What does Classic Vétiver smell like?

It opens with fresh, sharp citrus. Pepper, elemi resin and geranium then form a spicy, resinous and slightly floral middle. The base of vetiver, patchouli and cedar turns earthy, woody and green.

Longevity is good and sillage moderate, so it stays close without fading quickly. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and the office come up most often. Many voters call it classic and masculine, though it is presented as unisex. Mazzolari Herion and Hermès Terre d'Hermès (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
