Nishane Sultan Vetiver

Mostly cool and green, like herbs crushed between your fingers. Underneath that, dry and warm, like cedar shavings or the inside of a wooden drawer.

It opens on java vetiver oil, anise and bergamot, moves through bourbon vetiver, haitian vetiver and neroli, and settles on vetiver, leather and amber.

• bergamot: bright citrus peel, sharper and greener than orange. The note that makes Earl Grey tea smell the way it does
• pepper: dry and warming, like freshly cracked black pepper

It lasts well and carries into a room.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
