If anyone still has doubts about Aaron and his authenticity as a chemist devoted to the craft of perfumery (which no one should but...haters) the fact that he feels that the perfumer of Grey Vetiver is French is spot on! Harry Fremont, born in Cannes and trained at the prestigious ISIPCA before going on to join Firmenich, created Grey Vetiver and is an award-winning perfumer for many fragrance houses. Amazing to see how a truly skilled 'nose' works!

It was launched in 2009 and it's still far from being out-of-date in my opinion. Fantastic fragrance.

It’s really cool to get more into the depths of how these perfumes are constructed! This is what makes you stand out

GV is an absolutely beautiful, timeless fragrance. A true classic. I believe you captured it perfectly in your review. It's one of those rare fragrances that just becomes part of your aura when you wear it. The best way I can describe it.

Hi Aaron, seeing you fresh looking and in a good mood makes me happy 😊, My favorite vetivers are Tom Ford Grey Vetiver, Byredo bal d'afrique and Chanel sycomore. And again I will say that I love your videos after I watch every video you post, from the first one till this❤️ KEEP IT UP BRO

Love your passion, deep knowledge and understanding of fragrances and the chemistry behind it. I envy your healthy glow. Will take a sniff of TF’s “Grey Vetiver” tomorrow at Bloomingdales.

A 10/10 rating. *WOW!* Wasn’t expecting that. 😮 Thanks Aaron.

I am not a huge fan of Vetiver but this fragrance is an absolute masterpiece! It is so beautifully blended to the point that you get that vetiver but the grapefruit for me really tones it down to where I like the vetiver. It’s not too citrusy, not too woody, not too earthy, the perfumer is very skilled to have come up with this. The amalgamation is so well done and it is absolutely the cleanest fragrance I have ever smelt with Prada L’homme being a close second. In terms of sophistication, I don’t think you can top this.

I loved the edt, which they discontinued. It remains one of my most worn fragrances. Not necessarily because it's one of my favorite scents, but it just seemed to suit every occasion. Grey Vetiver is a handsome versatile fragrance that every man should have in his wardrobe, in my opinion.

I wear Terre D'Hermes and TF Grey Vetiver on a regular basis. I love both so much as they're both so uplifting to wear on all occasions. Both have great lasting power and they make you feel well put together and in control.

It’s lovely - it’s been out over a decade but very very nice. I used to wear this on hot summer days after work having a G&T in London. Would be great for you to make one in time for the summer!

My signature scent. Elegant and versatile. Great video Aaron! Encre Noir by Lalique and Vetiver Tonka by Hermes are great too!

I was on the fence about this one, but you’ve convinced me to give it a go 💯

I totally agree, the soft, creamy vetiver is my favorite. And Tom Ford Grey Vetiver is my favorite in this class. Amazing! I’ll have to try the Guerlain fragrance everyone is suggesting.

Such a Quality review there Aaron. I got a 100ml bottle back in 2013 and I could could still catch a whiff of it 11 hours later after applying the fragrance. Excellent, masculine and versatile to go to the office in during the Spring and Summer or a day scent when you’re out and about

Vetiver can sometimes make scents smell old and dated, but this is clean and fresh with a light citrus open. Looking good there Aaron, bit of a tan going on 👌👌👌❤️

Glad to see this review. This one has been on my radar lately as my next potential purchase. I have samples of this and Terre D'Hermes Eau Intense Vetiver. I did a side by side comparison, and while I like both, I prefer the Tom Ford.

I own alot of tom Fords and I was actually trying the new ombre leather parfum. I sampled the grey vetiver and went full circle and went for that. Sometimes you get overwhelmed with fragrances so when you smell vetiver with its clean fresh herbaceous earthy flavour it's this master of simplicity which grounds you and makes you realise this is why you love perfumery x

Please let us know when you drop your vetiver fragrance, man! Guerlain Vetiver is my favorite. Yes, it’s older and a little rougher. Undoubtedly masculine. Love it.

Dude you are an awesome reviewer!!!! Don’t ever stop doing what you do !!! Stay true t the fragrance game.

It's one of my favorite men fragrances. I gifted it to my husband many years ago and he loved it and finished the whole 100 ml bottle. Amouroud Lunar Vetiver was inspired by TF Grey Vetiver and also a nice one.

Delighted to see a perfumer of Aaron’s quality enjoy TM grey Vetiver so much. It’s my signature scent, makes me feel clean, sharp and professional. Lasts and projects perfectly.

As a caveat to my comment previously, and based purely on your personal opinion on TF GV, I’ve now just purchased a 50ml bottle of the stuff! Thank you Aaron. Looking forward to receiving it tomorrow as I intend to wear it over the weekend while visiting friends in London to see Romesh Ranganathan.. I feel it would be a great scent to wear sitting in such close proximity to other people!

I’ve actually found my TF vertiver lasts longer than my more expensive initio side affect and my parfum de marly Herod, but my baccarat rogue 540 outlasts them all. Always love your reviews Aaron. 👊🏽🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

i think i have never ever commented on your videos, but this is different i LOVE your look (new camera? new lights?) and energy from this video.. and i am straight man lol. KEEP IT UP Aaron

I love this one and your review is absolutely spot on. Guerlain Vetiver is another one of my favourite 👍👍👍

Great review, Aaron. My favorite is Roja's Vetiver - eau de Parfum, Parfum or his Parfum cologne Vetiver. Would be great if you reviewed it.

Oh I can’t wait to try your vetiver fragrance. love Grey Vetiver and I love you Aaron. Such a lovely review. I’m glad you dig the fragrance. You should try Dior Vetiver. Soooo good. Peace and love from Brooklyn.

I thoroughly enjoy Original Vetiver, by Creed. It’s just an extremely uplifting, soapy Vetiver scent that I particularly enjoy wearing on warm spring days. Enjoyed the review. Thank you, Aaron.

I really enjoy Creed’s Original Vetiver!! 1st spray, I was hooked! It smells so fresh and clean. I also adore Mancera’s Vetiver Sensuel. The burst of the citrus, mint, and pepper is mind-blowing!! OMG..The dry down is PARADISE!🤤 Thanks for the vid! Grey Vetiver will be added to my wishlist.

Excellent video. Great energy and knowledge.

I’m here for the hands movements, the best reviewer in my opinion, I can almost smell the scent by the description

A great review Terence. I have to say that you are now my favourite Reviewer, hands down. Such fantastic enthusiasm and insight into how perfumery works, love the waving hands. Keep on doing what you do, and stay well my friend. X By the way, I've just purchased a 100ml of this after putting my nose to this wonderful scent, and I agree with you, it's really quite beautiful.

Hi Aaron, this is one of my favorite TF fragrances! I agree 100% Aaron were you on vacation? Looking tan my friend! Thanks for the video! Creed original Vetiver is nice also.

Your the last person I watch before really committing to a fragrance, thanks for your review once again!

Grey Vetiver is gorgeous and easily and stable in my all time TOP 10 of fragrances. Great you liked it, too. :)

Thanks Aaron for another great review. I really like Lalique Encre noire a l'extreme, also Encre noire sport and Guerlain Vetiver 👍😁

You’re so tan!!! I’m guessing you took a well-deserved Holiday!! I too love this fragrance; it’s wonderful and I wear it all the time. I’ll always have a bottle on hand.

I love it! Invigorating, truly lovely when you get whiffs in the air… it’s a great all rounder, with that touch of class

Grey Vetiver is my clean & pressed white oxford shirt perfume. Sharp but soft. Somewhat quiet and reserved but in a fashionable way. Also great in the summer to just spice things up. I'm not a big fan of vetiver in general as it tends to lean tn the B.O. side on my skin, but there are a few that clean it up into something I can enjoy.

Nice review and very surprising final verdict, Aaron. I was like: OK, the review is going to be spot on (as always), but there is no way this is his type of a scent :D

OMG Aaron loving the new look HOLYYY 🔥🔥🔥

Lovely scent. Also Aaron you look so full of life in the last Videos, good to see you like that

You got tanned Aaron. Hope you've enjoyed such recent sunshine 🌞 Talking about the scent, this one didn't react very well on my skin with a dirty and bitter smell. For Vetiver based fragrances, I prefer Terre d'Hermes

My first TF had in 2011. Always original and for me something to like in spring when the Fougeres feel right. Have many more TFs it's great to see this get such high rating confirmation of quality.

Softer and dryer than Geurlain Vetiver, love both of them. It's a classic TF. Thanks for the review Aaron!

According to Iman, TF Grey Vetiver was David Bowie's favorite scent. I finally found some (it seems to have been discontinued) and I love it. The silver lining is that my search led me to your channel. Thank you so much for your wonderful reviews. Your knowledge and your 'nose' are astounding.

Hi Aaron, Great video.Guerlain Vetiver for me all the way. What a classic!I am 41 years old and Guerlain Vetiver is what I wear to the office when I have meetings. Guerlain Vetiver has an air of class, professionalism and composure. Not sure if you have made a video on Habit Rouge or Vetiver from Guerlain but would love to hear your thoughts. Kind Regards Renoy

One of my older Vetiver fragrances that I loved was L'Occitane Vetyver, but, sadly, it was discontinued. My current favorite Vetiver fragrances are Guerlain Vetiver, Jovoy de Paris' Incident Diplomatique and Private Label (they perfectly encapsulate the different Vetivers of creamy versus earthy), Terre d'Hermès Eau Intense Vetiver, Nishane's Sultan Vetiver, Maison Anthony Marmin's Mukhallat de Medellin and some Indian Khas Attars. Another oriental version of Vetiver I like and is worth trying out is Rasasi's Fattan, which interestingly enough is more expensive than the Guerlain Vetiver.... Also, one perfume created by Natalie Lorson is excellent: Lalique's Encre Noir a l'Extrème - outstanding especially for the price.

Another great review of a truly fantastic fragrance.

Spot on review. Love GV and about to finish off a complete bottle. For the money is a banger. Next review please ATH.

Grey shirt to go with Grey Vetiver! This is a FANTASTIC summer fragrance....the dry down gets sweeter and is excellent, long lasting, and very pleasant to everyone around you. I'm not much for complements but this does generate quite a few of them.

Aaron, I am glad that you love Grey Vetiver from Tom Ford. I own & love the fragrance as well. I love vetiver fragrances & I look forward to your vetiver release. I am sure it will be excellent. I also love 4 other vetiver fragrances. At the high end, I love Haitian Vetiver from Ermenegildo Zegna and Vétiver d'Hiver from Armani Prive. At the low end, but still excellent vetiver fragrances, are Bois de Vetiver from Karl Lagerfeld and Carven Le Vetiver.

Aaron, fantastic review! I enjoy vintage Racine Maitre Parfumeur et Gantier, vintage Chanel 19, Geurlaine Vetiver, Rogue Vetifleur, etc. I’m curious to learn more about your fragrances, will do some searching!

Thanks Aaron because of this review and also because i do not have this one! I now will be purchasing this one tomorrow! When you get excited about a fragrance which i hardly see you be like you are about this Fragrance well that tells me its going to be good...I trust your taste and your nose! I will be buying this tomorrow!

I've been wearing Terre D'Hermes lately. It is a dirty, earthier type of vetiver but I think the orange rounds it off nicely. I find it very endearing.

My favourite. Always hoped you would review this one.

I heard that this was an homage to Guerlain Vetiver, which is a BEAUTIFUL fragrance. You should review some more Guerlain fragrances!

My favorite fragrance. One of the few where I needed a backup bottle. I personally like vetiver, and enjoy some dirtier iterations, but I have my limits (Bentley Wild Vetiver and Nishane Sultan Vetiver are too dirty for me, but I like Encre Noire). However, to be honest, the cleaner herbal/metallic vetiver smell is more pleasant to me (Creed Original Vetiver, TF Grey Vetiver).

Wow, I am a bit surprised that you're liking this fragrance. Love your explanations and such too =) Also, the audio is insane, very clear voice.

I'm in my 20s but I really do enjoy Guerlain Vetiver although for many it smells a bit oldfashioned. Also I really do like the Terre D'Hermes Eau Intense Vetiver flanker. Thank you for featuring Grey Vetiver, which I will try soon.

Can’t wait to hear your thoughts, since you don’t particularly use vetiver often 👍

Love Geurlain Vetiver. Simple, clean, classic, and masculine. Can't beat it.

I didn't like tom ford's gray vetiver at 1st but I'm diggin it now... Super masculine, clean. I noticed you always move your hands ,arms when doing your reviews. I like it . Great review Aaron.

As always, thank you for the fantastic review Aaron! You rated this one so high which makes me wanna try it out myself, as I'm always excited to get great fragrances for an affordable price:) Im wondering though, what's the difference between linear fragrances (that you often find boring) and those that are 'stable and robust'?

I think you would definitely like Hermes Vetiver Tonka.. (if you don’t already ?), it has [to me] that creaminess you mention. I thinks it’s simply a lovely, masculine fragrance, I also have two other vetiver fragrances by Hermès: Terre D’ Hermès (classic!) and the Eau Très Fraîche version. Both are brilliant, both hold beloved memories for me, too. Love them! In fact, I need to check my fragrance collection actually, just see how many vetiver fragrances I really have 🤔 Love your work & Thank You 👍🏼

I'm just starting out, but I got a decant of this recently, and have fallen in love with it. I'd never worn a Vetiver fragrance prior to this, so now I'm exploring. Got a sample of Terre d'Hermes, and am checking that out as well. Have an Encre Noir Sport on the way. I'm discovering that I like Vetivers! Have been rockin' this Tom Ford pretty much every day since I got it! It's a nice one, definitely.

I own one vetiver and I've tried several. The one I own is still my favorite and that's Guerlain Vetiver. Wonderfull classic smell and to me sort of addicting actually. I would really like to try Givenchy Vetyver and Carven Vetiver. Two other classics that originally were launched in the late 50's early 60's.

Vetiver is either love or hate for me and I do love the Tom Ford one and I was really surprised by the performance, I found it exactly like you say. I also really like Guerlain Vetiver which will probably be my next purchase and is a steal for the price!

As I own this fragrance I can say it‘s the best vetiver-based fragrance I tried,along with Terre d‘Hermes EdT.As Ash from Gents Scents said,absolutely fit for a king.

Hi Aaron, besides Grey Vetiver, I like Vetiver Sensuelle (Mancera) very much because it's a bit softer but also radiant and long lasting... Many grtz.

Love Grey Vetiver, although I don't wear it so much these days. I also really love Hermes Intense Vetiver, which is very crisp and clean smelling. For a more creamy/soapy Vetiver, Creeds original Vetiver is lovely.

Ooooooo BOY! I told Chris over at Fragmental you should do a vetiver fragrance!!! I'm so excited! I will be eagerly awaiting that release...You know I tried to get my hands on Smoulder and it sold out so fast and I haven't seen it available anywhere! Do you have any advice? Thank you for another great review! xox

Great review Aaron! I also really enjoy wearing Tom Ford's Grey Vetiver EDT. What concentration are you reviewing, EDT, or EDP? Thank you for the review!

Very Nice Aaron...Love Grey Vetiver Aaron....Love Tom Ford Period!

I actually really like encre noire extreme but that's too bitter for me sometimes and i do apply some oil that i bought before it and it layers with it super suuuuper welll. I actually get your point about vetiver being too dirty. I do prefer a soft more rounder vetiver than a harsh dirty one 😊😊😊 Love the Vids ❤❤❤

This review just makes me wanna go find Grey Vetiver and buy it! Fabulous I like Terre d’hermes and I tried Guerlain Vetiver - really old school smelling and the Vetiver smell in it drives me a bit crazy but then it settles a bit too old lady smelling on my skin!😁

I love the Terre d' Hermès Eau Vetiver Intense. It's very crisp and clean and lemony at the top, and lasts a while. I prefer that ever so slightly to the Tom Ford. And I also love the dark one, Encre Nior from Lalique

For me it smells like a posh hotel soap bar. I really like this when i wanna smell clean and masculine all day long I actually prefer grey vetiver to the Guerlian vetiver but i actually love north Indian pure vetiver oil (ruh khus) which i put on to relax. There is a amazing talk on vetiver by ensar oud and Exotic scents on KZfaq, i highly recommend everyone to watch that if your interested in vetiver.

Bought Essential Parfums - Bois Imperial last week. Reminds me of Grey Vetiver but better! It's niche and cheaper than GV. Only €75 for 100ml in the Netherlands. And it lasts longer. Love your video's!

Aaron, this is the fragrance that got me into the fragrance world. I picked it up in Seoul South Korea while doing mission work. I only owned ADG Profumo and Dior Sauvage at the time, and it made me want to smell everything!! I have a request, please review Zaharoff Signature Pour Homme. I’d love your opinion.

Unfortunately I've been stung too many times with vetiver fragrances that were alegedly amazing. Unfortunately it seems its just not the note for me. Good to see you do a review of it though.

Great summary. Grey Vetiver is really clean, masculine, and subtle. Many recommend it's a "summer" fragrance, but I feel it's great year 'round. Another Vetiver I like is Prada Infusion de Vetiver (it came out around 2012). It has a bit of a "peppery" top note, but on the dry down, it smells like a fresh British grassy meadow. A classic Vetiver everyone would like is "Vetiver" de Guerlain, one of the best -- if not the most prestigious and world renowned -- French perfumers. One can't get more Vetiver than Vetiver de Guerlain!

You look great Aaron, really glowing and healthy.

Hi..Ive had this Grey Vetiver for yrs..its amazing and smells quite "professional" for work...its on point groomed feeling is fine....Another vetiver that i really like is Parfum de Marly Byerley..its dry a bit smokey but not overly so..and the vetiver is wet and is enveloped in a lightly sweet backround..very pleasing and also great for day wear..give it a sniff.......Bob

Ohh! You make it sound so good! How do you think the longevity would compare with Oud Wood? I really dislike how Oud Wood doesn't last on me.

Wow brother u look super laid back in this one, post holiday vibes nice one :)

I like the roja vetiver best. Its like vetivers greatest hits. Soapy, creamy, smokey, earthy. I definitely lean towards the smokey end of vetiver. Cant wait to try your vetiver.

This fragrance is pure class and elegance, there is an element of tranquility to this scent, almost a sobering ambience, it symbolises how a gentleman should be and should smell. Best worn with a suit or smart casual atire. Amazing and one of my all time favourites 😍

My wife bought this for me 3yrs ago. It was love of at first smell. I only have a corner left 😔 Grey vetiver was a bonafide compliment snatcher at my brother in-laws wedding. & I took this to Bali & Phuket Thailand &.... it turned heads & left ppl smiling.

Aaron ur skin is looking great :D

Hi Aaron, Happy New Year…I will like to know your Opinion on Metalique on the future…Nothing But The Best from Brussel 🙏🏻

amazing review! Im torn between Creed Original Vetiver and Tom Ford Grey Vetiver. Would be interested in seeing what you think of the Creed

Where would you recommend for buying natural and aroma chemical materials from for someone wanting to try their hand at homemade fragrances? Thanks Aaron! Love the content!

Grey Vetiver is great, very approachable vetiver. My favourite is Imaginary Authors, Every storm a serenade. It's a vetiver based fragrance with some calone and an ambergris accord (assuming not real but it could be) Very creative as is most of Josh Mayer's work. Would love to see you review some of the imaginary authors line actually!

Hey Aaron, definitely try Vetiver Fatal from Atelier Cologne x

I would love to see you review Prada Amber Pour Homme! ✨

This is definitely my favorite vetiver fragrance. It's simple, clean, green, zesty, and a little bit spicy. My other favorite is Chanel's Sycamore, but it's more in the dirty/earthy camp.

I do love Tom Ford Grey Vetiver but have to say Terre D'Hermes is my favorite having the perfect balance between clean and dirty. It lasts ALL day on my skin as well...

Let him review Ganymede please! Can't wait for it :)
