What do reviewers say about Vetiver Des Sables and Grey Vetiver?
Montale is known for pushing fragrance into warmer, richer territory, this one cools it down instead. The marine and the mineral create something bracing, almost austere.Vetiver Des Sables
This is vetiver for someone who's done with the stuff that announces itself. Harry Frémont made a deliberate choice here: restraint over projection. The result is a fragrance that rewards proximity.Grey Vetiver
