Cœur de Vétiver Sacré

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close to the skin without crowding a room. Most voters suggest fall and spring, with summer not far behind. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the most named settings, and masculine and feminine votes run close.

It opens with bergamot and black tea, sweetened by date and dried fruits. Saffron, pink pepper and ginger add spicy warmth in the heart. Vetiver leads the base, wrapped in smoky, resinous softness from frankincense, vanilla and musk.
