Vetyver (2015)

It lasts well and projects at a moderate level, so it stays close without crowding anyone. Most voters pick spring and summer, with fall not far behind and few choosing winter. Leisure, business and daytime wear lead the occasions, and it mostly reads as masculine and classic.

It opens with bergamot, Italian mandarin orange, coriander and nutmeg: bright citrus with a light spice. In the heart, vervain, tarragon, petitgrain, clary sage and lavender add an aromatic, green character. Vetiver carries the earthy, woody base, softened by sandalwood, tonka bean and musk. Creed Original Vetiver and Givenchy Vetyver have a close profile.
