An almost tangy surge of pepper immediately provides reinvigorating freshness, and a immediate feel of masculinity. The vetiver reveals itself, powerful and raw, in a criss-cross of roots and vegetation made up of mastic, turmeric and violet leaf.
Launched in 1968, Vetyver was presented as “male flowers, muscular and musky (...), a fresh, dry and racy fragrance”. This woody score was revisited in 2021 in the interest of sustainable development by Nicolas Beaulieu, who recomposed it while picturing an ethical kind of masculinity, returning to the soil.

« Vetyver oscillates between put-together and raw. Of course; this work puts vetiver on a pedestal, but its roots are reinforced by a basis of turmeric and mastic. I have added a green violet leaf accord and a black pepper hook, which is very present when you spray it. »
