What does Pure Vetiver smell like?
Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear and business come up most often as the occasions for it. Few choose it for night or evening.
The top has cardamom, grapefruit, ginger and pepper, so it opens spicy and bright. In the heart, mugwort, lavender and marine notes keep it green and clean. Vetiver leads the base, giving it an earthy, woody footing. Hermès Terre d'Hermès and L'Artisan Parfumeur Vétiver Écarlate have a close profile.
