The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2018 by Essential Parfums, Mon Vetiver is a woody aromatic fragrance for women and men created by perfumer Bruno Jovanovic. This composition starts with an aromatic freshness that immediately catches the senses — vetiver takes center stage, its earthy roots grounding the scent while citrus notes add a bright, zesty contrast. The heart of this fragrance is anchored in vetiver's woody essence, softened slightly by fresh spicy elements that keep the overall impression dynamic and engaging.

How to wear it

Mon Vetiver has a strong vetiver presence that projects well but also settles close to the skin. For best effect, apply one or two sprays directly onto pulse points — this allows the scent to develop gradually throughout the day without overpowering the surrounding space.
