Is So Pretty by Cartier still in production?+−
This fragrance is widely considered discontinued and can be difficult to find through primary retailers. It is mostly sought after by collectors on the secondary market.
How does the "Chypre" classification affect the smell?+−
The chypre classification means that while you will smell plenty of flowers and fruit, the scent is grounded by oakmoss, vetiver, and bergamot. This gives it a mossy, slightly bitter, and woody finish rather than a creamy or sugary one.
Is this a good choice for a summer day?+−
While it contains citrus and florals, So Pretty is quite dense and structured. It is most popular for spring and fall, particularly for evening events or nights out, as the oakmoss and sandalwood can feel heavy in high heat.
Is it more floral or more fruity?+−
It is a balanced blend, but the floral and woody elements eventually overtake the fruit. The blackberry and peach are prominent in the opening, but the iris, rose, and oakmoss define the long-term character of the fragrance.
