I love vetiver, and I love TF fragrances but this is underwhelming. It's like Vetiver by Guerlain watered down with the most recent, under-performing formulations of Bleu de Chanel EDP, then watered down some more. It's not a bad scent, but it's too bland, and there are many other, better, vetivers out there for a lot less. Update: it gets better in the dry down, very creamy, and stronger and more persistent than I expected.
This is very nice...a nice vetiver with notes that compliment it and allow it to take centre stage. Only tried a sample but very tasty indeed, I think I might even prefer this woody little number to Jo Malone vetiver which I love. Tom Ford fragrances are often accused of being over priced and that might be true as I can't say I'm keen on many of them...this one however is certainly worth a sniff. Update: Well after really giving Grey Vetiver a good trial I can honestly say it has a real aspect I like....dimentions...true depth, you can smell deeper and get something different from the initial soapy scent. It is MEGA soapy, it's well composed as are all TF fragrances but for me there's better citrus/woody combos. I also have to clarify what I said above by saying that I've enjoyed much of the Tom Ford collection (I'm yet to sample many of the private collection) I find them to be excellent but they lack strength. I'm not somebody who likes heavy projection or choking others but they really are very short lived and subtle, they do however make your clothes smell lovely for ages, if only they lasted on my skin. To be fair to Grey vetiver it has better longevity than TF for Men and Noir I'm so tempted by extreme as that is my favourite from the for him range but I fear that will suffer the same weakness.
