Oh, patents! Cartier Santos perfume

Copyright © Françoise Herrmann

The atomizer bottle for the Cartier Santos perfume, for men, is a patented invention. The US design patent, USD769722S1, titled Perfume bottle, was awarded to the Cartier designer, Irem Oymak, on October 25, 2016.

The Cartier Santos perfume for men coordinates with the 1904 Cartier Santos watch, designed by Louis Cartier, grandson of Louis-François Cartier, founder of the House of Cartier in 1847. The Santos watch was the first men’s watch that Cartier created. The eponymous Santos watch was named after the famous Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont, who complained to his Cartier friends that pocket watches were impractical for telling time mid-flight. Thus, Cartier designed the Santos wristwatch, which also revolutionized watchmaking, because it was square, with signature exposed screws.

The Cartier Santos perfume was created by the Master perfumer Daniel Moliere. The complex fragrance includes the scents of Lavender, Juniper Berries, Basil, Lemon Verbena, Bergamot, Galbanum and Neroli; Pepper, Nutmeg, Vetiver, Geranium, Rosemary, Clary Sage and Cloves; Sandalwood, Amber, Coconut, Patchouli, Vanilla and Cedar.
