Vetyverio Diptyque 2017 Eau de Parfum

By the editors · 2 min readHaitian vetiver opens raw and rooty, splitting the difference between damp earth and bright grapefruit zest. The citrus flash is brief; within minutes the vetiver’s dry grass and mineral facets take over, while a quiet rose adds a faint pink blur that softens the edges without turning floral. Mid-development keeps the vetiver center-stage but lets its smoke and hazelnut aspects emerge, creating a cool-green haze that feels like crushed stems on stone. Dry-down stays linear, a clean woody hum that lingers close to skin, projecting an arm’s-length radius for roughly six hours. Cooler spring and early-fall days, office-safe or weekend denim, thrive on its crisp, unsweet restraint.
