, scent 8/10. If you can’t find it, I have a new one in Argentina, let me know.
I bought it in 1998 and liked it a lot; I still have the bottle with a little bit left as a souvenir. Recently I bought it while travelling to use it at night. There are three versions, but I chose this one, the classic (the others seemed too fresh and citrusy to me). I’ve already used it and I still like it, although I perceive it as weaker, less intense than when I bought it years ago. It’s discreet and elegant.
Magnificent fragrance; I bought it because I’m a lover of woods and a Cartier classic didn’t disappoint me. Good trail and durability, about five to six hours. If you’re looking for durability and presence, I recommend it.
Although the pyramid doesn’t state it, the brand puts goldfen alyssum in. According to Fragrantica, it smells of sweet flowers, floral, and honey, like jasmine or magnolia. It has a slight sweet point, but not much.
I don’t know if it’s due to reformulations or my own head, but before it gave me a very difficult cumin note. I’ve read that they softened other perfumes from the brand, perhaps here too. The only clear thing is the mint, fresh but not realistic, which lasts the whole life of the perfume. The rest is a standard masculine base: wood, aromatic, spiced, slightly sweet. I’d bet that in 1992 it wasn’t like this. The potency is medium; it’s more of a cleanliness perfume for the day or clean environments, without standing out. It smells good, but when it smells like three-euro aftershaves, one can’t help thinking about the official overprice. At a discount price, for what it is, it’s fine.
I wore Pasha for a few days and watched the film Teen Wolf. In 1985, men smelled of forest, aromatic fern. I don’t know when it shifted to water and then to those boring sweet woody scents. Pasha, from 1992, seems that lost link between the oriental and the fern. It opens herbal and mentholated, then spices over a sweet amber base. It’s an oriental that is also green, balanced, and with its own stamp. The combination works, it stays soft and polished. It has freshness, a forest breeze, and a mysterious, spicy touch. It sought a style different from its jovial contemporaries; Pasha is for refined and elegant people, in shirt or polo, even in winter. It opts for discretion and offers a layer of robust good smell, for the gentleman. All my love for this perfume that makes you appreciate the 90s.
A classic of the era, brother of Jazz and Tsar. I love the opening: light citrus and mint, then woods and spices. Balanced, elegant, and discreet. Although the name sounds like a heavy oriental, the spices don’t dominate; they accompany the citrus. I perceive it as citrus-spiced, without sweetness. It doesn’t last a fortune, but it endures about seven hours and projects well. The 2016 version smells just like the 2000 one. In short, a classic and elegant all-rounder. What luck that it’s still being made.
Cartier Pasha is a lost cause for me. Blame my possible cilantrophobia or caraway phobia (though I’m not entirely sure). It begins with a citrus explosion of bergamot and lemon, wrapped in lavender and vanilla, a lovely classic barber scent. But after half an hour, the illusion fades and a carnal, sweaty, animal smell creeps in, like lard for Turkish pashas. The citrus dies down and caraway and cilantro rule the roost, cousins of cumin. Cumin doesn’t suit me, neither in cooking nor in perfumes, although it smells good in others. Here, the caraway smells like fresh cumin. Mixed with the cilantro, which some say smells of grease and metal, it’s a test of one’s sense of smell. To me, it smells like thick fatty matter. But if you give it a chance, in the dry down it returns to being a classic barber scent with sandalwood, rose, and vanilla, very comfortable after the spiced inferno. The recent version doesn’t last long and you have to apply a good amount. It’s for clean-cut gentlemen during the day, because otherwise, with the cumin and caraway smell, you’ll smell dirty and like your armpits are singing La Traviata.
Completely agree with Josesan.
I’ve been wearing this for over a decade and people have always commented on it.
Ostia, this bloke smells like a monarch. Strong lavender and mint, but be warned: there’s an animal touch, akin to sex sweat, which ultimately proves fatally attractive.
The decade of the 1980s and early 1990s was an era that, from the current point of view, resembled a world that can no longer be understood. For me, even today, Pasha has an absolutely timeless beginning, as if you had seasoned a classic shaving soap with a few drops of tangerine oil and thrown some mint leaves in as time passed. It is not only directed to the classic macho type but to a masculine image that is not characterised by being too metrosexual. To a masculine image that, in the morning, not only meticulously performs all types of body care but is aware of its masculinity without putting it at the centre of its actions. In my opinion it has a Mediterranean touch that extends delicately, offering space for the grandiose base note quite quickly. The warm and sweet patchouli combined with oakmoss really sets Pasha in motion, because even if they don’t last long they bring a light veil of their aroma to the base note. Everything seems very natural and in no way artificial or exaggerated. It can also be said that the fragrance is not chosen by the user. The fragrance ‘selects’ the user and decides if it wants to stay with him or if it will cause rejection. It is a very traditional, very woody, but fresh and aromatic fragrance. I see it more for a mature man than for a young lad, unless he doesn’t like to experiment and get out of the massified, as it has the great advantage of being able to adapt to any style of day and night, because it is elegant and versatile for a man to use it on any occasion. It is for a fine, cultured gentleman who never takes drugs and prefers to drink sparkling wine or champagne instead of beer. The vintage version I am testing, of medium duration and intensity, is an open window onto these times, this aromatic world that unfortunately is already past.
Pasha is a fragrance that, to be honest, generates in me a certain nostalgia and also a bit of discomfort, not because it’s unpleasant, on the contrary, Pasha is a beautiful fragrance, however, it does reveal a lot of how badly things are currently going with the fragrance market and specifically with masculines. Specifically about Pasha, as is customary with Cartier, the name derives from an accessory of greater relevance for the house, in this case: The Pasha watch designed in 1985, the origin of the name is uncertain, on one hand it is said that supposedly it was an order for a client named Pasha but this story was never confirmed as legitimate since it was never mentioned until after the product had already been created; the idea was simple, a compact, waterproof watch that was elegant but could be compatible with the practical tasks that men generally liked to perform (Distancing themselves from the jewelers-armourers that seemed more appropriate for what underworld leaders would want to show off). Pasha is a very herbal, very green, juicy and effervescent fragrance, it evokes with great fidelity the thick aroma of chlorophyll and foliage; it is of the style of Pour Monsieur by Chanel, Tsar by Van Cleef & Arpels and Jazz by Yves Saint Laurent without necessarily entering the field of rough woods like Kouros or Antaeus; fragrances that if launched today would be received with much coldness. Adding mint is a clever idea, its fresh traits give the idea of hygiene to avoid falling into the impression that one has simply rolled around in the plants. It has some oriental chords, perhaps spicy in the middle of the dry-down, but I consider this to be perfectly omissible if one does not pay the necessary attention. Let’s agree that the trail and longevity are between poor and average. The men’s fragrance market is, in my opinion, a fairly infertile ground today, not only because they are stuck in a fashion that gives so little space to experiment and innovate like the woody-sweet with ambroxan chords, but rather because it is noticeable how they have profoundly changed their own concept about how to interpret masculinity. While some voices of the past (or perhaps not so past depending on the country) of the academic world would get lost denouncing it as an existential vacuum of psychoanalytic nature due to not being a woman or some Oedipal complex and other nonsense, ideas that were once quasi-esoteric reserved for the darkest and most abstruse academics, nowadays it happens that those ideas have become perfectly marketable, the commercial world learned from the academies and now products like Bad Boy emerge, a fragrance so impersonal and so unpalatable but tenderly sponsored as a fragrance for men seeking to form new masculinities. Pasha in that sense is a fragrance not only contextually different but also philosophically different, where hyper-profitable industries become public opinion formers and social transformation guides despite being absolutely disconnected from the practical lives of the people they try to sell to (And let it be noted that this also happens in women’s perfumery with advertisements and slogans based on self-insertion and pseudo ‘girl power’); this is not a sign that even the most privileged economic classes agree with the premises of ‘social transformation’ but that these premises have become perfectly profitable, they have replaced marketing directors with sociologists with a PhD in gender and it has come out wonderfully as they are fulfilling virtually identical functions and the quality of the fragrances has been left on a secondary plane, Pasha is a fragrance first and a fragrance only.
Spectacular fougère. Long-lasting and wonderful. It dresses you in elegance. Just that, young ones, abstain. This is for milfs.
I thought I was crazy, but reading some previous comments I have similar thoughts: the opening smells to armpit sweat 😯. I’ve been giving it a chance, bought good 10ml that allow me to test it thoroughly and on different occasions, the dry-down is better. I was looking for something similar to YSL Jazz, it’s not like I remember Jazz, I find it must be somewhat blurred by reformulations, it doesn’t convince me yet.
I have an absolute addiction to this fragrance and since I bought it, it’s the one I wear almost daily, and every day I like it more and am surprised more. And it’s that I don’t perceive it the same as the first time I sprayed it; it’s as if it’s adapting to my skin, or my skin to it, we are getting to know each other and every time it offers something new and we fit better, even I notice it lasts longer. At first I didn’t notice it as dirty as they said, but yes, we are gaining confidence and it shows me its essence as it is. Like two people who know each other, like each other and fall in love a little more every day as the sweat of both mixes. This Pasha is fresh and green, warm, animal, a log freshly cut with an axe, aromatic, very spicy and damn rich.
It’s not modern but it is elegant and serious, ideal for hot climates day and night on special and semi-formal occasions. It’s not a fragrance for teenagers.
I’m a fan of vintage aromas (chypres, fougères). Pasha de Cartier belongs to another era; when you smell it, it feels like it’s from another time. This year it completed 30 years on the market. It’s a perfume with a strong aroma where mint and lavender are the main chords, and I also sense a certain ‘strong’ note where I don’t know if it’s the anise or the patchouli that give it a slightly ‘dirty animal’ air, but despite that detail it never loses its elegance. The new flankers that came out 20 years later (Pasha Noire, Parfum, Sport) have little to do with this original Pasha; I dare to say they have almost nothing in common, just the name. It’s an elegant perfume that, despite evoking a past image, doesn’t clash. This is vintage but with class, elegance, and it’s clear it smells expensive. It’s recommended for those over 35, although a young man of 20-25 can wear it calmly and will stand out with a novel aroma completely opposite to the current ‘blue trend’, started in 2013 with the infamous Invictus. The most curious thing is that I have 50 perfumes and this is one of those that unexpectedly has given me the most compliments. Its duration and trail are excellent. Without a doubt, it’s in my top five.
Pasha, Santos and Déclaration are, for me, the only Cartier insignias. Perhaps the least appreciated by current noses, it’s not for influencers or YouTubers who live off grabbing attention. It’s for a serious, cultured, warm man who knows how to conduct himself with people of high standing. The current formula smells good but, as is customary, with intensity massacred. Although not compared to the destruction of Santos.
I tried it in a perfumery. I was surprised to find a hint of Agua Brava/Quorum… But overall, it’s a much more refined, interesting and evocating aroma. I like how it smells quite a lot and recommend giving it a try… but one must bear in mind that it’s not an example of performance… totally in agreement with @svazquez7.
Pasha de Cartier: finally found the 90s edition with that Times New Roman-style capital letter. The current lowercase version (just like Santos) is pure greed… well, I suppose I’d buy it too, just in case. It’s a very refined barbershop scent, wandering between spice and citrus; its signature is tangerine/woods, lavender and mint. So far, I haven’t seen any similarities with anything else in this style. If you want to surround yourself in a gallery with this, it’s the best choice, or for a corporate environment. Its performance is discreet at 6-7 hours, even being vintage, and it persists. I think I’ll wear this Pasha for the rest of my life, hunting for this perfume at its vintage point.
One of my favourites, elegant and doesn’t smell like common fragrances. I find it suitable for both casual and formal occasions. Very good longevity and excellent value for money.
Pasha is my perfect complement to Declaration from the same house. Both are very well made, and with the two you cover many needs. It’s a classic fougère (though some doubt it due to the lack of coumarin), with present lavender, nice freshness, and subtle spices like cumin and anise, plus a very worked-through coriander. The base is brilliant: fragrant, earthy woods with a slight sweetness. It has the youthful elegance of Jazz and the physique of Tsar, but with its own character. Excellent for mild and warm seasons, versatile with good longevity and projection. It’s a delight when it’s hot and you need to lift your spirits and charm. A great friend; I advise trying it.
A wonderful aroma that lasts ten minutes. In other words, a fraud that costs us dearly.
I’ve just bought my fourth bottle; it’s the one I repeat most from my collection of over 20. The scent is perfect, very well balanced, fresh and mature with a subtle sweetness that makes it round and timeless. Different from Antaeus or Polo Green, which share similarities but have no place today. Its weak point is the longevity, 5-6 hours. I hope they never discontinue it; it’s my favourite.
Timeless. Clean, fresh, and neutral, very versatile for the mature gentleman. Soft, creamy, woody dry-down. Average performance: 2 hours of projection followed by 4 hours of personal bubble. I recommend it if you like the classics and want to play it safe.
Pasha EDT smells old-school, elegant and timeless, a classic fougère of quality but soft, almost unisex for today. I love these fragrances, even if they aren’t to the current pop taste, so don’t buy blindly. The EDP with leather is more masculine and nocturnal. It opens citrusy and quickly reveals spices, dried herbs, and sandalwood with potent moss, like men from the 70s and 80s. It reminds me of Safari, Tsar, or Jazz, but less green and balsamic. It’s softened, formal, and very elegant, French and baroque, without being heavy or alpha-male. It lasts 7-8 hours with 2 hours of projection. Be careful not to look like a grandpa or overly trendy; it’s not for young people or those wanting to smell of the latest fashion. It’s not versatile or for summer; it demands good dressing. Cartier isn’t a cheap or tacky brand; today it costs around 70-80 euros.
A perfumery masterpiece to the death. Smells like shaving foam with lavender and sweet mint, like a barber from the 70s. I wouldn’t recommend it, but if it’s for collecting and remembering the grandfathers’ era, it’s worth having as a reference.
Smells incredible, very refined and elegant, typical of Cartier. At first, it seems to have no projection, staying close to the skin, but after an hour it creates an amazing aura that you enjoy all day. I think it’s ideal for cold days; it shines more during the day and evening than at night. The original gives the flankers a real run for their money.
I tried it and absolutely loved it, but it just didn’t suit me. I gifted it to my father, and it fits him perfectly. Now I have to decide on the Parfum version.
Apologies, but this is a masterpiece. Citrus at the start, followed by a subtle animal touch that gives way to rose and a sensual, smoky elegance. Later, it settles into a fresh, mentholated scent without being sweet. It’s discreet, intimate, and perfect for summer evenings or special occasions. Worth every penny; one of the best I’ve tried.
