Vétiver carries in its genes a timeless modernity that has let it span the decades without showing its age. Born in 1957, it was a salute to the legendary elegance of Philippe Mallet, Madame Carven's husband. It opens on a vibrant aromatic citrus note, brimming with grapefruit, bergamot and lemongrass. Its heart is a symphony of lavender, orange blossom and geranium that picks up excitement. With base notes of sensuous nutmeg softened by benzoin, sandalwood and cedar with, underlying it all, the glory of Vétiver.
