Vetiver Perfumes & Colognes
272 fragrances in the SCNTMIX catalog feature vetiver, 232 of them in the base, where a note lasts longest. Each links to its full profile with notes, performance, dupes and layering pairs.
Vetiver is a grass whose roots are distilled into one of perfumery's most important woody materials. It smells dry, earthy and green, with smoky, slightly salty and nutty facets depending on where it is grown.
Haitian vetiver is the most common: clean, green and a little citrusy. Javanese vetiver is smokier and darker, and Indian vetiver (khus) is earthier and more medicinal. Many fragrances use a refined vetiver that keeps the freshness without the roots' raw earthiness.
Vetiver is a base note, so it gives fragrances staying power and a crisp, dry finish. It is a classic in men's colognes but works in any unisex or feminine scent that needs structure. It layers easily with citrus, woods, iris and incense.

Vetiver perfume FAQ
What does vetiver smell like?
Vetiver smells woody, earthy and green, often with smoky, salty or nutty facets. It feels clean and dry rather than sweet, like fresh-cut grass and damp soil over wood.
Is vetiver a masculine scent?
It is a staple of men's colognes, but vetiver itself is unisex. Paired with iris, florals or citrus it appears in many women's and unisex fragrances.
What should I layer with a vetiver fragrance?
Vetiver layers well with citrus or bergamot for a fresh cologne feel, with cedar or sandalwood for more wood, and with iris or incense for something smokier and more refined. Try it in MixMode.
