Vetiver

Vetiver is a rich, earthy, and woody note known for its grounding and complex aroma. It has deep, smoky, and slightly green undertones with hints of dry wood and earth. This sophisticated note is often used as a base in perfumery, adding warmth, depth, and longevity to compositions. Vetiver’s distinctive scent pairs well with florals, citruses, and spices, creating a balanced, refined finish that adds a sense of luxury and timeless elegance to both feminine and masculine fragrances.

History & Production: Vetiver, derived from the roots of the Chrysopogon zizanioides plant, has been cultivated for centuries in tropical regions like India, Haiti, Indonesia, and Réunion. The roots are harvested, cleaned, and dried before undergoing steam distillation to produce the essential oil, known for its deep, smoky, and woody scent. The labor-intensive process and the plant’s resilience contribute to the high value of vetiver oil. Revered for its aromatic qualities, vetiver has been used in traditional medicine and rituals for centuries and continues to be an essential ingredient in high-end perfumes, cherished for its ability to add depth and complexity.
