Launched in 2025 by Ormonde Jayne and crafted by perfumers Geza Schoen and Linda Pilkington, Vetiveria is an aromatic fougere that defies convention with its intricate blend of freshness and earthiness. The fragrance opens with a bright citrus-aromatic accord, featuring lime and orange, which cuts through the herbal notes like sage and juniper berry. As it settles, vetiver takes center stage, grounding the composition in rich earthen tones while tonka bean adds a touch of sweetness that keeps the scent from being too austere.

Application Tips
Apply Vetiveria lightly to pulse points; its aromatic notes are more impactful close to skin than in the air. The vetiver base develops gradually over time, so it's best experienced through a full day rather than just an initial burst.
