They sent me a decant of this fragrance for a stranger, and honestly, I was surprised. At first, I detected a subtle, acidic leather note—nothing overpowering—and later, a very soft vetiver base emerged, reminiscent of Tom Ford’s Grey Vetiver but without its intensity. Sincerely, it has pleasantly surprised me, and given the price, I think it’s worth owning. It’s a scent very different from the classics.
