Clearly unisex, though more masculine with a sweet touch. A man wears it and women flutter around. I love it, but not on a woman. You can smell the liquor, vetiver, and patchouli, but I don’t detect rose or chocolate here. The iris powder is far away. For me, it’s masculine.
Clearly unisex, though leans masculine with a sweet touch. A man wears it and women swoon. I love it, but not on a woman. You can smell the liquor, vetiver, and patchouli, but I don’t detect rose or chocolate here. The iris powder is distant. To me, it’s masculine.
This Cartier is polarizing, as always depends on chemistry and mood. I was drawn to the name and bottle. In the box it smells sweet and smoky, but on skin it’s strong amaretto, a bit bitter, almost made me gag at first. Then it mellowed out and rose, iris, and cedar emerged. On my skin the cedar turns into creamy dark chocolate, delicious. Amber and caramel are light, just supporting the chocolate. Longevity is good, about 6-7 hours, but the sillage is weak; you have to get close. It’s just a kiss, not a blast.
This Cartier divides opinions, as always, it depends on chemistry and mood. I was drawn to the name and the bottle. It smells sweet and smoky in the box, but on the skin, it’s a strong amaretto, slightly bitter, almost making me gag at first. Then the heat subsides and the rose, iris, and cedar emerge. On my skin, the cedar turns into dark, creamy chocolate, delicious. The amber and caramel are light, just supporting the chocolate. The longevity is good, about 6-7 hours, but the sillage is weak; you have to get close. It’s just a kiss, not a flare-up.
Smells like old cognac in oak, elegant and perfect for cold weather. Unisex with that smoky touch you’ll love.
So well-constructed that it reaches opulence. It’s inherently Cartier’s best fragrance. Burning and sensual like Cacharel’s Gloria, yet harmonious like Britney Spears’ Fantasy. It opens with amaretto and bitter almonds, a dark and smoky base. The floral opening is minimal, highlighting the iris. The base has chocolate and caramel, but amber and patchouli dominate. The final vetiver is scandalous and drags the trail. It’s violent, a dragonian diva, an affected but satisfying kiss. It smells like burnt tiramisu and ash. The ingredients flame and vibrate. It’s penetrating, potent, and long-lasting. Not for showering or any occasion, but its beauty is undeniable. Perfect for Goku from Dragon Ball Z and totally unisex.
A marvel of perfumery: strong, rough, warm, and burning. It’s that moment of pressing your nose against a lover’s skin. At first, it might overwhelm, but soon it feels ‘hot’. I’ve never felt so much heat in a perfume. The drydown maintains a charming roughness. Good sillage and longevity. A beloved oriental jewel for cold weather.
Blessed essence of Cartier, divine beauty honoring the dragon. Elegance, sophistication, and purity in a precious bottle. It’s one of my most loved essences that I take great care of.
It breaks rules and divides opinions; it’s a special oriental. Warm, enveloping, strong, and sexy. It evokes a naked woman in her partner’s shirt, trembling with pleasure. It’s a potent aphrodisiac: an opening of vetiver soaked in liquor with a hint of almonds, followed by benzoin, amber, cedar, and musk adding warmth, finishing with dark bitter chocolate and white petals. It’s unisex, androgynous—not soft or feminine—it’s for a woman aware of her power and overwhelming allure. I can’t find a similar perfume; it’s timeless. It’s a pity they discontinued it for not understanding it, like Picasso’s paintings.
It breaks rules and divides opinions. It’s a warm, strong, and sexual oriental that evokes a woman fresh out of a wild passion, wearing only her partner’s shirt. It’s an aphrodisiac: it starts with liquor-soaked vetiver and almonds, then enters with benzoin, amber, and cedar. It finishes with bitter chocolate and white flowers. It’s unisex, androgynous, and overwhelming. A shame it’s discontinued, like Picasso’s paintings.
I didn’t know if I could tame this fierce dragon, but it has driven me wild. It’s a work of art: burning, wild, sexual, and elegant. It warmed my soul in December. It smells like a dark chocolate truffle with liquor and almonds, with a medicinal finish. It’s creamy, potent, and reminds me of Smiley by Jeanne Arthes, but for cold climates. Ideal for a woman who takes action, like Daenerys Targaryen.
It could be the breath of a malevolent dragon: a harsh alcohol opening that yields to an almond soaked in liquor with vetiver and chocolate. If you like it, it invites you to dinner; if not, it stains your shirt. The resins and amber make you feel naked and safe on its scaly back. It’s nighttime magic with torches.
I bought it blind and it’s an acquired taste, very vintage and far from trends. It smells of chocolate and wood, ideal for night. It conveys a dark potion with quality and distinction. Greetings from Chile.
I remember seeing the ad in a magazine fifteen years ago; I liked the long, historic name and the refined bottle, like a Western chinoiserie. I didn’t try it then. After years away from perfumes, I searched for it and it was already discontinued. I had it mythologized. Now that I tried it, it didn’t disappoint—it blew my mind. It’s ultra-sweet but nothing childish or burnt. It’s a smoky sweetness, tipsy, with a hint of human skin and safe dens. It has three phases: first an alcohol hit smelling of amaretto with smoky almond; then my favorite, dry woody almonds with a bitter, wet tone thanks to vetiver, which boosts everything without stealing the show; and finally chocolate enters, cold and mature, like suede, without the sweetness that upsets my stomach in other scents. It’s not a powerhouse, it’s soft and rebellious like the old ones, clinging to skin but lasting hours. It’s neither masculine nor feminine, it’s for whoever falls in love with it. Smells like real luxury, not room spray.
Reminding me of Rita Hayworth in ‘Lady of Shanghai’, this perfume is a game of mirrors in a bottle. It’s caustic, delirious, and full of oriental echoes. Cartier offers a sophisticated jewel that transcends time, perfect for those who love the glorious and the imperishable.
I saw the ad fifteen years ago and loved the name and the refined bottle, Chinese-style. Upon trying it, I was blown away: it’s ultra-sweet but not childish or gourmand. It’s a smoky, mature sweetness with human skin and vetiver that makes it humid and beautiful. The chocolate is cold and mature, like suede. It’s not a bomb; it clings to the skin and smells of real luxury.
Riding the Sacred Dragon, this perfume (per fumo) connects with the spiritual through its breath. This Dragon’s Kiss takes me from a home smelling of liquor and almonds to a humid forest where resins warm the blood. In the end, a sweet, soft trace remains—the kiss of someone special.
Like a woman riding the Sacred Dragon, smelling the world. Our sense of smell is our gateway to the subtle. This perfume takes me from a mundane place smelling of liquor and almonds to a lush, damp green forest, where resins penetrate like balm, expanding the heart and creating an inner fire. In the end, when the Dragon departs, a sweet, soft trace remains on the skin—the kiss of someone special.
KISS OF THE DRAGON, a 2001 USA-France co-production film, tells the adventures of Liu Siu-Jian, a Chinese intelligence agent sent to Paris to stop Mister Big, a heroin trafficker. A corrupt French inspector, Jean-Pierre Richard, prostitutes Jessica Kamen, whom Liu Siu-Jian supposedly falls in love with. At one point, Liu Siu-Jian disposes of Richard using the ‘Dragon Kiss’ technique, stabbing a needle into the neck that pumps blood to the brain, causing an aneurysm. Did Alberto Morillas intend this with Le Baiser du Dragon by Cartier? Perhaps, in some way, he succeeded. It’s an exquisite oriental perfume with woody and floral facets of great complexity. It begins with a dense, sophisticated citrus-woody sweetness at the level of a qipao, a tight natural silk Chinese dress. An enigmatic woman, a disciple of Fu-Manchu, smiles sardonically from her sharp eyes while her long red nails interlock over her chest in a sign of feigned cordiality. It’s a sweetness of dark, thick flowers and resinous syrups born from the most refined Chinese torture. A slight bitterness of bitter almond, amaretto, and neroli is perceived. The floral accord oscillates between moments of white indolence and red carnality, without losing that ambrosia of chocolate, amber, benzoin, and caramel. A must-have for any lover of oriental perfumes with a French twist. Obviously, I find it unisex if you have an open mind, as it’s not markedly floral in the feminine line. A dense and deep perfume for special occasions and sophisticated attire. The elegance of a Cartier jewel kissed by the fire of a Dragon of the Manchurian Mountains. Courtesy of Espartaco.
It’s a beautiful perfume… perhaps too alcoholized for me. But beautiful. I won’t say anything new that hasn’t been said in any previous review. But unfortunately… it has no sillage or fixation at all, as Anna Ce rightly comments. What a pity. Lasts about 3 hours and is very close to the skin. With how imposing it seems at first…
Can someone tell me why there are two different caps for the same product of this eau de parfum?
But didn’t they teach you manners? That’s the phrase I often heard as a child, said by an angry adult to reproach someone who had behaved badly. Today, however, I hear that word very little and see a lot of rudeness. I wonder what drives some people to be unpleasant, bullies, and disrespectful. Faced with so many unpleasant behaviors in different contexts, I’m increasingly saddened and feel out of place in the world around me. I’ve been accustomed, since I was young, to take responsibility for my actions and pay the consequences, without blaming others. That kindness I use naturally can be considered strange, as if to say ‘so what?’ or ‘why do they do that?’, invading others’ sphere. In a world where people do their own thing, it sounds odd that someone would be interested in another’s events. Despite the armor I’ve built over the years, deep down I’m still excited. I’m one of those who likes to know people and isn’t afraid to introduce themselves. I want to believe that, despite the unpleasant behaviors I’ve encountered and those I’ll encounter again, and even if my way of behaving isn’t very popular these days (in fact, sometimes I’ve been harshly criticized), there are still kindred spirits who can appreciate me as I am. Sometimes exceptional people arrive, full of qualities, kind and generous, who gift you a smile and share your same hobby. Le Baiser du Dragon is a gift from a friend in love with fragrances, a beautiful person. The fragrance is warm, woody, sweet, and intoxicating, with a mainly feminine character and soft floral accents. The freshness of bitter almond opens the accord along with the softness of neroli and gardenia. The French jeweler created it to illustrate rich Chinese culture. I note a somewhat soapy and very cold rose walking through vetiver and neroli. It’s a very interesting journey of notes. The salad is perceptible but not extreme, and the longevity is about 6 hours on my skin. I think it’s very special and I’m curious to see how it will develop in the cold. This dragon could be a great pet; it roars just behind the door to create an impression and then curls up with its guest on the sofa. But be careful! Its spirit remains restricted and barely faithful to anyone, with different faces: warm-cold, sweet-bitter, with spiced flowers… and the mythical animal is sometimes loved, sometimes hated, spitting fire or ice. Sometimes only dreams evoke such surprising and fine fragrances; maybe this ‘remote memory’ is simply the harmony of the most diverse things. It’s a surprise that you can still find something like this, harmonious and well-constructed. Thanks, my friend.
A work of art by master Alberto Morillas. On my skin, it’s supremely elegant, seductive, powerful, and mysterious; the woody notes stand out with a slight almond touch and boozy vibe from the amaretto liquor, with very well-balanced flowers. It’s a notable, different, and unique perfume. It has excellent projection and longevity, at least 8 hours on skin, and I’ve received compliments, which is always nice. Would I buy it again? Yes.

A scent that smells like liquor and wood. There’s a hint of lily along with rose and jasmine. As the hours pass, the liquor evaporates and the woods take the spotlight with a notable sweetness that isn’t cloying. I think it’s perfectly unisex.
Christmas. That was the first thing that came to mind with Le Baiser du Dragon. More specifically, truffles that only adults enjoy: dark chocolate filled with liquor. Christmas in a cabin in the woods, by the fireplace, enjoying those truffles after a walk through the forest. I struggle to distinguish the floral notes, but I’ll keep the rest of the sample sent by marta7b for when we start wearing boots and sweaters, which I think is when I’ll enjoy it the most.
Perhaps due to the name and some ingredients, I expected something potent and intense. Since it’s not easy to get your hands on, I almost bought it blind, but upon trying it, I was surprised: the start is bitter, the bitter almond and neroli join in a sour combination, then comes out a delicate and subtle bouquet of flowers, and as it dries down, the benzoin and amber take over. It’s a soft perfume with little sillage, but good longevity. The bottle is gorgeous; it could sit in the vanity of a young lady from the harem of the Forbidden City, with that trace of innocence. Maybe it was reformulated; I’ll look for another sample.
Harder to find than the Holy Grail.
I’m halfway through the 50ml bottle, and what a surprise: it smells like that discontinued Roger & Gallet that I thought I’d forgotten forever—the most rancid thing I’ve ever smelled. The opening revolves around almond, but then it drifts into a hard-to-describe place: a woody resin with spices that remind me of a winter lentil stew. It’s a heavyweight, though softer than those Middle Eastern bombs. If you’re wondering if it’s for men or women, I’d say it’s right in the line of Dior Homme 2007: it projects a lot, lasts quite a while (though not all day), and while it has a masculine air, it’s not that lipstick iris vibe; it’s out there. It’s a masculine blend made for a man over fifty, well-dressed and commanding presence, who doesn’t care about trends or look like a gallery clown. How to wear it? No more than two sprays on the shirt. If you just put it on, you might imagine yourself as Aunt Clotilde with a beard and men’s clothes; wait half an hour before heading out. Verdict: ten out of ten, although my favorite molecular weight is still an Álvarez Gómez Concentrated Cologne. On the other hand, some feminine scents are excellent for the money, so prominent that a 50ml bottle is enough to spray until you’re nauseous; a nice little gift for a daughter or wife when boredom strikes. Back to aldehydes and gourmand notes in men’s fragrances, it’s a game of ‘does it matter if it’s for women.’ Yes? No?
