The Different Company Sel de Vetiver is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2006, created by Céline Ellena. Sel de Vetiver opens with Bergamot, Grapefruit, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Vetiver, Geranium, and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Salt and Iris. The Different Company's Sel de Vetiver carries a Favourite verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

This isn't your average vetiver. Sel de Vetiver is a divisive scent, some hail it as a unique masterpiece, others recoil from its sharp, chemical edge. Definitely try before you buy, but for the right nose, it's a refreshing escape.

Its fresh, clean, and often subtle sillage makes it ideal for office and casual wear, especially in warmer weather many reviewers mention. The occasional sharp or 'bleach-like' note mentioned by some could be off-putting in a formal setting, and moderate longevity might necessitate reapplication for an evening date.

About

Opens with a brisk pop of grapefruit and a hint of spicy cardamom, quickly delving into a heart of green, earthy vetiver. A unique salty accord washes over the composition, evoking the sea, while touches of geranium and ylang-ylang add a subtle floral grace. The dry down settles into a woody vetiver, grounded by iris, with that distinctive saline whisper lingering throughout.
