It starts with mint as the protagonist, but soft, not strong. I sensed tangerine and lavender, though faintly. In the heart phase, coriander and wood add refinement. Soft woody finish. 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 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 too much attention.
I’ll soon have this fragrance. It’s a great classic, as much as the Santos, but much lighter. The reviewer Prieth already did a comprehensive and accurate review, so read it before getting it. Although I’ve already said about the Santos: it can’t be missing from any male collection. PS: I never liked its bottle; it always seemed too unfeminine to me.
I discovered it on vacation in New York looking for something different for my partner, who was already tired of smelling the same perfumes 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 to wear it because I see it as very much for men; it carries obvious mint, but it’s not just mint. It’s an attractive man, hard to understand but easy to love.
Another one of my favorites. I used it years ago and it’s fascinating, unique, elegant, and attractive… uh, what more can I say?
Pleasant, elegant, and with personality; it stands out without 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 wood-anise base is delicious. As it dries down, it resembles the current Santos a lot, 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 holds up 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.
Smells very similar to the original formula of Tsar by Van Cleef, but with more class and appeal. You can detect patchouli, lavender, and woods, with a subtle touch of vanilla. I see it as perfect for work or formal events. Pasha is an excellent option to buy! Score: 8/10.
Pasha is a great perfume; it competes with Declaration d’Un Soir as one of the brand’s best. They’re different, but both beautiful and versatile. As Beto Ruiz says, it’s pleasant, elegant, and stands out 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 felt 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. Smells very similar to Tsar, but fresher (mint), less sweet (maybe due to juniper), and more spicy, also approaching YSL Jazz. I call it ‘the missing link’: a group of fragrances (Jazz, Tsar, Pasha, Safari, Salvador, Photo) from 1988 to 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 tried Pasha today and it reminded me of Dufour Ocean. It’s for adults, 30 and up. Lasts about 6 hours; moderate longevity on my skin. The trail is consistent for the first hour, 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 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 loved Pasha by Cartier, but it was short-lived. I like this style, and although it’s a summer scent, on my skin it lasted barely an hour before my date. Then I tried The Dreamer by Versace (before its reformulation), which performed better day and night in this genre. A good perfume, but test it first: it’s not long-lasting in general.
I bought it in 1998 and loved it; I still have the bottle with a bit left as a souvenir. Recently, I bought it while traveling to use at night. There are three versions, but I chose this classic one (the others seemed too fresh and citrusy). I’ve already used it and 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 wood lover and a Cartier classic didn’t disappoint. Good trail and longevity, about 5 to 6 hours. If you’re looking for longevity and presence, I recommend it.
I don’t know if it’s the reformulations or my nose, but before it gave me a very difficult cumin note. I’ve read they softened other brand perfumes, maybe here too. The only clear thing is the mint: fresh but not realistic, lasting the whole life of the perfume. The rest is a standard masculine base: wood, aromatic, spicy, slightly sweet. I’d bet that in 1992 it wasn’t like this. The power 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 3-euro aftershaves, you can’t help thinking about the official overpriced version. At a discount price, for what it is, it’s fine.
Although the pyramid doesn’t say it, the brand uses goldfen alyssum. According to Fragrantica, it smells like sweet flowers, floral, and honey, like jasmine or magnolia. It has a slight sweet spot, but not much.
I wore Pasha for a few days and watched Teen Wolf. Back in 1985, men smelled like the forest, aromatic fern. I don’t know when it shifted to water and then to those boring, sweet woods. Pasha, from 1992, seems like that missing link between oriental and fern. It opens herbal and mentholated, then spices over a sweet amber base. It’s an oriental that’s also green, balanced, and with its own stamp. The combination works, staying 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, elegant men, in shirts or polos, even in winter. It opts for discretion and offers a layer of robust good scent for gentlemen. All my love for this perfume that makes me appreciate the 90s.
A classic of its 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 miracle, but it hangs around for about 7 hours and projects well. The 2016 version smells just like the 2000s one. In short, a classic, elegant all-season scent. What luck that it’s still being made.
Pasha by Cartier is a lost cause for me. Whether it’s my possible cilantrophobia or caraway phobia (though I’m not sure), this one triggers it. It starts with a citrus explosion of bergamot and lemon, wrapped in lavender and vanilla—a lovely classic barbershop scent. But after half an hour, the illusion fades and a meaty, sweaty, animalic note kicks in, like lard for Turkish pashas. The citrus dies down, leaving caraway and cilantro to rule; they’re cousins of cumin. I don’t suit cumin, not in cooking or perfumes, even though it smells great in others. Here, the caraway smells like fresh cumin. Mixed with cilantro, which some say smells like grease and metal, it’s a true olfactory test. To me, it smells like thick fatty matter. But if you give it time, the dry down returns to a classic barbershop vibe with sandalwood, rose, and vanilla—very comfortable after that spicy hell. The recent version doesn’t last long, so you have to apply a lot. It’s for clean-cut gentlemen during the day; otherwise, with that cumin and caraway scent, you’ll smell dirty and like your armpits are singing La Traviata.
I’ve been wearing this for over a decade, and people always compliment my scent.
Totally agree with Josesan.
Damn, this guy smells like a monarch. Strong lavender and mint, but watch out: it has an animalic touch, like sex sweat, which ends up being fatally attractive.
The 1980s and early 1990s were an era that, from a current perspective, resembled a world that can no longer be understood. For me, even today, Pasha has an absolutely timeless opening, as if you seasoned a classic bar soap with a few drops of mandarin oil and threw in some mint leaves as time passed. It’s not only directed at the classic macho man but at a masculine image that is not characterized by being too metrosexual. It’s a masculine image that, in the morning, not only meticulously performs all types of body care but is conscious of its masculinity without placing it at the center of its actions. In my opinion, it has a Mediterranean touch that extends delicately, offering space for the grand base notes quite quickly. The warm and sweet patchouli combined with oakmoss really kicks Pasha into gear, because even if they don’t last long, they bring a light veil of their aroma to the base notes. Everything seems very natural and in no way artificial or exaggerated. It can also be said that the fragrance does not choose the user; the fragrance ‘selects’ the user and decides if it wants to stay with him or if it will cause rejection. It’s a very traditional, very woody, but fresh and aromatic fragrance. I see it more for a mature man than for a youngling, unless he doesn’t like to experiment and get out of the mass market, since it has the great advantage of being able to adapt to any day or night style, because it is elegant and versatile for a man to use on any occasion. It’s 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, with 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 a certain nostalgia and also a bit of discomfort in me, not because it’s unpleasant; on the contrary, Pasha is a beautiful fragrance. However, it does reveal a lot about how bad things currently are with the fragrance market, and specifically with men’s fragrances. Specifically regarding Pasha, as is Cartier’s custom, the name derives from an accessory of greater relevance to the house: the Pasha watch designed in 1985. The origin of the name is uncertain; on one hand, it is said that supposedly it was a commission 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, water-resistant watch that was elegant but compatible with the practical tasks men generally liked to perform (stepping away from the jewelry-box style that seemed more appropriate for underworld leaders who wanted 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’s in the style of Chanel Pour Monsieur, Van Cleef & Arpels Tsar, and Yves Saint Laurent Jazz, 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 impression of hygiene to avoid the impression that one has simply rolled around in the plants. It has some oriental chords, perhaps spicy in the middle of the drydown, but I consider this perfectly omissible if one doesn’t pay enough attention. Let’s agree that the sillage and longevity are between poor and average. The men’s fragrance market is, in my opinion, quite barren territory today, not only because they are stuck in a fashion that leaves so little room for experimentation and innovation, like woodsy-sweet accords with ambroxan, but because it’s clear they have profoundly changed their own concept of how to interpret masculinity. While some voices in the past (or perhaps not so long ago, depending on the country) from the academic world got 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 concepts reserved for the darkest and most abstruse academics, today those ideas have become perfectly marketable. The commercial world learned from the academics, and now products like Bad Boy emerge, a fragrance so impersonal and so unpalatable but tenderly endorsed as a fragrance for men seeking to form new masculinities. Pasha, in that sense, is a fragrance that is not only contextually different but also philosophically different, where hyper-profitable industries become public opinion shapers and guides for social transformation despite being absolutely disconnected from the practical lives of the people they try to sell to (and let’s note 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 rather that these premises have become perfectly profitable. They replaced marketing directors with PhD sociologists in gender studies, and it worked out wonderfully for them since they are fulfilling virtually identical functions, and the quality of the fragrances has been relegated to a secondary plane. Pasha is a fragrance first and a fragrance only.
Spectacular fougère. Long-lasting and wonderful. It dresses you in elegance. Just so, young ones should abstain. This is for milfs.
I thought I was crazy, but reading some previous comments, I have similar thoughts: the opening smells like armpit sweat 😯. I’ve been giving it a chance; I bought good 10ml vials that allow me to test it thoroughly and on different occasions, and the drydown is better. I was looking for something similar to YSL Jazz, but it’s not like I remember Jazz; I find it must be somewhat blurred by reformulations, and it still doesn’t convince me.
I have an absolute addiction to this fragrance, and since I bought it, it’s the one I wear almost daily, and I like it and am surprised by it more each day. And it’s because I don’t perceive it the same way as the first time I applied it; it’s like it’s adapting to my skin, or my skin to it, we are getting to know each other, and every day it offers something new and we fit better together. I even notice it lasts longer. At first, I didn’t notice it smelled as dirty as people said, but yes, we are building trust, and it’s showing me its true essence. Like two people who get to know each other, fall for each other, and fall a little more in love every day as their sweat mixes. This Pasha is fresh and green, warm, animalic, like 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 for special and semi-formal occasions. It’s not a fragrance for teenagers.
I’m a fan of vintage scents (chypres, fougères). Pasha de Cartier belongs to another era; when you smell it, it feels like it’s from the past. This year it turned 30 on the market. It’s a strong scent where mint and lavender are the main chords, and I also sense a certain ‘heavy’ note where I’m not sure if it’s anise or patchouli giving it a slightly ‘dirty animal’ vibe, but despite that detail, it never loses its elegance. The new flankers released 20 years later (Pasha Noire, Parfum, Sport) have little to do with this original Pasha; I dare say they have almost nothing in common except the name. It’s an elegant perfume that, despite evoking a past image, doesn’t feel out of place. This is vintage with class and elegance, and you can tell it smells expensive. It’s recommended for men over 35, though a 20-25 year old can wear it easily and will stand out with a novel scent completely opposite to the current ‘blue’ trend, started in 2013 with the infamous Invictus. The most curious thing is that I own 50 perfumes, and this is one that unexpectedly gave me the most compliments. Its longevity and sillage are excellent. Undoubtedly, it’s in my top five.
Pasha, Santos, and Déclaration are the only Cartier icons for me. Perhaps the least appreciated by today’s noses, it’s not for influencers or YouTubers who live to grab attention. It’s for a serious, cultured, warm man who knows how to move among the elite. The current formula smells good, but as usual, the intensity is massacred. Although, not compared to the destruction of Santos.
I tested it at a perfumerie. I was surprised to detect a hint of Agua Brava/Quorum… But overall, it’s a much more refined, interesting, and evocative aroma. I like how it smells and recommend trying it… but keep in mind it’s not an example of great performance… totally agree with @svazquez7.
Pasha de Cartier, finally found the 90s edition with that classic Times New Roman-style capital ‘P’. The current lowercase version (just like Santos) feels like pure greed… well, I’d probably still buy it, lol. It’s a refined barbershop scent wandering between spicy and citrus notes; its signature is mandarin/woods, lavender, and mint. So far, I haven’t found anything similar in this style. If you want to dress up a gallery or use it for a corporate setting, this is the best choice. Performance is discreet at 6-7 hours, even though it’s vintage, and it does persist. I think I’ll wear this Pasha for the rest of my life, hunting for it in its vintage state.
One of my favorites—elegant and doesn’t smell like common fragrances. Works for casual or formal occasions. Great longevity and excellent price.
Pasha is my perfect complement to Declaration from the same house. Both are excellently crafted, and together they cover many needs. It’s a classic fougère (though some doubt it due to the lack of coumarin), featuring lavender, nice freshness, and subtle spices like cumin and anise, plus a well-worked cilantro. The dry down is outstanding: 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 mood and attractiveness. A great friend to have; I recommend trying it.
A wonderful scent that lasts ten minutes. In other words, a fraud that costs us too much.
I just bought my fourth bottle; it’s the one I repeat most in 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. Unlike Antaeus or Polo Green, which share similarities but don’t fit today’s vibe. Its weak point is longevity, lasting 5-6 hours. I hope they never discontinue it; it’s my favorite.
Timeless. Clean, fresh, and neutral, making it 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 classics and want to play it safe.
Pasha EDT smells old-school, elegant, and timeless—a high-quality classic fougère that’s soft and almost unisex for today. I love these fragrances, even if they aren’t the current pop trend, so don’t buy blindly. The EDP with leather is more masculine and nocturnal. It opens citrusy, then quickly reveals spices, dried herbs, sandalwood, and potent moss, evoking men from the 70s and 80s. It reminds me of Safari, Tsar, or Jazz, but less green and balsamic. It’s smoothed out, formal, and very elegant—French and baroque, yet not heavy or overly macho. It lasts 7-8 hours with 2 hours of projection. Be careful not to smell like a grandfather or too trendy; it’s not for young people or those chasing the latest fashion. It’s not versatile or summery; it demands good attire. Cartier isn’t a cheap or cheap-looking brand; today it costs around 70-80 euros.
A perfume so outdated it’s practically dead. Smells like shaving foam with lavender and sweet mint, like a 1970s barber. I don’t recommend it, but if you’re collecting to remember your grandfathers’ era, it’s worth having as a reference.
Smells incredible—very refined and elegant, classic 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 absolutely crushes the flankers.
Apologies, but this is a masterpiece. Citrus at the start, followed by a subtle animalic touch that gives way to rose and a sensual, elegant smokiness. Later, it settles into a fresh, mentholated scent without being sweet. It’s discreet, intimate, and perfect for summer nights or special occasions. Worth every penny; one of the best I’ve ever tried.
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.
