What does Grey Vetiver (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters recommend spring and summer, with fall a close third and winter chosen less often. It leans towards business and daily wear, and fewer pick it for evenings or nights out. Nearly half of voters read it as masculine, and a fair share call it classic.

Grapefruit, sage and orange blossom lead the top, with woods alongside them. In the heart, pimento, nutmeg and iris add a spicy, slightly powdery softness. In the base, vetiver, amberwood and oakmoss dry down into a green, woody, earthy finish.
