V Canto 2015 Extrait
Alibi
V Canto Alibi is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Paolo Terenzi. Alibi opens with Salt, Bergamot, Mandarin, and Cypress, settles into a heart of Cedar, Vetiver, Elemi, and Peat, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Musk, Leather, and Patchouli. V Canto's Alibi carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.
Alibi is a challenging, divisive scent that's either a natural, complex vetiver masterpiece or a weak, indecisive mess depending on who you ask. It's an art piece for the wearer's own enjoyment, perhaps not one for crowd-pleasing, despite its 'wearable' intentions.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Best Occasions
Its moderate projection and natural, unique accords make it a good fit for casual wear or dates where a more personal, intriguing aura is desired. However, general consensus points to poor longevity and sillage, which limits its suitability for formal events or an office setting where presence is key. The earthy leather profile doesn't align with sporty activities either.
