The strength of vetiver softened by delicious hazelnut. Comfortable, fresh, confident.

"Initially used in fragrances for women and, with time, in fragrances for men, the unrefined, rough, earthy scent of vetiver appealed to me. I had to appropriate and reinvent it. I wanted a tender, enveloping, warm vetiver. What it needed was tonka bean! With its caramel, praline and blonde tobacco notes, tonka bean draped vetiver in softness and gave its woody notes a mellow roundness."
