    Real talk

    Most vetiver fragrances go one of two ways: too clean or too dirty. Vitrum splits the difference. The smoke and rose make it wearable for anyone who's ever hesitated at the vetiver shelf.Vitrum
    It doesn't announce itself. The aldehydes catch you off-guard, bright, almost soapy, then everything goes soft. Violet leaf and leather exist in the same sentence without competing.Cuir de Russie
