    Real talk

    Vetiver is the most misunderstood note in perfumery. Too often it's a supporting actor, the earthiness that grounds a florals or a tobacco blend. Vetiver by Hiram Green puts the material front and.Vétiver
    Every house has done a fresh fragrance. The problem is most of them stop there, the opening shine, then blank. Eau Sauvage Cologne is different. François Demachy put all the energy in the top but made sure the heart has substance and the base has weight. It doesn't smell like most colognes, which smell like air fresheners and waiting rooms. Dior's version smells like it just walked in from the Mediterranean coast in the sunshine, citrus and woody depth coexisting, making you remember this isn't your grandfather's herbal remedy.Eau Sauvage
