Desert Vetiver
Saponificio Varesino
Saponoficio Varesino was established in 1945 by Dante Bardelli in the small town of Brebbia (Varese) near the shores of Lago Maggiore in Italy. It is considered a premium brand among shave soaps and reknowned for its luxurious soap base and sophisticated fragrances, many of which are inspired by popular men's colognes. The brand has grown in to multiple product lines including Shaving Products, which includes a line of artisan razors and brushes, and Bath and Body Products, which include Bar Soaps, Liquid Soaps, Shampoos and Shower Gels.
Scent Description
Desert Vetiver is inspired by Terre D'Hermes Eau Intense Vetiver. Like the name says, it's intense. The scent is fresh and fruity, with a grassy, lemon-lime bouquet which is both zesty and peppery, mature and complex. The overall effect is a sweet, natural, freshness, but the intensity is such that at times it can lean a little towards air-freshener, as in the type you might use in a room or hotel lobby. It's very classy, very fresh, and they weren't kidding about being intense.
