🌿 The Legend of Vétiver
Few fragrances can claim the status of legend. Since its creation in 1959, Vétiver by Guerlain has defined masculine elegance, a timeless reference for generations of men. In its 2000 reformulation, Jean-Paul Guerlain preserved the essence of that heritage: clarity, depth, and unmistakable sophistication.
The formula reveals the architecture of a classic:
- Pure Haitian vetiver (vetiverol, vetiver oil) as the backbone — earthy, smoky, and elegant.
- Citrus brightness from orange, lemon, lime, and mandarin, lending freshness and energy.
- Aromatic nuances of nutmeg, clary sage, and pepper, adding complexity.
- Woody-musky depth from Vertofix, amyris, cedar, guaiacwood, and musk ketone, ensuring persistence.
The result is the archetype of the woody-aromatic masculine: refined, virile, and eternal. Guerlain’s Vétiver is not just a perfume — it is a rite of passage.
