Vetiver

by Lorenzo Villoresi

Lorenzo Villoresi Vetiver is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1994, created by Lorenzo Villoresi. Vetiver opens with Lavender, Rosewood, Mint, and Petitgrain, settles into a heart of Caraway, Neroli, Celery Seeds, and Sage, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. Lorenzo Villoresi's Vetiver carries an Acquired verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

This is for the uncompromising vetiver head. While some will find its strong, earthy opening a bit much, it delivers a naturalistic, almost brutalist take on the note that serious collectors will appreciate. Not for the faint of heart, or those who prefer their vetiver a touch more polished.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring
Also Works:
Summer Fall Winter

A spring fragrance - light, bright, made for the warmer turn of the year.

Best Occasions

Also Works:
Casual

The strong, earthy and often described 'harsh' opening makes it a less ideal fit for office or formal settings. Its naturalistic, almost rugged character leans more towards casual wear, though its sophisticated backbone could work for a daring date night. It's too complex and heavy for sport.

About

Opens with a potent, almost medicinal green bitterness from galbanum and mint, quickly joined by an intense, dirty vetiver. The heart introduces a surprising celery seed and caraway spice, adding an unusual vegetable earthiness. The dry down settles into a damp, smoky vetiver blend with sandalwood and patchouli, hinting at a subtle sweetness from tonka, leaving a lingering, naturalistic woodsiness.
