The Shadow in the Room.

Most Vetiver fragrances are "sporty." They focus on the green, grassy, soapy side of the plant. They smell like a sunny day at the country club.

Black Vetiver is the other side of the coin. It is the root, not the grass. It is the earth, not the air.

This is a scent for the man who prefers a charcoal suit to a polo shirt. It is tailored, serious, and undeniably sophisticated.

The Reserve Difference: Haitian Vetiver There is Vetiver, and then there is Haitian Vetiver. It is the gold standard of perfumery, known for its deep, smoky, and slightly nutty profile. The Twist: We didn't just bottle the root. We ignited it. We blended the dark, resinous Haitian Vetiver with a sharp crack of Black Pepper and Pink Peppercorn. This adds a modern, spicy vibration that cuts through the heaviness of the wood, creating a scent that feels electric.

Eau de Parfum (EDP) Concentration Vetiver is a base note. It is heavy. By compounding this at EDP strength, we ensure that the deep, earthy dry-down sticks to your skin for 10+ hours, evolving slowly from spicy to woody.

🕰️ THE OLFACTORY JOURNEY

The scent of the earth after a storm.

Most modern colognes try to smell "clean." They smell like laundry detergent or shower gel. Black Vetiver is the antithesis of that. It is raw, elemental, and unapologetically masculine.

We built this fragrance to capture the smell of volcanic soil and ancient roots. It doesn't ask for permission; it commands the room with a dark, smoky gravity that feels like armor.

The Olfactory Journey:

• The Opening (0–30 Minutes): It hits you with an aggressive crack of Crushed Black Pepper and tart Bergamot. It is spicy, dry, and immediately wakes up the senses.
• The Heart (1–4 Hours): As the spice settles, the "black" notes emerge. A heavy dose of Cedarwood and Sandalwood creates a dry, woody bridge.
• The Dry Down (4–10+ Hours): This is where the money is. The Haitian Vetiver takes over, warming on your skin to create a rich, smoky, and earthy aura that lingers all day.

Who is this for?

• The Individualist: You hate smelling like "everyone else."
• The Evening Wearer: Perfect for date nights, formal events, or cooler weather.
• The Vetiver Purist: If you love Encre Noire or Terre d'Hermès but want something rawer and more artisan, this is your holy grail.

• Family: Woody / Spicy / Earthy
• Top Notes: Black Pepper, Bergamot, Pink Peppercorn
