What does Vetivera smell like?

It opens with a bright Italian bergamot. In the heart, Madagascar pepper and Haitian vetiver take over, giving it a spicy, earthy and green feel. American cedar carries the woody line into the base.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage moderate. Voters choose it most for leisure and nights out, with business and daily wear close behind. It reads as a calm, gender-neutral vetiver. Its profile is close to Pure Presence Vetiver Absolute and Comme des Garçons Series 4: Cologne - Vettiveru.
