Two new men are becoming faces of fragrances: Fendi wil... Go
Grapefruit, Cardamom, Vetiver Fraction
Haitian Vetiver, Geranium, Lovage, Ylang-Ylang
French Bourbon, Vetiver, Patchouli, Resinoid Iris, Salicylates
A year after Jasmin de Nuit, Celine Ellena presents her second fragrant creation for The Different Company. Sel de Vetiver blends waves of ‘a fierce, burning vetiver’ with a luminous accord evoking an imaginary note of salt. The fragrance designed with a boldly sincere artistic sensibility will thrill men and women looking for new olfactory sensations.
Three different vetiver notes were used: a fraction with fresh, tangy waves of scent, a Haitian vetiver essence and a French Bourbon vetiver, allowing the fragrance to reveal different facets of the plant: woody, smoky and more. The other unusual thing about it: the creation of a salt accord, a fictitious note in perfumery, thanks to the alliance of lovage (an aromatic note), resinoid iris (drier) and salicylates (slightly solar note). The fragrance is punctuated with a pinch of grapefruit and cardamom for freshness and patchouli for extra voluptuousness.
Eau de Parfum: 3 fl. oz. glass bottle, 6.8 fl. oz. leather-wrapped bottle. Long Trip: 1.7 fl. oz. 48-hour range: 1/3 fl. oz.
The elegant, spare and massive house bottle, designed by Thierry de Baschmakoff.
This perfume has a great opening - iodine, salt, sea foam. After about 10 minutes, all that is lost and a slightly boring vetiver keeps droning on and on - for hours. A fairly linear scent. For a more interesting and refined salt scent, check out Heeley's Sel Marine. More
