Grey Vetiver

Tom Ford Grey Vetiver is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2023. Grey Vetiver opens with Orange Blossom, settles into a heart of Saffron, and dries down to a base of Vetiver. Tom Ford's Grey Vetiver carries an Acquired verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

Tom Ford Grey Vetiver Parfum is a divisive beast. It's either a masterful, deeper take on the original Grey Vetiver, or a cash-grab disaster that smells like old bandages or bug spray. It doesn't skimp on the vetiver, that's for sure.

Its clean, professional, and slightly reserved character makes it highly suitable for office and formal wear. While some reviewers praise its excellent longevity, others find projection too timid to be a showstopper for casual or date settings, where a bit more vibrancy is often preferred.

About

This one opens with a subtle hint of orange blossom, quickly giving way to a prominent, raw vetiver. It's earthy and woody, leaning into a dark, rooty profile, with saffron adding a leathery, warm spicy depth. You'll catch metallic and green nuances throughout, making for a scent that's unapologetically vetiver-centric with a modern, sophisticated edge. Some even pick up a pencil shavings or mineral quality.
