It smells great to me
A little to floral
I did not enjoy this scent. Neither does my girlfriend. Nor my parents. Not one compliment!
This is such a weird strong smell not for me
Love the spicy smell
I’ve sprayed the bottle and have to say this smells a little different for some odd reason. Almost like neosporin ointment? Nice light fragrance but very neospirin chic. Like hey I have some mosquito bites, but want to go eat dinner too.
Not a good smell at all. Smells like body odor.
This fragrance is not for me
Nice spicy smell !!!
Subtle but Nice a scent! Sweet and with floral tones (not sure a great description for a men fragrance, lol) it gets better after a few minutes on you.
Smells like a woman's fragrance.
I had this scent before love its sweet honey aroma ,when it settles on my skin. My wife loves this scent on me. This is a perfect scent for the spring and summer. But could also be warn in the winter and the fall .
Don't like the smell
I use Scentbox as a way of trying out fragrances before contemplating purchasing a bottle. I will be buying a bottle of Declaration in the near future. The scent reminds me of Terre d'Hermes without the stringent opening. I am drawn by the cardamom and juniper, which to my nose, gives the cologne a lighter touch which is perfect for the Spring/Summer. In my opinion this is best suited for office/casual and more for men 35 and older. It has about 5-6 hours longevity on my skin.
A little to woody for me but decent scent overall
Floral light scent. Kinda Smokey.
Love this scent... My lady loves it even more!!
My niece likes it, seems to last a long time as well.
Love this scent my old lady loves it even more
Little powdery than prefer. But it is not a bad scent.
To strong for me, but I'll see how it is when it disipates
It's a very pleasant scent, not quite amazing to me but nice and with good longevity.
Not at the top of my list but a nice fragrance
Oh yeah its a good one ??????
Smelt feminine to me and didnt last long.
smelled like a church lady so I gave it to my mom. way to feminine for my style
Great scent
Amazing scent
It’s not a favorite but it is good for a day scent.
Kindof smells like a modern CK1
This is a very clean, citrus and fresh smelling fragrance. Perfect for daytime use.
didn’t like it
Peppery at first but wears of almost smells kinda like Pachuli. But that could be a mix of the pepper and coriander and Ginger smells good after it wears off a bit it depends on your body chemistry but I like it
Unique and classy. Not what I'd call a "masculine" scent but it's very fresh and feels elite. Doesn't last quite as long as I'd like but it's very pleasant and not overbearing
Unique fragrance, love the fresh spice that’s added has a unique smell that screams Cartier.
I love it....plain and simple ????
Not for me. Smells pretty gross
Does not go well with me, need to return it
Not very strong, doesn’t last long.
smells like a cheap gross soap
My least favorite so far. The only thing I get is baby powder which is not my thing.
Nice but not great
Wears longer than any ive tried yet
Great scent !!!!
This fragrance has a clean smell about it.
Love love love it!!!!!
Has more of a baby powder smell like perfume
The scent is ok. Felt it was to soft almost like a perfume scent. Not musky enough very citrusy.
Pleasant unique smell.
disappointed not long lasting and scent wasn't to popular
Alot of compliments
Great
Ehhhh not musky and manly enough for my taste.
Gross
I was disappointed in this fragrance. I would have to say that for me what I look for in any frangance is longevity. A strong scent 4 sprays at best to fill the room when you walk in . By. 1600 I should still smell the frangance on my wrist and clothes
This is for girls, but i wouldn't recommend it to one. It's like cheap perfume that 12 year old girls would spray on themselves while giving each other make overs at a slumberparty. It's starts off like the body soap and skin prodcuts that grocery stores carry now, the kind that have really cool packaging, and are "All Natural" or "Organic" and they have this weird old lotion mixed with unscented Dial soap smell that is actually very off-putting, and you're disappointed because the packaging looked so good and it would look perfect in your shower or your bathroom sink.. So take that smell, add some flowery and citrusy notes that do not blend together into a pleasing smell, and you have Cartier Declaration. It smells almost exactly like Burberry Weekend for Him. I got a bottle of Burberry Weekend for men from a secondhand store(Ross, Marshalls, or SteinMart) for like $10-$15 15 years ago. After opening it I thought that the reason for it being there was because they put a women's fragrance in a men's bottle, but that wasn't the case. I tried so hard to like it because Burberry was very popular and high end at the time, but it found it feminine and unpleasant. Cartier Declaration smells exactly the same as Burberry Weekend for him. These are some of the colognes I loved throughout my 35 years: Hugo Boss(the bottle that was shaped like a canteen, with the lid attached by strap, light blue liquid), Abercrombie Fierce, Clinique Happy for Men, Tommy, Ralph Lauren Safari, Polo Blue, and Aqua Di Gio. Over the past 3 years I've bought and enjoyed wearing Kenzo Homme Wood, The Art of Shave Sandalwood and Cypress, Gucci Guilty Black, and Aqua Di Gio Absolute Instinct. Thought maybe knowing what I like might help.
Once received this as a Birchbox sample. Fell in love with it ever since.
Nice
Smells like a car tree smell. It's nothing appealing to the senses.
smells like a old person but smells ok.
Very clean, nice smelling scent!! Very easy to smell all the different notes it includes. Just wish it lasted a little longer.
Wasn’t pleased. A little too strong for me.
Really nice scent but not my all-time favorite
smells like a mature woman
This is my every Thursday scent !!!! Love it and so do the people I see early morning and afternoon.
I enjoy the upbeat lively fruity freshness of this scent but it doesn't last. You will find yourself reapplying a couple times a day.
DECLARATION Cartier smells amazing once it settles down on the skin......The only issue I have with this scent is that it really doesn't last!!! Anyone here rating this scent 5 stars for it's amazing smell are 100% correct, and anyone rating this scent less then 5 stars for the lack of it's longevity is a billion percent correct!!!! There's nothing that erks me more, than when you find an amazing scent and it fades in a matter of 3 hours or less......wtf! :(
I like the smell, little peppery
Not my favorite scent. Don't think I would buy this or order this scent ever again
Smells amazing
A lil overpowering at first but it dies down nicely to a clean smell, it just doesn’t last very long just an hour or two
Scent received compliments
I can wear it or not. My girl likes it and that’s what’s important.
If you like to smell like grass go ahead and get it no my flavor??????
I like it
I didnt like it.
Didnt like the smell has a strong citrus scent
Not bad.......feels like im a walking lime tree lol Its citrus scented
To scent to soft
Warrent I love the fragrance, I'm hoping to choose a couple favorite b4 I order. But 4 sure o will be ordering full notes Thanks I love smelling good all day long
This is the sexiest scent I've ever worn. People follow me to ask what it is, it suits me beautifully.
Great Perfume that gives me a lot more self confidence
This Cologne is quite nice, I think I will finally land the lady I have been eyeing in the office, she said I smell like nice sweet flowers!!!!
I like this - sort of a cross between Bvlgari pour homme and Dolce & Gabanna. If you like minimalist, woody scents, give it a whirl.
this is what's happening.a bit subtle very nice smoky, woody scent. romantic though not an everyday casual scent.
But then my nose became sensitive to the tobacco. It became the most overbearing note and I do not like smelling like tobacco. Apparently, everyone around me agreed.
Very elegant fragrance that attracts good compliments. Good for office, clubbing and romance. For me is the best Cartier fragrance.
This cologne rocks!! I like how it's smoky, and so different than most others. It's also got a nice price tag to it too.
master but i believe the birch turns me off from this stuff. not that it's heavy or 2 masculine maybe it's my skin type. definately cold weather stuff but not my type. if you like smoky,woody scents give it a try.
i appreciate Cartier, and this cologne, I always remembered it since the first time I tried it, as well as Santos. Some say Pascha is the best for men, Who Knows?
Was waiting at grocery store line, and smelled this intoxicating cologne, a guy was wearing. Asked him the name. Beautiful, and sweet, and screams $$$$. Love it.
I was given this sample in at the counter of a perfume store. I love the smokiness, and the sweetness- I thought it was for women! Most perfumes smell really cloying on me but with this one I can smell the "fragrance" when I wear it. It seems most perfumes smell good on my clothes but not on my skin- but this one smells good on. I must ask someone their opinion before I purchase it for myself though. I dont want to go around smelling like I'm wearing a masculine cologne.
I loved this scent so much I bought it for myself even though it's considered a man's cologne. Every time I wear it I get compliments, more than the women's perfume I wear. I guess to get a guy's attention, women need to wear a man's cologne. Worked for me!
I love this cologne. On me it smells amazing like it was made specifically for me. I m lucky to have such a scent.Platinum

Declaration is so amazing. I cant describe how it makes me feel. It smells sweet smoky and clean all at once . i will forever wear delaration
A highly sensual and elegant fragrance from one of the undisputed emperors of mens' colognes. Fellas, Armani, K. Cole, Dunhill and Chanel aren't the only ones out there.
WOW!! I just bought this today and I am really proud of purchasing it. It is one of the most balanced, elegant and pleasant colognes I ever bought. Altough a little pricey, it is really worth it. Nice job Cartier.
When I first smelled this one, I thought it was gonna be yet another aqua-marine-plahplah type of scent, but I was definetly caught by a suprise. This is suprisingly sensual scent, and though its quite sweet, its not even close for being cloying. Very heavy cardamom note, as well oregano...It smells so wonderfully mediterian, that you can invest your money for this instead the expensive trip. And yes, it lasts well also.
Declaration is one of my favourites for man but try Esencia by Loewe, it is hard to find around here but is like no other, believe me. I give Declaration 5 stars but I will give TEN to Esencia if I could. (Sorry about my english I´m from Spain) Thanks!!!
I love this scent. It's very different and definitely ground-breaking, just like Santos ... the bottle is absolutely lovely and cleverly designed. Not, like someone said, for Polo or Cool Water types ... no thanks. I like putting the bottle on my own perfume tray I like it so much.
outstanding, this one will make you feel like a millionare . long lasting luxurios
I think Declaration Essence(the blue bottle), is one of the best colognes ever. MAybe because it is more concentrated, it has more of the smoky character and I thought it was more masculine than the standard Declaration. It still reminds me of Bulgari "Green Tea", but the smoky thing adds a lot to the scent. Also, it smells very classy and is long lasting. The kind of fragrance you capture in the air when someone is using. A bit expensive though, but I think it is worth it.
I bought this cologne about a year ago, and for some reason never new it was a mens cologne. I loved it because it is not too strong and not too sweet. I have been wearing it and I always get compiments. I have just recently realized that it is a mens fragrance. I smelled it on my boyfriend and it still smelled great on him too! I love it, this is definitley my signature scent!
ive never had anything more unique and outstanding than declaration. this one is so very classy that is perfect for some formal meetings etc. great stuff!!
Too strong and kinda sweet.. gave me a headache.. smells like womens perfume
A fascinating combination that you wouldn't think would work. Even while you're basking in the scent, smelling the orange and cedar you're thinking, "Citrus and smokey woods? How can that work? That just can't work." And yet it does. It's too bad Cartier didn't come out with Declaration in 1978 rather than 1998; it would have been a really excellent cologne. As it is however, it has one of the major defects of its era, while avoiding the other two. While it's not light or synthetic, it really isn't very masculine, either -- like pretty much every thing on the shelves these days. Smells more like a woman’s perfume than a man’s cologne. By the standards of its time, it's a cut above almost all of its competition. It's only that that isn't saying very much anymore. Declaration is a textbook example of why I don’t care for most of the men’s fragrances of the past fifteen years. Even when they’re good, they’re not very good.
I thought Declaration was very similar to Bulgari Eau Perfumee Extreme. A sweet, very classy scent, never overpowering. I liked Bulgari Eau Perfumee Extreme very much, but thought it was too much on the feminine side. For this reason I liked Declaration better, since it seemed more masculine. This scent is very, very classy and it leaves a delicious aura around who is using it. It is as expensive as Eau Perfumee Extreme, but it must be because of the high quality ingredients. It is delicious!
All I can say is this is the most unique cologne I've ever smelt. I can't really describe the smell of it, it just smells really nice.
When I first tried it at the airport in Switzerland four other guys were impressed and each bought a bottle of it. It is a delight to wear, and does not twist your nose, if you know what I mean.
For me, it has to be a unique scent and i do not have to guess that i found it in this fragrance.
One of the best among my 30+ collection.
an excellent fragrance. It has woodsy, smokey, clean, and classy notes that are completely original. I'd say this one is best for daytime use but the woodsy dry down is incredibly classy and unique - enjoyable to smell. almost smells dirty in a good way... I suppose you can wear it formally but, one of the very few casual fragrances that are truly enjoyable to wear.
drop dead bad floral womanly
delicious!
A perfect blend of citrus and spicy notes.
Every woman I know love this fragrance. It's beautiful. One of the best fragrances ever and it lasts firever on me (more then 10h)
I fell in love with this cologne..and trust me, I have a nose for scents..this is definately one of the best ones out there...(versace dreamer..really good too)
My husband and I must like really strong fragrances, because we think this one does not last. My husband wears it liberally (went through a large bottle in less than 2 months) and we both enjoy the spiciness of it. In half an hour the scent has vanished, though. We now buy the Declaration Essence in the blue ombre bottle. Much stronger, but very similar. Delicious!
I first bought this from the Ladies counter at Nordstrom and was told by the saleswoman that it is "officially" a male fragrance, but is purchased and widely used by women. I've worn it for about 3 years now and I always get lots of compliments. Be warned though - a little dab'll do ya! It has some citrus on top and birch, cedar and oakmoss in the middle and bottom. Test it first, but I really think you'll enjoy this one!
I bought this stuff from the womans fragrance counter and I really like it because it's so different.I'm wondering why they sold it as a womans scent when I keep seeing that it's for men! Is it a unisex fragrance, or should I give it to my husband?
