What does Vétiver smell like?
Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays close rather than leaving a heavy trail. Most voters point to leisure, daytime and office wear, while evening and night-out use sit further back. It doesn't read clearly masculine or feminine.
Pink pepper, grapefruit and blood orange give a bright, slightly spicy opening. In the heart, lavender, violet and amber add a soft, powdery touch. The base is led by Java and Haitian vetiver, with moss and tobacco adding a woody, smoky depth. Heeley Vetiver Veritas and Perris Monte Carlo Vetiver Java have a close profile.
