TOM FORD Grey Vetiver

This is Tom Ford's masterful rendition of the cool and intriguing possibilities of vetiver-the hallmark of a classic, sophisticated, unabashedly masculine man. The fragrance moves vetiver from the background to a signature placement that develops from top note to drydown. The scent revolves around ultra-pure essence of vetiver, obtained by a revolutionary extraction technique.The iconic vetiver note achieves its full potential within a construction of enhancing elements. On top, orange flower, grapefruit, and aromatic sage lend freshness. Warm woods wrap and balance the top layer as enlivening middle notes composed of orris, nutmeg, and pimiento impart a clean, grounded energy. A wash of golden amber woods leads into a fascinating, rich drydown. Oakmoss contributes a green and woodsy impression and completes the refined harmony that floats coolly onto the skin, simultaneously melting into the body's natural heat.The frosted bottle includes a silver-toned cap and neck ring, and a palladium plaque bearing the Tom Ford logo. The fluted carton's silver accents and borders hint at the character of the precious, pale juice within.

Very Different.
-03.13.13
I wet shave, straight razor, shaving brush and shaving soaps. One shaving soap I use is vetiver. I love the smell of this soap but it can be overpowering, it's definitely not for the timid, very manly. I wanted to purchase a vetiver cologne to complement my shaving routine and TOM FORD's Grey vetiver was the answer. TOM FORD's version is subtle enough so the vetiver does not overwhelm. If you're looking for a cologne with a very unique and manly scent give this a try.

So Sexy...
-03.09.13
Quick Take: sexy, mysterious, clean, woodsy
This is such a sexy scent that I bought it for myself instead of my husband. He still uses it, but it's mine. I wear it all the time. It's a perfect blend of softness, cleanness, and mystery.

Different from what I normally purchase
-01.07.13
Quick Take: fresh, intriguing
So I purchased this for my husband for Christmas and the cologne has a surprisingly hint of a fresh undertone. He was pleasantly surprised and loved the fragrance. It is different from what he usually wears, but in an intriguing, mysterious way. You will not be disappointed.

Autumn notes
-09.10.12
Quick Take: travel-friendly
I bought this for myself. Particularly, for the the autumn months. I wanted something masculine. I also wanted a scent that would make me feel great on an overcast day. Or, while I'm in a big bulky jumper and leggings or, oxfords a white men's shirt and red matte lipstick. I think this scent is perfect for both men and women. It is a very sophisticated smell. I think Tom Ford is a hallmark of modern luxury. Grey Vetiver falls in line with that concept. Love this.

Great for a Woman
-08.09.12
I enjoy wearing scents made for men because I can't tolerate the cloying, overpoweringly sweet scents that are mostly made for women. This is nice, clean, earthy, and sexy. My daily scent.

My favorite fragrance
-04.06.12
Quick Take: luxury in a bottle, long-lasting, aromatic, sexy, masculine, subtle, spicy
I receive numerous compliments everytime I wear this fragrance. I love/hate the price. I love that it's expensive and that not everybody will spend that much $ for a cologne. I like having something not many people will have. But, it is pricey. However, it is a deep and rich aroma. Tom Ford products always evoke a sense of luxury. Grey Vetiver lives up to the brand's reputation.

Sexy Fragrance
-01.21.12
This is a heavier fragrance but very sexy! One spray is more than enough. I ended up purchasing the small bottle because it's more of an evening fragrance for me. A but too much for daytime in my opinion but I do work closely with people in a gym setting so I don't like to wear anything too strong. It's definitely for someone who likes classic masculine fragrances and isn't shy about it.

LOVE THIS...ON ME!
-01.21.12
Quick Take: intoxicating, sexy, destined to become a classic, one i wish my husband would wear
I received a very generous sample of this through New Beauty's "Test Tube" sample program which I highly recommend. (I've discovered outrageous products that have become mainstays & am continually discovering more!) In any event,this fragrance remained in it's box for quite some time before curiosity got the best of me & I gave it a whiff. Wow...I immediately fell in love with this intoxicating,very sensual fragrance. In my opinion,one of the best to come along in quite some time.

If you love vetiver
-12.21.11
im an admitted cologne wh0re. this was worth every penny. The scent of vetiver is more delicate than other vetiver versions and combines a slightly powdery scent. absolute keeper.

Classic

Quick Take: traditional, upscale, boardroom, confident
Don't buy this with light heart. It is not a cheep white trash neck spray. It is based on classic French mens scents. It is beautiful and very masculine.

NOT GOOD ON MY HUSBAND
-05.30.11
Quick Take: something in this i don't like at all
My husband is trying to find a fragrance for everyday. He first tried Tom Ford's Grey Vetiver" last year, and personally, I didn't like it all. He did get a few compliments, so he tried it again, months later, without telling me. I again had the same reaction last week. While on paper, it has notes I like, there's some note or combination of notes that causes me to dislike it. Maybe it's the vetiver, since I don't know what that smells like alone. I usually find masculine scents with notes or grapefruit and orange really good, but I just don't like this one at all. Try a sample, though, because you might really like it.

Confusing
-02.20.11
I got this for my guy. One time it smelled really good. The next time it didn't. Off and on it or he ends up with a smell I don't like. It only happens with this. Maybe it's too heavy for his body chemistry. Guys should try out things just like women before buying. I got him something else.

Smells Absolutely Intoxicating
-12.07.10
This cologne is so layered. The Vetiver is so clean and grassy. Woodsy and Spicy. Not Overbearing - just the right strength. Clean and Masculine. So many notes to this one. Mossy and right on!

Tom Ford.... a genius.
-09.27.10
Quick Take: fragrance of the year.
Notes of grapefruit, orange flower, sage, nutmeg, orris, pimiento, amber woods and oak moss make up grey vetiver, along with, of course, rooty vetiver.
It’s a great vetiver scent. I find that it absolutely revolutionizes the vetiver scent after many others have failed. This is an outstanding take on vetiver, especially the spicy aspects that get played up more after it’s been on a while.

Quick Take: masculine long lasting sexy
A good friend of mine wears this scent and its wonderful. I am getting some for hubby at Christmas. The scent is sexy, alluring and definately makes heads turn. It lasts as well. If you like spicy woodsy scents on you man or if you are a man and you like these types of colognes you should give this a try.
