A brand new creation from Givaudan's newly coined "House of Naturals" (they are currently in the process of rebranding their recent acquisition of the famed perfumery natural raw materials producer Albert Vieille). This raw material leverages their partnership with a cooperative of local Vetiver farmers in Haiti and their carefully curated extraction process which reduces the amount of sesquiterpenes (reducing the earthy and muddy notes) while increasing the ketones (e.g. vetivone) which emphasises the grapefruit base notes in the drydown. This truly is an exceptionally clean vetiver and the perfect addition to any perfumer's collection.

And I’ve tried them all, as it’s my favourite.
It knocks the socks off even vetiveryl acetate.
It’s nice and concentrated meaning that you don’t have to use a lot.
It actually works so well in my diffuser as well. But I’m excited to continue blending it as i have the the fragrance foundry’s Javanol. Which is a transformative aroma chem
This has a profile in the dry out comparable to other MD vetiver oils, but stands out for its more impactful top note. It is noticeably diffusive as well in comparison. The character is less severely rooty than a non MD vetiver, with a more pronounced grapefruit facet and a clean woody, slightly spicy dry out.
Rich and earthy aroma, currently I'm trying find with which material works wonders, so It'd mean the world. to me if somebody recommend me their favorite combonations with vetiver! What an amazing product!!
Previously I had used typical Vetiver esssntial oils in my fragrance compositions and it was rather limited in its use. On first sniff I recognisdthis vetiver because I had experienced a similar note in many vetiver perfumes I love such as sycamore and encore noir. It still has some earthy depth but this is much cleaner and distinctive with a sharpness and clarity that you don't get from the usual essential oil of vetiver. This opens up a door to creating significantly different and improve vetiver-based compositions for me.
This store has helped me learn more about the vast differences between different products that may be sold under the same name, and this is a great example of that. Learning about oils such as this one and their patchouli oil, which again is better than the typical esssntial oil, has certainly widened my horizons of what I thought was possible as a hobbyist perfumer who has limited knowledge of sourcing ingredients such as these. I also really appreciated the useful descriptions for all the products from the perspective of a real perfumer. Often it's difficult to gain insight in forge nature and use of raw materials and these descriptions really are helpful for learning about different ingredients.
The materials I ordered came quickly and are of great quality - the handy pre-printed labels with different dilutions on them are super helpful. I will be ordering from The Fragrance Foundry again!
