Vetiver

Hiram Green's Vetiver presents a highly natural, earthy interpretation of the vetiver note, delivering a fresh, aromatic profile that leans into the green and damp qualities of the root. The scent opens with bright citrus and ginger, which act as a lively, zesty prelude, before yielding to a core of Haitian and Java vetiver that unfolds with herbal, grassy, and slightly astringent notes. The drydown features a subtle cedar and musky ambrette that lend depth and quiet elegance, giving the fragrance a refined, linear character. While it lacks strong sillage or extreme longevity, it maintains moderate wearability and feels authentic, with no synthetic or artificial impressions. The scent is best understood as a single-minded vetiver experience—balanced, clean, and grounded, though some find a lingering astringency or off-putting ginger undertone, particularly on skin.
