Vetiver Root Korres 2010

"Ravioli - Porcini - Truffle" ... This is how the mostly simply designed menus read nowadays in restaurants of the "Haute Cuisine" category. Korres handles it similarly and surely captures the spirit of the times ... as well as my curiosity. However, one does not find out what filling the ravioli contains or how the sauce is prepared. Thus, VGC (for short) also has a lot of other ingredients that unfold in my nose into an olfactory fast-food meal. Everything is "organic," of course, as the Greek company claims to avoid various chemicals that might be used elsewhere (which I cannot really judge). But it is also well-received in today's time, the green trend.

One can certainly like the slightly sweet and subtly creamy VGC, especially since it leans towards YSL L'Homme. However, the fragrance should be renamed, as neither green tea nor vetiver come through distinctly here. VGC is definitely an affordable and well-made fragrance, but somehow misses the stated theme and is more unisex than masculine for me.
