What does Vetiver smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated as good, though the small number of votes means these ratings are only a rough guide. The scent reads as neutral, sitting comfortably on either men or women.

It starts with the citrus of bergamot alongside the earthy green of vetiver. In the heart, patchouli and cypress build a woody, smoky ground. The base of oud, saffron, musk and sandalwood carries it into a resinous, spicy and powdery warmth, with aquatic and floral touches staying in the background.
