Details

Known for its rich aromatics, the Vardhana dynasty's capital city Kannauj became the center of 7th century trade. Success was not lost on the emperor, Harshavardhana, who imposed a Vetiver Tax. While many remained silent, a band of fragrance masters believed the new tax would be used to fund violence against innocent people and staged a rebellion. Under the cover of night, these rebels covered the city with aromatic oils. Subdued by the fragrant forces of Kannauj, the tax was abolished.

Scent Description

A complex and unique vetiver fragrance that combines woody and earthy elements with unexpected sweet and floral notes. Opens with grape and black cherry, transitions through a heart of cinnamon, clove, incense, cocoa, rose, and carnation, before settling on a base of cedarwood, oakwood, vanilla, birch, and vetiver.

Sweet Vetiver Symphony: Where Spice Meets Luxury
Fort & Manlé's V for Vetiver presents a bold reimagining of the classic vetiver fragrance, where earthy roots meet gourmand sophistication. This complex composition opens with an intriguing dance of spicy birch and sweet black cherry, setting the stage for an innovative olfactory journey. The heart reveals a masterful blend of warm spices and rich cocoa, while the base showcases a harmonious marriage of smooth vanilla and robust vetiver. The result is a sophisticated unisex fragrance that manages to make the traditionally masculine vetiver note more approachable while maintaining its distinguished character. Perfect for those seeking a unique take on vetiver that bridges the gap between traditional woody fragrances and modern gourmand creations.
