    What do reviewers say about Vétiver Overdrive and Golden Vetiver?

    Built for the hour the radio still plays blues. Not a safe woody, the mineral and ambroxan pull it somewhere austere, almost electric. But that contrast is exactly the point.Vétiver Overdrive
    Golden Vetiver isn't the loudest fragrance in the room. It doesn't need to be. What it does have is an almost stubborn refinement, citrus that refuses to fade into background noise.Golden Vetiver
