Vétiver Écarlate
A bright, tart grapefruit and bergamot lift a vivid tomato leaf accord, before the fragrance settles into cool, earthy vetiver. Green, acidic nuances of galbanum and blackcurrant bud, brushed with gentle ginger spice, create a crisp garden‑to‑soil contrast that remains fresh yet quietly dark.

Vétiver Écarlate
A bright, tart grapefruit and bergamot lift a vivid tomato leaf accord, before the fragrance settles into cool, earthy vetiver. Green, acidic nuances of galbanum and blackcurrant bud, brushed with gentle ginger spice, create a crisp garden‑to‑soil contrast that remains fresh yet quietly dark.
Scent Development and Character
A vivid study of tomato leaf on vetiver, opening with a tart, bright grapefruit and bergamot freshness that lights up the vegetal accord. The heart leans intensely green and stemmy, where tomato leaf and galbanum create the impression of crumpled foliage brushed with a subtly sour blackcurrant nuance. As it settles, the composition dries down into a cool, earthy vetiver whose woody darkness contrasts playfully with the lingering green acidity and gentle ginger spice, keeping the fragrance linear yet textural from garden to soil.
Who It Is For and When to Wear It
The composition reads as a distinctly green, citrus‑vetiver fragrance that suits mild to warm weather. Its crisp acidity and cool woody base make it an easy choice for spring and summer daytime, from office to casual outdoor settings, while the vegetal character gives it a slightly unconventional, niche feel best appreciated by wearers comfortable with prominent green notes. Best suited to spring and summer, with enough cool vetiver and dark green depth to work in early autumn. Less ideal for very cold winter wear, where its freshness may feel muted. Editorial estimate: soft to moderate projection, forming a noticeable but restrained green aura close to the wearer rather than a large trail. Editorial estimate: around 5–7 hours on skin, with the bright citrus and green tomato leaf most prominent in the first few hours before settling into a cooler vetiver base.
