Nishane Sultan Vetiver is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Jorge Lee. Sultan Vetiver opens with Anise, Bergamot, and Pepper, settles into a heart of Neroli and Tonka Bean, and dries down to a base of Leather, Amber, and Vetiver. Nishane's Sultan Vetiver carries an Acquired verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

Sultan Vetiver is pure Marmite: you'll either adore its intense, earthy, almost dirty vetiver heart, or recoil from what some call musty, mouldy, or even 'toilet freshener'. This isn't a safe blind buy, so sample before committing to its unapologetic character.

Given its beast-mode performance and strong, distinctive vetiver character, Sultan Vetiver is too intense for most office settings. It excels in formal environments where its luxurious and bold nature can command attention without overwhelming, but is still versatile enough for casual wear if applied sparingly.

About

Opens with a sharp, spicy kick of pepper and anise, underpinned by bright bergamot, before plunging into a deep, multi-faceted vetiver core. It's a complex journey from fresh, aromatic green to earthy, smoky depths, softened by creamy tonka and refined by a sophisticated leather and warm amber dry-down. It's truly a vetiver bomb, showcasing all its facets from earthy-green to slightly medicinal.
