What does Vetiver & Rum (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

The top notes bring lime, orange blossom, rum and Haitian vetiver, so the first spray is bright citrus warmed by a sweetish rum note. In the heart, lavender, black pepper, clove and nutmeg add a spicy edge, softened by jasmine and mimosa. The base settles into Indonesian patchouli, vetiver and oakmoss, earthy and woody.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the number of votes is small. With its fresh, spicy build it reads clearly masculine. Tom Ford Grey Vetiver Parfum and Creed Viking have a close profile.
