LEATHER GOODS SAVOIR-FAIRE

Cartier approaches leather goods with the eye and precision of a jeweller. Quality materials, precise movements, accurate designs: from the cutting to the preparation of the skins and the assembly of the leather goods, these Cartier creations require the utmost care. Clasps and chains use techniques borrowed from the jewellery workshops. Just like their jewels, this attention and care infuse the creations with Cartier's signature soul and precision.

PERFUMES SAVOIR-FAIRE

Mathilde Laurent, Cartier perfumer since 2005, designs perfumes for Cartier that are worn as invisible jewellery pieces. Indeed, her remarkable mastery of the art of perfumery and its history allows her to explore the wealth of stylistic territories that Cartier occupies.
Part of what makes her unique is that she draws her inspiration from a variety of sources with a conscious decision to use natural ingredients, as well as synthetic molecules, in her compositions. Through her creations, Mathilde Laurent gives rise to new sensations, creating real olfactory surprises.
