With Elegant Vetiver, I genuinely had the feeling from the very first moment: This suits me.
I really like the opening. The pistachio gives the fragrance something special without becoming too gourmand or too sweet. Then there is the juniper, which adds a lovely spiciness and quickly steers the fragrance in a drier, woodier direction.
Elegant Vetiver is often described by others as green. On my skin, I actually perceive it as somewhat less so. Of course, there is that characteristic vetiver freshness, but to me, the spice and woods are much more prominent. The vetiver is present, but never harsh or earthy. By the time the cashmeran appears in the base, everything becomes wonderfully soft and rounded.
It is unobtrusive enough for the office, but still has enough individuality not to smell like just any generic office fragrance. I can just as easily wear it in the evening to dinner with friends.
For me, a truly strong daily fragrance - spicy, woody, soft, and with exactly that little something special that sets it apart from the crowd.
