Original Vetiver

Its longevity and sillage are moderate: it neither clings to the skin nor fills a room. Most voters pick spring and summer, while few choose winter. Daily wear, leisure and business come up most often, and most voters read it as masculine, with classic next.

It opens with bitter orange, bergamot and mandarin orange for a bright citrus edge, while vetiver leaf lays a green ground. Coriander, white pepper and pink pepper add spice in the heart. In the base, vetiver forms an earthy, woody backbone, softened by musk, ambergris and sandalwood.
