To reinterpret the iconic perfume Vétiver, Guerlain's perfumers drew inspiration from the world of the spiritual. Based on the emblematic notes and the enchanting yet daring aesthetic of this world, which shares so much with perfumery, this fragrance is crafted from an exceptional selection of highly concentrated ingredients to create a scent of unprecedented seduction.
Composed like a gin, Vétiver Le Parfum opens with slightly bitter, aromatic notes of juniper. An exceptional vetiver essence follows, revealing its freshest facets. This noble ingredient is distilled from vetiver roots and showcases the full depth of vetiver's woody notes. Blended with fascinating smoky notes and the addictive tonka bean, beloved by Guerlain, the result is a fragrance that reveals a sublime balance of clarity and earthiness, power and elegance.
For Vétiver Le Parfum, I created an even more aromatic and intense opening with juniper berries, coriander, and liquorice. All in the style of infused gin.— Delphine Jelk, Perfumer at Guerlain.
