What does Royal Vetiver smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate. Voters lean towards spring and fall, and place it mostly in leisure and business settings. Most see it as masculine or classic in character, though it stays unisex.

The top has cypress, rhubarb and grapefruit, giving a fresh, lightly fruity, citrus start. In the heart, vetiver and cedarwood build a woody, earthy backbone. The base of amber, ambrette and oud adds a resinous, spicy warmth.
