Other than the price, I have no complaints. It resembles Guerlain, I think. Maybe not as clean and fresh as Guerlain. Less citrus, kind of medicinal on the opening. The ginger is unmistakable, sharp and pungent, but not biting. The dry down is woodier and spicier. Not grassy like the L'Occitane, maybe not as sweet as Grey Vetiver, but there is some there (ambergris?).
It took a lot of pumping to prime the atomizer. I thought I would have to send it back, but then it kicked in.
The ginger followed by the ambergris set this vetiver apart from others. It is has decent staying power. If vetiver is your thing you may want to add it to your arsenal.
