Key Botanical

Vetiver

Vetiver is a tall, clumping aromatic grass traditionally associated with India and tropical regions. Unlike many essential oils that are obtained from flowers or leaves, Vetiver Oil is produced from the plant's extensive root system.

The roots are carefully harvested and steam distilled to produce a thick, richly aromatic essential oil with a distinctive earthy, woody and slightly smoky character.

Its complex fragrance has made Vetiver an important ingredient in fine perfumery, particularly as a long-lasting base note.
