2023 VETIVER

The earthy depth here is so well-balanced against that bright, almost cool metallic edge—it feels like smelling vetiver for the first time. The floral transparency shows up just enough to keep things from getting heavy, but the bitterness really lingers. I've worn it for three days straight now.

That metallic sharpness on top of the vetiver root is so unusual—it makes the earthy part feel almost electric, and the soft floral note keeps it from being too heavy. I've worn it three days straight and keep catching new layers each time.

The earthy depth is exactly what I hoped for—it grounds the whole scent, but that soft floral transparency keeps it from feeling heavy. Lasts surprisingly well on skin without turning cloying, which is rare for something this complex.
