Spezierie Palazzo Vecchio Fresco di Vetiver Eau de Parfum is a fresh, masculine fougère that ties the brightness of juniper, bergamot and mint to the earthy woodiness of Haitian vetiver and Mysore sandalwood.

What does Fresco di Vetiver (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Most voters pick spring, summer and fall, and few choose winter. Leisure, daily wear and the office lead the occasions. Penhaligon's Douro Eau de Portugal and Etro New Tradition have a close profile.

It opens with the citrusy, green freshness of juniper, mint, lemon and bergamot. In the heart, orange blossom, rose and violet add a soft floral note with a powdery edge. The base of vetiver, sandalwood, labdanum and ambergris dries down on an earthy, spicy, woody footing.
