Of all the vetivers that I own this is unique. It is the only one that can be classified as a gourmand. It smells like Noilly Prat Vermouth infused with vetiver. There is the earthiness, rootiness associated with vetiver but here it couples with some sweet notes, much like in Hermes Vetiver Tonka, but more masculine and dark.

This is a great vetiver. It has a wonderfully burnt yet wet quality that makes this seem not so much like a fragrance to be worn in autumn, but a fragrance that smells of autumn. It smells like dried, fallen tree leaves that have been rained on, plus burnt cedar logs that have been doused by the same rain. Etro’s Vetiver has a very strong opening. The vetiver has the scent of real dried vetiver roots, and gives me that feeling of smelling soil in an small, enclosed space. It makes me take shallow breaths as if the scent is dry like cold winter air and will chap my mucous membranes if I inhale too quickly. It’s very visceral in this regard.

This is a stark vetiver. Not a fresh vetiver by a long shot. No citrus, no marine notes. The woody, rooty vetiver is perfectly matched by a combination of saccharine licorice root and dry, dry woody cedar. These two elements actually mimic an aspect of vetiver and reinforce the principal vetiver note. Vetiver overload! I love it! Over time it becomes more wood than root, and the cedar dominates the drydown.

Another great vetiver to add to the huge list of great vetivers. If you like it smoky, woody, earthy, kinda rough and solidly crafted, go ahead! Good work!

When first I inhaled this scent, I connected with it in a primitive fashion. This is the scent of the Romans of the Old Republic, before the Empire's pomp and debauchery. It spoke to me across the eons of time immemorial.

Wearing it amongst the subhuman Trogdalytes of London's Underground system I could smell my own feral aroma...how Roman...how Romantic.. but wait! Was it perhaps too much hay? Too pungent? Too acrid, dry and unforgiving? Suddenly a panic gripped me - had I in fact paid £89 for 100mls of a cologne that was reminiscent of hay and saw dust saturated with rat's urine in countless cages of pink eyed rodents in some University laboratory?

My worst fears were allayed when I arrived at work and in a bloody minded determination to overcome my fear of rats pee pheromone cologne, I sprayed two bursts to my jugular...and then.. from across the arid waste of our open plan office, my female colleague exclaimed "that smells absolutely amazing!" Roma Invicta...

Yesssss...This was the scent of a Roman who spends his summers campaigning in the legion to return home and tend to his horses, his familia, his land. A time when men were men, albeit in rustic tunics.

Towering cedar, dry and rugged, its needles sweating oil in the hot Roman sun. A breeze rises from the Mediterranean, the warm wind dragging its fingers through the wild bushes of clary sage and across the fields. Deep damp Italian earth, leathery tobacco, cloying and close to the skin. Vetiver like the very roots of the land, a grassy pungency that fills the nostrils like oxen under the yoke, straw and hay broken and bleeding into the clods of herbaceous soil, the most manly reek of the land.

A land of horses, hay, clay and sage, cedar trees and a warm salty breeze. Not a land of rodents breeding in pitch black, cold urine soaked warrens. Ahhhh time to book another Roman Holiday...

Outstanding vetiver. Very profound, dense, tantalizing and somewhat enigmatic like a fabulous, mythical wood.
Good in summer on sweating skin. Also it is fine in breezy days.
Definitely masculine.

Vetiver (ETRO) is one of the best vetiver scent, I think so. This is a very fresh vetiver, without any trace of citrus, deeply woody and intense. It is long lasting on my husband`s skin - always present and never harsh. I see it as better suited for a man.
