If anyone still has doubts about Aaron and his authenticity as a chemist devoted to the craft of perfumery (which no one should but...haters) the fact that he feels that the perfumer of Grey Vetiver is French is spot on! Harry Fremont, born in Cannes and trained at the prestigious ISIPCA before going on to join Firmenich, created Grey Vetiver and is an award-winning perfumer for many fragrance houses. Amazing to see how a truly skilled 'nose' works!

I am not a huge fan of Vetiver but this fragrance is an absolute masterpiece! It is so beautifully blended to the point that you get that vetiver but the grapefruit for me really tones it down to where I like the vetiver. It’s not too citrusy, not too woody, not too earthy, the perfumer is very skilled to have come up with this. The amalgamation is so well done and it is absolutely the cleanest fragrance I have ever smelt with Prada L’homme being a close second. In terms of sophistication, I don’t think you can top this.

Agreed. Vetiver can be really "mediciney". But this stuff is great! Many of my favorite Tom Ford scents are dark, strong, leathery, woody, almost dirty, and perfect for winter. Grey Vetiver is the freshest and cleanest Tom Ford scent I've tried and it isn't overly sweet. Aaron describing it as "dry" is a good observation.

I love love love this fragrance. Wary though as on fragrantica it suggests that it's been reformulated and really weak now. According to everyone on fragrantica everything is reformulated and weak to be fair. When did you buy your most recent bottle and what's your take on this? Asking for a friend

@@jamesmochan8576 James, I bought TF Grey Vetiver EDP in 2022. I wouldn’t say it’s the strongest fragrance but spraying on clothes in addition to skin it lasts more than adequately. I think your friend would struggle not to love this. In a side note my friend has the newer Parfum version. It’s not as bright and airy, it’s darker and richer. If it’s for summer spring go with the EDP if it’s for Autumn, Winter I think the Parfum maybe more suitable. It’s definitely more grey. You can’t go wrong with either. Pure class.

I own alot of tom Fords and I was actually trying the new ombre leather parfum. I sampled the grey vetiver and went full circle and went for that. Sometimes you get overwhelmed with fragrances so when you smell vetiver with its clean fresh herbaceous earthy flavour it's this master of simplicity which grounds you and makes you realise this is why you love perfumery x

Where did you find it? I've tried all the local department stores (Nordstrom, etc-Nordstrom has a sample bottle, but they won't sell it!) and no has it or can get it. Seems like lots of counterfeit online. Thanks. Iman said this was David Bowie's favorite. I wrote Tom Ford and told them they should re-release the scent, but rename it "Bowie." No response so far. :) By the way, thanks for the great review, Aaron. Going to check out your website now.

@@denniss8644 I generally agree with you, but I think it depends on location as well. I live in Bulgaria (Eastern Europe). In EE, people are generally more into darker, basey, heavier scents, more so than, say, France, England, etc. I'm 20 years old and I've been rocking the Terre parfum. Random people are loving it on me and I myself am in love with it. I do think, that if I were to wear it in Central Europe, I'd get less compliments.

One of my older Vetiver fragrances that I loved was L'Occitane Vetyver, but, sadly, it was discontinued. My current favorite Vetiver fragrances are Guerlain Vetiver, Jovoy de Paris' Incident Diplomatique and Private Label (they perfectly encapsulate the different Vetivers of creamy versus earthy), Terre d'Hermès Eau Intense Vetiver, Nishane's Sultan Vetiver, Maison Anthony Marmin's Mukhallat de Medellin and some Indian Khas Attars. Another oriental version of Vetiver I like and is worth trying out is Rasasi's Fattan, which interestingly enough is more expensive than the Guerlain Vetiver.... Also, one perfume created by Natalie Lorson is excellent: Lalique's Encre Noir a l'Extrème - outstanding especially for the price.

I enjoy Terre d'Hermes too. I'd also humbly suggest the Eau Intense Vetiver from the same line. While I enjoy Grey Vetiver, I feel the Eau Intense Vetiver is a more casual version of Grey Vetiver. It's not dirty, it's clean, brighter, little more sparkle/spice. It just feels very uplifting imo. A lot of people tend to crap on it purely because it wasn't perfumed by Jean-Claude Ellena but it's a very good, affordable vetiver scent! :D

Grey Vetiver is my clean & pressed white oxford shirt perfume. Sharp but soft. Somewhat quiet and reserved but in a fashionable way. Also great in the summer to just spice things up. I'm not a big fan of vetiver in general as it tends to lean tn the B.O. side on my skin, but there are a few that clean it up into something I can enjoy.

Great summary. Grey Vetiver is really clean, masculine, and subtle. Many recommend it's a "summer" fragrance, but I feel it's great year 'round. Another Vetiver I like is Prada Infusion de Vetiver (it came out around 2012). It has a bit of a "peppery" top note, but on the dry down, it smells like a fresh British grassy meadow. A classic Vetiver everyone would like is "Vetiver" de Guerlain, one of the best -- if not the most prestigious and world renowned -- French perfumers. One can't get more Vetiver than Vetiver de Guerlain!

My favorite fragrance. One of the few where I needed a backup bottle. I personally like vetiver, and enjoy some dirtier iterations, but I have my limits (Bentley Wild Vetiver and Nishane Sultan Vetiver are too dirty for me, but I like Encre Noire). However, to be honest, the cleaner herbal/metallic vetiver smell is more pleasant to me (Creed Original Vetiver, TF Grey Vetiver).

I love dark and smoky Vetiver, i'm using "Terroni" by Orto Parisi (new brand made by the same nose of Nasomatto). Dark vetyver with a blast of Tocopheryl Acetate in the opening (a rhubarby note, i think is that acetate, correct me if i'm wrong), incense and other compounds sweetening the composition in the drydown. The aim was to recreate the heat of landscapes and people of southern Italy ("Terroni" is the disparaging T-word northern italians address the southern ones with, but in that case is used without wickedness). It's radiant and long lasting, i'd like you to try it and see your face :)

Hi Aaron, to me the dirty and earthy vetiver is Vetiver Java, as opposed to the more fresh and citrusy Vetiver Haiti. Both of these vetivers smell earthy in their essential oil form, but java is the murkiest and darkest. The Vetiveryl acetate of Java (Vetiveryl Acetate ex Java) smells really like Encre Noire, Molecule 03 and Sycomore. It is far less murky than the EO, but you still get the darkness. In fact, I think the reasons these fragrances are often compared is because the Vetiveryl acetate ex Java. It has such a distinct smell, and gives a lot of direction to these fragrances. The Haitian version of the Vetiveryl Acetate (Vetiveryl Acetate ex Haiti) is much, much more citrusy and clean. This is the kind that is used in substantial amounts in Terre d'Hermes and Bal d'Afrique to my nose. I like both a lot actually, there are more vetivers like Khus and Mauritian, Indian and Bourbon Vetiver, but I don't have much experience with them. My favourite Vetiver fragrances are Chanel Sycomore and Vetiver Extraordinaire by Frederic Malle. P.S. Will you one day give your take on Ganymede by Marc-Antoine Barrois? It is a really nice scent, I think you might even like it yourself, very gentlemanly

Do love Grey Vetiver! I do think it smells very similar to Roja's Vetiver Parfum Cologne actually, though that's a bit more mature-smelling so I prefer the Tom Ford. Btw, Haitian vetiver's the one that smells herbaceous and Indian and Javanese vetivers are the dirty, smoky ones! ;-)

Vetivers give depth without warmth, Indiam vetiver with it's green rosy character can be used in feminine summer fragrances and Haitian Vetivery can be used for deep woodsy creations. Haitian vetiver can also be used with gourmands.

Grey Vetiver is my favourite vetiver fragrance for day or office wear. Guerlain Vetiver is lovely and clean though a little less complex. Idon't really see the point in spending £250 for Roja Vetiver. It's nice, but not that nice. Grey Vetiver, I think, had been discontinued for some unknown reason.

I'm a older woman who often wears fragrances made for men and other 'strange' ones (LOVE ouds, Chanel Sycamore, Cabochard). Have had Guerlain Vetiver in the past. Just bought this for myself (online) for my birthday without even trying it based on the David Bowie connection (scuse if that sounds lame, but the chap did have good taste....). .Then decided to watch some reviews 🙃 Love your presentation style and looking forward to receiving my bottle of this in the mail. I hardly ever go 'out; so I'm as likely to wear this gardening.. just for myself 😊

TF nailed this for sure. Vetiver and oakmoss done this way is my favorite combo. Backed with some freshness creates the dream team when I think of masculine signature scents. Already had women at the office asking me what it was so they could buy it for their husbands. Solid

Favorite vetiver is by Hermes called Bel Ami Vetiver. I have tried many and own many vetivers, Bel Ami Vetiver still outclasses them all. Very underrated in my view. I like all vetiver really; smokey, earthy, rooty, woody, smooth, ambery; it is all good to me. However, to earn a spot in my collection a vetiver has to be doing something unique. Especially in the drydown. Too many vetivers lack depth in the base notes and just smell of vetiver. I may as well just wear vetiver oil neat and save my money.

Such a Quality review there Aaron. I got a 100ml bottle back in 2013 and I could could still catch a whiff of it 11 hours later after applying the fragrance. Excellent, masculine and versatile to go to the office in during the Spring and Summer or a day scent when you’re out and about

Nishane’s Sultan Vetiver is fantastic, but I’m not sure you would like it. It has three or four types of vetiver and the way it transforms as it dries is amazing. It goes from grassy to dirty to woody and then you get a similar clean freshness that’s in Grey Vetiver that shines thru as it dries.

BTW/ my favorite vetiver scents are Eau Sauvage Parfum-2017 formulation & Bvlgari Man Terrae Essence. Bvlgari I believe has vetiver from Haiti and Java. I love the woodiness of vetiver, but also when it's creamy and smooth. It is a very versatile note. It's also lovely when blended with a bit of lavender 💜 .

I have a feeling you would like -Fat Electrician by ELDO. It's a slightly sweet vetiver. It's not cloying at all and it's interesting but really wearable.
