What do reviewers say about Vetiver and Open?
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
This is a tobacco-citrus composition that actually earns its 1985 vintage. Not the fragrance that fills a room, it knows when to step back. Moderate sillage, but the drydown lasts and lasts.Open
