Perfumer: Lucien Ferrero

«From every trip, I have always brought back an olfactory memory of the places visited. From a trip to the Antilles, I can recall the memory of their olfactory power: on the slopes of the volcanoes grow the roots of Vetiver, with its virile and woody notes. Here the mornings shine with the freshness of citrus fruits and, little by little, the air vibrates with noble and precious spicy scents. It was from these first memories that I built Vetyverso: a fragrance with a decisive and intriguing trail».

Which fragrances here have a smoky or savory character?
Astra Infinita stands out for its smoky and savory qualities with notes like birch, cloves, labdanum, and oud. 104 Terra Hedera also has a resinous complexity but is less smoky than Astra Infinita.
