What does Vetiver Moderno smell like?

Pink grapefruit, bergamot and rhubarb open sharp and bright, with nutmeg adding a little spice. In the heart, lily of the valley, rose, lavender and jasmine bring a soft floral layer. Vetiver, cedar and patchouli dominate the base, leaving a woody, powdery and faintly smoky finish.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, office and leisure lead the occasions. Being unisex, it sits comfortably on men and women alike. Acqua di Parma Colonia Essenza and Floris Vetiver have a close profile.
