Vetiver
Vetiver by Guerlain is all about dry woods and refined, earthy depth. Bergamot, lemon and neroli in the opening; vetiver, pepper and tobacco at the heart; tonka bean and cedar in the base. With medium sillage and 7–9 h longevity, it shines best during the day and in spring. Understated with attitude: refined, never loud.
