History & Production: Réunion Island, located in the Indian Ocean, is famed for producing some of the highest quality vetiver in the world. The plant, Chrysopogon zizanioides, is cultivated in the island’s volcanic, nutrient-rich soil, which gives the vetiver oil its unique and robust scent profile. The roots are harvested after about two years and then steam-distilled to extract the essential oil. The resulting vetiver oil from Réunion is celebrated for its superior depth and complexity, making it a prized ingredient in luxury perfumery.
