Roadster by Cartier, released in 2008 and composed by Mathilde Laurent, is a woody masculine scent with a cool mint twist. Everyone describes it as woody, and about half also note sweet, aromatic, amber and citrus facets.

The notes are listed without stages, but the character is clear. Mint and bergamot open with a crisp, cooling and citrus-bright freshness, unusual and distinctive in a men's scent. As it settles, patchouli and vetiver give an earthy, dark and slightly smoky woodiness. The drydown is warmer, with vanilla adding a soft sweetness and labdanum a balsamic, ambery resin that keeps the mint from feeling cold.

People report long-lasting wear and a moderate trail. It is voted mostly for spring and autumn and mainly for daytime, which suits the office, everyday wear and smart-casual outings. It fits someone who likes woody scents with a clean, minty lift and a soft, warm base.
