Vetiver (Indonesia)

Vetiver from Indonesia is renowned for its deep, earthy, and smoky scent, which carries an unparalleled richness compared to vetiver from other regions. Its aroma blends earthy green, woody, and slightly nutty notes, creating a sophisticated and grounding effect. This versatile note is used in both men’s and women’s perfumes, adding an element of warmth and depth. Indonesian vetiver provides a robust base note that anchors a fragrance, lending it an enduring and luxurious complexity.

History & Production: Indonesia has long been a leading producer of high-quality vetiver, known for its unique and complex olfactory profile. The vetiver plant, Chrysopogon zizanioides, thrives in the region's tropical climate, producing roots that are distilled to extract the essential oil. Harvesting involves digging up the roots after 18 to 24 months, followed by a meticulous steam distillation process. The result is an oil cherished by perfumers worldwide for its deep, smoky, and earthy scent, essential in creating high-end, lasting fragrances.
