Korres Vetiver Root is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2020. Vetiver Root opens with Bergamot, Cardamom, and Tea, settles into a heart of Vetiver and Lavender, and dries down to a base of Amber and Tonka Bean. Korres's Vetiver Root carries a Favourite verdict, an aromatic-led wear.

A love-it-or-hate-it scent that has people divided between 'barbershop aftershave' and 'creamy, sexy smoothness'. Don't expect YSL quality, but it's a solid, affordable alternative to La Nuit de L'Homme if you're after something warm and spicy.

Its moderate sillage and warm, woody-spicy profile make it suitable for casual wear and dates, especially in cooler weather. The lack of strong longevity and the 'aftershave' comparisons might limit its appeal for formal events or office use, though its clean facets could work for some office settings.

About

Opens with a clean, brisk burst of bergamot and green tea, quickly followed by the aromatic spice of cardamom. As it settles, a prominent, earthy vetiver takes centre stage, softened by creamy amber and a hint of sweet tonka bean in the base. It’s a warm, woody scent with surprising freshness.
