    It seems you're expecting a lot of information. For free! And this is what upsets me!

    It is, either from my bathroom or on Amazon.it and I cannot retrieve it from .com.
    But i am quite clumsy in searching...

    It is not sweet at all, quite earthy.
    To give you an idea I cannot stand the Guerlain.
    Its cost is much lower than the famed French colleague, but, IMNSHO, much better!
    I have 2 different vetivers: thew other one is from a small shop in Rome. Exceptional. Very different though...

    I believe the AS is not worth its cost: fragrance is identical, but not up to my preferred AS, either alcoholic or balm.

    Should you us Skype, I might try to spray some on the mike...

    Hope it's been of (free) help!
