Henry Creed Fourth GenerationJohn Henry Creed

"Vétiver is a classic masculine fragrance built around a dry, mineralic vetiver character. Its opening combines bright citrus and bergamot with an elegant, clean freshness. Ginger adds a dry, lively spiciness through the heart. The base develops into a woody composition supported by cedar, ambergris, and sandalwood. It has an austere, refined character that recalls traditional gentlemanly and barbershop fragrances rather than the brighter, soapier profile of Original Vetiver. The fragrance is now regarded as a discontinued vintage Creed release and is primarily encountered through collector channels."

Reviews Summary

“Vétiver is regarded as an austere, timeless gentleman’s fragrance. Its bright citrus opening leads to dry ginger and a mineralic, astringent vetiver, with woody sandalwood, cedar, and salty ambergris in the drydown. Vintage enthusiasts commonly describe it as elegant, masculine, and reminiscent of a refined barbershop classic.”
