    What do reviewers say about Homme and Vetiver?

    Lavender and leather shouldn't work this well. One recalls barbershops and grandfathers; the other, worn car seats and late nights. Jacques Flori built this around that tension.Homme
    Vetiver is one of perfumery's most misunderstood notes. Too often it plays a supporting role, the earthiness that grounds a floral or a tobacco blend. Vetiver puts the material front and center.Vetiver
