Roger & Gallet 1992 EDP
Vetyver
Roger & Gallet Vetyver is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1992. Vetyver opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Orange, and Neroli, settles into a heart of Cedar, Iris, Carnation, and Tonka Bean, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Oakmoss. Roger & Gallet's Vetyver carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.
This one's a proper head-scratcher. Named Vetyver, yet its vetiver note is barely there for some, a lovely discovery for others. It's fleeting, refreshing, and surprisingly divisive, with many lamenting its weakness while others adore its light touch.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
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.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.
Best Occasions
Its refreshing, light nature and poor longevity make it an excellent choice for casual wear and daily use, especially in warmer weather. It's too subtle and fleeting for formal events or romantic dates, but works well for an office setting due to its unobtrusive character.
