Vetiverissimo Fzotic / Bruno Fazzolari 2018

Nutty earthy wood. Opens with a rich and oily nuttiness soon joined by a subtle, root vegetable earthiness—ever so slightly sweet and powdery. Becomes increasingly fresh and somewhat soapy on my skin, with a faint grassiness in the far background. Ends with buttery blond woods, still both dry and fresh, and richer resins. A deftly composed, seemingly effortless balance of savory, sweet, and fresh notes. Incredibly easy to wear, it draws you in over and over as it evolves. Stays lovely and in tune with my skin into the dry down; so soothing and introspective. Amongst my very favorite Vetivers.

Smoother, and less sweet than Fat Electrician. Less rooty and earthy than most popular Vetivers (e.g. Encre Noire, Sycomore), sans citrus (e.g. Terre d’Hermes, Grey Vetiver) but still nuanced and interesting.
