Vetiver
Vetiver presents a complex olfactory profile, primarily characterized by its deep, earthy, and rooty aroma. It often carries nuances of damp soil, freshly cut grass, and sometimes a distinct smoky or leathery facet. Depending on its origin and processing, it can also exhibit subtle hints of grapefruit-like citrus, nutty undertones, or even a slightly green, almost celery-like crispness. The texture it evokes is dry, rough, and grounding. Its intensity can range from piercingly sharp and green in the opening to a smooth, persistent woody-smoky drydown. As a classic base note, vetiver possesses excellent projection and exceptional longevity, anchoring compositions and providing a lasting foundation.
