Vétiver Vert Eau de Parfum
Czech & Speake · £160
Nice, but provisional
Bergamot and mandarin into laurel and galbanum, over Haitian vetiver and sandalwood, which is the citrus and green reading of vetiver rather than the smoky one. It is properly made, and the £20 between it and the Miller Harris is not the thing to decide on: those two smell different and that is the choice. Part of what £160 buys is the handmade steel cap and the printed glassware, which you will look at every morning.
- For
- Someone who wants vetiver as citrus and green, and who likes the bottle on the shelf.
- Not for
- Anyone after the smoky reading of vetiver, which the Miller Harris gives for less.

Marked provisional: the justification rests on 1 source(s); two independent ones is the bar. We publish it anyway and say so, rather than waiting for evidence that may never arrive.
