Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Vétiver Overdrive opens with a bright, crisp bergamot that quickly intertwines with a surprisingly gentle vetiver, steering clear of anything too earthy or harsh. A clean, almost soapy musk provides a soft foundation, while geranium adds a subtle floral-green nuance. As it settles, the modern touch of ambroxan blends with cedar, creating a warm, woody, and almost creamy depth that feels both familiar and contemporary.
