About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Gray Vetiver Intense opens with a bright, green citrus blend of grapefruit and orange blossom, sharpened by a sage note that adds an aromatic edge. The heart introduces a warm spiciness through nutmeg, orris root, and pimento, which softens the citrus and bridges to the earthy base. The drydown is dominated by vetiver, supported by woodsy notes, oakmoss, and amber, creating a deep, mossy foundation with a lingering woody character.

This fragrance suits collectors who appreciate a robust, earthy vetiver with a spicy twist. Its strong woody and aromatic accords make it ideal for cooler weather or evening wear, and it projects with confidence. The 2009 release remains a sought-after discontinued gem for those who favor classic, masculine compositions with a modern intensity.
