Bois de Vetiver is a woody floral for men from Karl Lagerfeld, released in 2017 and composed by Christophe Raynaud. People describe it as woody and floral in equal measure, and about half add sweet, aromatic, ambery or citrus to the picture.
It starts with blood orange and pink grapefruit, a juicy, slightly bitter citrus, sharpened by mint. The heart brings rose and geranium, a rosy, green pairing, together with vetiver, which adds its dry, earthy, faintly smoky character and gives the fragrance its name. The base is musk, Ambroxan and patchouli: clean, slightly salty warmth and a soft earthiness that stays close to the skin.
Most wearers find the longevity moderate, and a fair number call it weak, so it is not built for a full day without a top-up. Sillage is moderate to intimate. Spring and summer lead the seasonal votes and it is overwhelmingly worn by day, which points to office hours, mild weather and anyone who wants vetiver without heaviness.
