By the editors · 2 min readVetiver opens with a dry, earthy character that carries a subtle rooty and smoky undertone from the start. Leather and sandalwood join quickly, adding a supple, creamy texture that wraps around the vetiver's sharp edges. The heart maintains a linear structure where these elements blend into a unified woody and leather accord without significant evolution. Amber in the base provides a faint resinous sweetness that softens the overall dryness without becoming prominent. Projection stays intimate, hovering close to the skin after the initial fifteen minutes of wear. This is a straightforward scent for casual daytime use in temperate climates.
