First review of this new Cartier launch. I went to my trusted perfumer excited to try this new flanker, but I left disappointed. The opening is very strong with an overwhelmingly sweet caramel note; it lasts only a few minutes before the smoke kicks in. The smoky note is noticeable, but on the skin, it leaves an ashtray vibe, like extinguished cigarette butts. I know that scent well since I’m a smoker. I imagined a powerful longevity like the Parfum, but there’s nothing like it: it projects for an hour or less and then fades to skin scent. In summary, it’s not worth the price, shares nothing with other Pashas, and is a modern pivot toward sweet caramel or bubblegum-style perfumes. Its biggest downside is the poor longevity; its other flankers like the Parfum or Edition Noire far surpass it in both scent and performance.
First review of this new Cartier launch. I went to my trusted perfumer very excited to try it, but left disappointed. The opening is brutal with an overpowering sweet caramel; it lasts only the first few minutes before the smoke kicks in. The smoke note is very prominent and leaves an ashtray scent in the heart. If you want to smell like extinguished cigarette butts, this is your perfume. As a smoker, I know that smell well. I imagined a powerful longevity like Pasha Parfum, but nothing like it. It projects for an hour (or less) and then fades to skin scent. In short, it’s not worth the price, has nothing to do with other Cartier Pashas, and is a modern turn toward sweet, caramel, or bubblegum-style perfumes. Its biggest drawback is the abysmal longevity. Its other flankers, like Parfum or Edition Noire, far surpass it in scent and performance.
Nothing new, just another smoky and sweet perfume. A thousand times better than Pasha Parfum. Reminded me, without being identical, of Valentino Uomo Intense.
Saying ‘I hate it’ in the review isn’t an exaggeration. As usually happens, Cartier’s recent launches are boring. Pasha Noir Absolu lacks punch, feels lost, and doesn’t know what it wants to be. It doesn’t smell like its other flankers or the classic fougère; it smells like a low-quality, sweet, harmless, timid iris from Dior Homme Intense that the guts of ‘Noir’ can’t save. It’s very similar to Givenchy’s recent Gentleman Society, but that’s where the similarity ends. Nothing interesting. Pass.
Smells like smoked caramel, sometimes even like cigarettes or ash. I absolutely love it, but honestly, it doesn’t work for anyone else I’ve let try it on. Lasts about 4 hours, and I’d give the scent an 8/10.
Very modern. Starts citrusy but fades quickly to reveal a deep, invasive, intense caramelized sweetness, like sugar burning in a pot. Yes, you can smell the smoke, but it’s not offensive or cloying. Then floral notes and muted spices emerge. Projection and longevity are good. It’s so trendy that I wouldn’t even call it Pasha. I personally don’t like it, but it could work for a bold young guy at a club.
It starts citrusy and modern, but dies quickly to give way to a deep, invasive, intense caramelized sweetness, like sugar burning in a pot to make molasses. Yes, there’s smoke, and the result isn’t offensive, but it’s not flattering either. In the dry down, you can notice muted flowers and spices. Longevity and projection are good. It fits the season so well I wouldn’t even call it Pasha. Personally, I don’t like it, but for a bold young person, it could be a solid clubbing staple.
This perfume is truly original; its smoke and cotton candy are hypnotic. Its base is indeed from Pasha and fits entirely within the line of Noir and Noir Sport, giving it notable elegance. The incense quality is high-level and the sweetness is gourmand. I understand you might not like the combination, but claiming it’s just any other sweet perfume and that it doesn’t fit the Pasha line is unsustainable. For me, it’s one of the best designer launches of 2023 so far. The only familiar thing I notice is perhaps Terroni by Orto Parisi, except here the fruity part is replaced by the Pasha fougère and it’s much more wearable for daily wear.

Very particular aroma, with a smoky and sweet opening. It’s that burnt sugar sweetness that disappears in half an hour or less, giving way to a blend of wood and incense smoke that lasts until the end. It’s as particular as it is original; personally, I like it a lot, though I admit it won’t please everyone—it’s more for personal enjoyment. Cons: I find it not very versatile and with moderate longevity. If that initial sweetness lasted longer, it would be much better. Advice: of course, don’t buy blindly, test it first, and if possible, several times.

The opening felt very strong, almost like raw hair or wet dog. This lasts for the first 10 minutes until the famous caramel everyone talks about finally shows up.
Very smoky and powdery, it has something that makes it both vintage and modern. Sincerely, it’s a very particular scent in the designer world; not everyone will like it. I think it’s better for cold days and nights because of the mystery it exudes.
The opening seemed very strong to me, even smelling like urine or a soiled diaper. This lasted the first 10 minutes before giving way to the famous caramel everyone talks about.
The opening caught me off guard during my third try, and even today I still don’t like it, but it gets interesting as it dries down. It keeps that ash and cigar smoke vibe with spiced incense and old saltpeter. At the base, little by little, the legendary Pasha DNA enters with patchouli, mixing with the beginning while the sweetness drops until it becomes a niche aroma: mysterious, very woody, and with an almost animalic smokiness. It’s that sweetness that makes it so rare and sometimes unpleasant. I rejected it the first and second times, but with a sample, I’m starting to get it. It’s dark, nocturnal, and mysterious. A breath of fresh air for the modern designer, a risky bet in my opinion. It lasts a long time on my skin (10 to 12 hours), projects close, and releases bursts occasionally. Never buy blindly. If you like it for the price, it’s a great option for winter nights if you don’t seek compliments but want to enjoy that mysterious feeling.
A lady from ECI let me try it, perhaps because it sells little or because she wanted to laugh at my face when I brought my nose close. Look… the opening is terrifying. She said, ‘don’t worry, it changes to something better,’ but no, it doesn’t change, it gets worse. I’ve been wearing it for 8 hours and it keeps mutating, getting worse. I don’t know if it transforms completely on the skin, because it’s impossible to imagine anyone wearing it. I’m into weird scents, a huge fan of Alessandro Gualtieri, but what were these gentlemen from Cartier thinking? It smelled to me like a barrel of rotting herring drifting at sea. And this smell stuck to my olfactory memory every time I brought it close. The curious part is that I let more people smell it, and they all ran away horrified, as if I were holding a can of Slutengbögger to their faces.
It’s a smoky, vanilla, woody, and dark incense with a subtle freshness at the base (citrus, I suppose). It lasts quite a while: projects to 1.5 meters before dropping off to leave an adequate trail. On skin, it lasts over 10 hours; after that, around the 5-hour mark, an animalic touch appears, like civet, similar to the delicious musky part of YSL’s Kouros (though not the same). It’s not for beginners or those who prefer simple sweets like One Million or Scandal. If you like complex aromas, you’ll love it. It’s very niche, a dark sweet. I bought the bottle and will definitely buy backups. On the first day, a family member (versed in perfumes, over 30 years old) complimented me. Cartier always bets on the sublime and disruptive; if it were just watery citrus, it wouldn’t be Cartier. The peculiar thing is that it stays even after a shower. Sometimes it seems like it doesn’t project after 6 hours, but it easily lasts a full 8-hour day and more than 10 on skin. Sincerely recommended.
Imagine standing next to a bonfire: the wood smoke invades everything, but then it transforms into magic into a deep, sweet caramel that makes you want to smell your feet constantly because, although it satisfies, you always want more. That’s the feeling of this perfume. In one word: DELICIOUS.
I’ve tried this Pasha several times and noticed it ages beautifully over time xD. At first, it’s sweet, young, and modern, with a hint of smoky caramel (on my skin, it smells like chocolate), but as it dries down, it becomes animalic, classic, and vintage, as if revealing an 80s heart. Occasionally, it hints at violets, connecting with the Edition Noire EDT (which is also delicious). Maybe I’m wrong, but that’s how it feels to me. It’s very particular; in some phases, it might be hard for some noses. I like it because it’s original and different, so I enjoy it. I wouldn’t recommend it for young people (don’t get fooled by the initial blast) or if you’re looking for compliments. My girlfriend makes weird faces and says it smells like a cat to an old man or “dirty” haha. Just a heads up: I’ve read this isn’t the only one that does this. Try it on your skin, let it dry properly, and draw your own conclusions 🙂
It’s hard for me to get a handle on this one. It’s a super smoky and sweet scent, though it doesn’t reach the gourmand levels of Armani’s Stronger With You. The quality is top-notch, very typical Cartier—nothing artificial—but the price is outrageous. I’m not sure if I’m remembering old prices; perfumery seems to have gone to the moon, and 111€ for 100ml feels excessive. It has a brutal sillage; two sprays are noticeable, and it’s the kind of perfume that lingers all day. The opening is weird: instead of smelling like fire being lit, it smells like embers, like the glowing coals left in a fireplace after they’ve died down, which isn’t particularly pleasant. Then it evolves into burnt caramel, which doesn’t hook me, but after 10 minutes, it transforms completely into toasted sugar by the fire—sweet and very enjoyable, wrapped in woody notes from start to finish. If you don’t like smoky scents, this won’t work for you. I still don’t know if I’ve found my match.
After trying it a couple of times, I concluded that this Pasha is a perfume that ages as it evolves xD. Why? As soon as you spray it, it smells sweet, young, and modern with a dark smoked caramel (on my skin, it smells more like chocolate), but as it enters the dry-down, something more animal, classic, and even vintage slowly emerges, as if the heart of an 80s perfume is being exposed. You can also detect bursts of violet that connect with the Edition Noire EDT (very nice). Am I crazy? Maybe, but that’s how I feel. It’s a particular perfume and can result in being ‘difficult’ for certain noses at some stages. I like it, it seems original and different to me, so luckily I enjoy it. I don’t recommend it for young people (don’t be fooled by the opening) or for those looking for compliments. My girlfriend makes weird faces and says it smells like ‘meow,’ ‘old,’ and ‘dirty’ lol. Note, from what I read, it’s not the only one. So test well on skin, let it dry for a while, and draw your own conclusions 🙂
Cartier Pasha Noir Absolu is smoky, sweet, and woody. The opening is harsh, smelling of burnt and smoky sugar with an amber accord that on my skin gives an unpleasant, almost urinous vibe. That bad smell stays strong for an hour and a half before fading, leaving woods and tonka bean which are more bearable. I think it’s suitable for autumn and winter due to the sweetness and smoky tones. In my case, only for special occasions or personal enjoyment. The longevity was brutal (unfortunately), lasting almost 12 hours with a regular sillage. I didn’t like it at all; the scent is very bold, original, and risky, of the niche type. I haven’t tried anything similar, though it has some elements of Pasha Parfum. If you want to try something different, I recommend it, but not as a blind buy.
Pasha de Cartier Noir Absolu is smoky, sweet, and woody. The opening is harsh, like burnt sugar, and that amber accord smells like urine on my skin for about an hour and a half, which is annoying. Then it settles into more wearable woods and tonka bean. It’s ideal for fall and winter, but only for special occasions or personal enjoyment. The longevity was brutal, close to 12 hours, with average sillage. I didn’t like it at all; it’s bold and original, niche-style. I haven’t tried anything similar, though it has elements of Pasha Parfum. If you want something different, give it a try, but don’t buy it blindly.
Don’t buy it without smelling it first. I was about to spend $180 but managed to test it on skin in-store. It smells like wood with lots of sugar and soaked in cat urine. A horrible aroma I don’t understand how Cartier dared to create. Don’t buy it blindly.

I wore this powerhouse and a girl more than a meter away shouted ‘it smells like a medieval market.’ I asked if it was me and she confirmed. At first, it felt offensive, but by night I understood a medieval market doesn’t smell bad, just strong. The smokiness is potent, reminiscent of incense in those places, and I love it. It lasts forever and comes in bursts; when you think it’s gone, another wave hits and reminds you of the wonder you’re wearing. To those who say it smells like cat urine, I don’t get it; maybe it’s the caramel mixed with violet. Try it several times before buying; if you like it, it’s a gem.
It smells like peeing, literally, like a shopping mall bathroom that hasn’t been cleaned in hours. Total horror.
I’ve given it many chances and nothing, it just rejects me. As many say, it smells like pee, that typical disco bathroom smell with intense urine. I don’t notice any declared notes. If it weren’t for others saying the same, I’d think the bottle was defective.
Very rare. The ‘smoke’ note smells like dry smoke, nothing smoky. On paper, it was very strong and unbalanced, overpowering everything at the start. Only at the end do I notice the violet and citrus. It’s bold and unique, but very hard to wear. It seems like a contemporary sweet covered in smoke to distort it artistically.
One of the most challenging scents I’ve tried. I thought it was niche, but it isn’t. You have to give it time; the opening is pure smoke that makes you recoil, then the caramel softens it a bit but the chaos remains. At 2-3 hours, it’s in its splendor: burnt wood, lily root, tonka bean, and a boozy touch. Best-in-class performance, style 90, well above average. Only for noses with olfactory baggage and strong personality. Thanks Cartier for daring to break the mold without losing elegance.
One of the most challenging fragrances I’ve tried in recent times. When I first smelled it, I thought it was niche, but it’s not. You have to give Noire Absolu time; apply it and let its slow dry-down reveal its charm. In the opening, the smoke is the protagonist and makes you take a step back; then the caramel softens it a bit, but the chaos hasn’t disappeared. After 2 to 3 hours, it’s in its splendor, with a very striking result that emulates burnt wood, iris root, tonka, and a slight alcoholic accord. Performance is well above the average for commercial fragrances in this segment, a total beast mode, very much in the style of 90s perfumery. Only for noses with olfactory baggage and a lot of personality. Thanks Cartier for daring, for breaking molds, and, above all, for remaining elegant.
It smells terrible, heavy, and suffocating. The Ted Lapidus Black Extreme smells 100 times better. It smells like urine mixed with smoke, old woods, heavy spices, and something like spoiled must with a violet undertone. It lasts longer than a day without bread, and since it’s Cartier, it’s not cheap. Don’t buy it blindly or you’ll have to throw it away. They tried to make an oriental experiment based on the classic Pasha and failed miserably. A total mess. The worst Pasha ever, with all the flaws.
I’m here to do this perfume justice. To be honest: yes, the opening is ‘weird,’ very strong, and can be jarring. But its magic lies in the dry-down; once it settles, you get that high-quality ultra-niche smoked caramel. Its longevity is astronomical; on my skin, it lasted over 12 hours on my wrist.
I’m here to defend it. It’s true the opening is weird and strong, but the magic is in the dry-down: ultra-niche quality smoky caramel notes. The longevity is abyssal, lasting over 12 hours on skin on the wrist.
I liked it for being dark and bold, exactly what I look for in a designer scent. But the opening is an overpowering black smoke that’s genuinely scary. After hours, it fades into a milky caramel that doesn’t work for me; it smells like stale dessert. I’m sorry I didn’t connect, even though my wallet appreciates it. Its reputation as a ‘monster’ comes from the general public finding it extreme, while I, being saturated with niche fragrances, discard it for being cloying. It would have been better if they kept the smoke or changed the base. Ultimately, it’s rare for the designer crowd, common for niche lovers, and expensive for the average person. The only good thing is it smells exactly like its olfactory pyramid claims.
