Vetyverso (Masters' Collection)
Regular price $ 180.00Vetiver root, which has always been known for its beneficial properties and famed for its capability to ward off negative energy, was an essence very much in vogue in men's fragrances of the seventies and eighties. It returns today to express its elegance for all genders in Vetyverso. The smoky wood character of vetiver is beautifully illuminated by bitter orange and made sparkling by spice notes, forming a perfect fragrance for those seeking an olfactory surprise.
"From every trip, I have always brought back an olfactory memory of the places visited. From a trip to the Antilles, I can recall the memory of their olfactory power: on the slopes of the volcanoes grow the roots of vetiver, with its virile and woody notes. Here the mornings shine with the freshness of fruits and, little by little, the air vibrates with noble and precious spicy scents. It was from these first memories that I built Vetyverso: a fragrance with a decisive and intriguing trail." – Lucien Ferrero (Vetyverso perfumer)
Notes: carnation, nutmeg, bitter orange, vetiver, black pepper, pink pepper, grapefruit, cedar, clary sage, sandalwood, white musks

Sample Orders
Samples are designed to help you evaluate scents you might want to later purchase as a full bottle. You may order one sample per fragrance, up to 15 total in a single order. Samples are non-refundable.
For sample orders, please check your packing slip for a special code that will allow you to redeem the price of samples and sample shipping when purchasing full bottles of the scents you sample ($10 off full bottles).
Complimentary Samples
We provide complimentary samples with $75+ full-bottle purchases. You may request up to 3 samples with any qualifying order. Please use the Order Note section on the Shopping Cart overlay to let us know which complimentary samples you would like. We'll try to provide the scents you've requested, but substitutions may occur if items are out of stock.
Returns
We do not accept returns of perfumes, simply because perfumes can't be resold once they've been opened and used. We encourage you to order samples before purchasing full bottles of perfume. And here's the good news — with every sample purchased, we'll send you a coupon code that allows you to redeem the cost of the sample and sample shipping if you buy a full bottle of the fragrance you tried (in other words, you get $10 off).
Please contact orders@ministryofscent.com if you have a question or issue related to your order or shipping.
I received a sample of this fragrance and the more I wear it, the more I fall in love with it. It has a peppery sharpness to it with an incredible cedar and sandalwood duo note. The vetiver is spectacular and I’ve received more compliments when wearing this fragrance. I’m pretty sure I’ll be adding this to my collection very soon. So glad I sampled it.
It’s a unique scent for a fancy gentlemen but I don’t think it would be my first choice for any occasion
