Vétiver Santal

Fresh · Citrus · Green
Marie Jeanne Vétiver Santal is a unisex scent that pairs bright citrus with a green, woody and faintly earthy backbone.
It opens with bergamot, petitgrain and lemon, sharp and fresh. At the centre, New Caledonian sandalwood, cypress and Haitian vetiver pull it towards a dry, green woodiness. White musk, Siam benzoin and Indonesian patchouli close it with a creamy, resinous softness.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close without crowding the room. Most voters pick fall and spring, and daily wear, leisure and the office are the top occasions. It leans masculine, though a good share of voters find it feminine. Etro Mahogany and Thymes Bergamot Vert have a close profile.
