Initial spray is this bright blast of sweet almost boozy citrus - completely different from any other citrus I've smelled paired with a Vetiver - along with fresh green leaf Vetiver. The citrus scent might not even be orange, but it's not lemon either. I'm not sure what citrus it is but paired with this fresh green Vetiver they just smell great together. As ...

The visits for innoculations were almost a relief from normal harrasment/training. I went through at a time when physical abuse of recruits by drill instructors was the norm.

Roja Vetiver honestly comes off derivative to me. The biggest difference I noticed was the addition of Rose made this scent ...

It's completely out of this world. You get this green note Vetiver (not necessarily fresh leaf or earthy/rooty more green) mixed with suede (very specifically suede not leather) and spices. I don't know how many of you are familiar with Bay Rum aftershave but that's sort of the feel I get from this. Bay Rum ...
