Descent masculine scent
This scent wasn't instant love, but it grew on me. Now, several years after I purchased it, and having sampled other perfumes (both niche and designer, hyped and sleepers), I can honestly say that VC is one of the best truly masculine scent (if you believe in there being such a thing in perfumery), a signature-worthy perfume.
It is green and mossy, almost linear with perhaps only one noticeable change within the first hour (as the initial citrusy accord dies out giving room to the mossy and patchouli-based background). It's not a compliment magnet, it's neither playful nor romantic, not something you'd choose for a night out in a club or a bar-type situation. In other words, it's not universally likable, unlike the Elysiums, Bleu de Chanels, Laytons of this world (all of which I beautiful, by the way, and I really enjoy wearing all of them), but it IS an all-year-round, universally applicable scent, and could be a signature-scent worthy addition to your collection.
The thing that distinguishes this perfume from a bunch of others for me is that it has a backbone, its own voice, character, a footprint, if you will. To my nose, it's similar to Brutus by Orto Parisi but smoother and is actually wearable, unlike Orto's eccentric olfactory experiment. It is blended very well, and what you get a couple of hours into spraying is just a deep green, a bit rough and heavy, but uncompromisingly straightforward razor-focused scent of inner calm, experienced-backed self-awareness, willpower and perseverance (sounds corny and mawkish, but it is these associations that come to mind when I wear it). There are other perfumes that have a similar feel to my nose (not similar in scent, but in their overall olfactory message): FM Vetiver Extraordinaire, Roja's Apex, Chanel's Sycamore, among others. If you're looking for a "no-chuckles" green and earthy scent that's a bit rough but uncompromisingly "masculine," do try this one (sample first before buying), you may find it strangely appealing, if not to others than at least to yourself.
