Nishane Sultan Vetiver Extrait De Parfum

Nishane Sultan Vetiver Extrait De Parfum was launched in 2013 and composed by perfumer Jorge Lee. This extrait de parfum belongs to the amber woody family and is a regal homage to the complexity and elegance of vetiver. By integrating four types of vetiver from Java, Haiti, Bourbon, and Brazil, Sultan Vetiver presents a multi-dimensional olfactory journey that is earthy, smoky, and refined. It is a sophisticated scent that honors traditional vetiver while bringing forward a contemporary richness.

The fragrance opens with a bold introduction of Java vetiver oil, absinthe, pink pepper (Schinus molle), and bergamot. Java vetiver dominates the opening with its assertive smoky-green profile, immediately setting a grounded and intense tone. Absinthe adds an herbal sharpness, bitter and slightly anise-like, which contrasts beautifully with the soft piquancy of pink pepper. Bergamot injects a fleeting burst of citrus freshness, keeping the top airy and clean before the vetiver heart takes center stage.

The heart features an earthy fusion of Bourbon vetiver, Haitian vetiver, neroli, and tonka bean. The Bourbon vetiver brings a sweet, slightly resinous woodiness, while Haitian vetiver adds a dry, grassy depth. Neroli introduces a soft floral element, lending balance and brightness to the composition. Tonka bean rounds out the heart with a creamy sweetness and smooth warmth that tempers the sharpness of the vetiver oils.

In the base, Brazilian vetiver continues the vetiver narrative with a more subdued, woody-earthy tone. Amberwood adds a glowing resinous quality, amplifying the fragrance’s richness and longevity. Leather brings a smoky, animalic nuance to the drydown, leaving a sensual, rugged impression that lingers beautifully on skin.
