Root freshness from the niche
I've just tested a fragrance that I didn't even suspect existed. Such a small sample of 2 ml, which has it however in the wahrsten sense of the word in itself.
And the content is modern art in a class of its own.
Around three-dimensional "change-Vetyver", which smells wonderfully from all sides. Once the fresh-peppery is on top, once the earthy-rooted, then a bit fruity - slightly bitter musk seems to creep in.
I can turn it around and turn it around any way I want, the good is always in front.
And so slightly surrealistic is "Vetiver Réunion". A plastic appearing picture with depth.
Once in tetrahedron shape, angular, turning in all directions, sometimes triangle in front and tip in the back, sometimes vice versa. Especially when the "root" comes to the fore most.
Then in the form of a sphere that lies in the shade, sometimes more, sometimes less, revolves around itself and accentuates the small irregularities on its surface. All drawn or painted, as impressive as a hologram.
And it is a kind of "niche scent" that makes the "impossible" possible without smelling "impossible"...
He's on my watch list!!!

Roots up to sky blue
Vetiver Reunion starts with me very woody, and completely dry the Vetiver grows towards me from the earth. Shortly afterwards the typical Vetiver cool green scent unfolds. Becomes spicy quickly. Peppery, a little bitter. The grapefruit does not appear at all as a fruit, but as a light, also bitter shade. The scent itself: light, becomes steadily brighter even.

This fragrance does from the beginning what captures me, AugustA, at Vetiver so, why I am still looking for the right Vetiver for me again and again: It grows from under the ground directly into the blue sky!

Then, after about half an hour, the scent becomes a little flowery and further facets are added with a precise smell: light mildew, bitter bitterness, even some algae.
But also some nice nutiness, the famous hazelnut of the Reunion Vetiver? Well, I hope I didn't confuse that now. The first time, however, that I perceive this without having added any (fruit or gourmand) sweetness.

I find this vetiver scent thoroughly modern, liberated from all gentlemanly behaviour, the vetiver - for which it can do nothing - for historical reasons sometimes carries with it.
The airy side of this grass, the freshness, almost ethereal, the lightness and freshness that cool water has, all that and more. A great fragrance that manages to refresh the vetiver tradition imperceptibly but significantly.
The fragrance shines for me in changing bottle green tones and after about three hours even a light creaminess is added.

I can't really hear Urban anymore, since it has become a constantly and everywhere used synonym for modern, hip and trendy, i.e. anti-traditionalistic. But this one is. Period. Nix barbershop, suit or any kind of design item.

From the root to the sky.
