Crisp Woody Citrus Elegance: Tom Ford Grey Vetiver Eau de Parfum
Experience the timeless sophistication of refined masculinity in Tom Ford Grey Vetiver Eau de Parfum, the 2009 launch that redefined vetiver with polished, charismatic depth (masculine with unisex leanings, woody spicy leanings, fresh aromatic sophistication)—crafted by Harry Fremont to fuse sun-drenched citrus brightness, spicy nutmeg-pimento warmth, and an elegant heart of natural vetiver superbly blended with prized woods and oakmoss for a debonair, provocative aura.
This distinguished elixir opens with a sparkling, invigorating surge of grapefruit, orange blossom, and sage for citrus-herbal lift that's fresh and luminous, then evolves into a heart of nutmeg, orris root, and pimento for warm spicy richness with powdery iris nuance and subtle peppery edge, finally anchoring in a base of vetiver, woodsy notes, oakmoss, and amber for earthy vetiver intensity, mossy classic fougère depth, and warm amber grounding. It's citrusy yet woody, fresh yet spicy, clean yet grounded—like grapefruit zest over sage-lavender fields laced with nutmeg spice, anchored in vetiver-oakmoss amber that radiates quiet confidence and timeless allure.
It bursts with grapefruit-orange blossom-sage—citrus-bright, herbal, and strikingly fresh with aromatic tang. The heart unveils nutmeg-orris-pimento, delivering a spicy, powdery core that's warm, refined, and captivating. It lingers in a luxurious vetiver-oakmoss-amber embrace—earthy, mossy, and subtly addictive—crafting a potent, sophisticated trail that's masculine, polished, and endlessly versatile.

Frequently praised as a cornerstone in the Tom Ford lineup—vetiver-earthy dominant woody, grapefruit-citrus fresh, nutmeg-spicy iconic, with a strikingly clean yet charismatic vibe—this 2009 masterpiece is often described as a "modern vetiver classic," polished and versatile, blending sunny citrus with aromatic herbs, rich spices, and comforting woods. It's a season-spanning staple (ideal for spring/summer daytime elegance or year-round wear, perfect for office sophistication, evenings out, or confident presence) that garners compliments with its strong projection, excellent sillage, and magnetic masculine pull.
Performance excels as an Eau de Parfum: 8-10+ hours longevity (evolves beautifully from citrus burst to earthy vetiver-amber finish), strong yet controlled projection (generous trail that's bold without overwhelming), and impressive staying power—settling into a lingering, skin-like refinement. Fans rave about its premium quality, masterful vetiver-citrus synergy, and effortless sophistication, though some note the prominent nutmeg spice—perfect for those craving elevated vetivers with citrus flair, aromatic herbs, and woody depth.
