Vetiveryl Acetate (and related Vetiver Acetate) is one of the most popular zizanoides products which is frequently blended with fine vetiver oils for a softening effect or used on its own as a fresh, long lasting and clean vetiver note. There are two types of the acetate: Vetiver Acetate and Vetiveryl Acetate. The first is produced from Vetiverol (a mix of vetiver alcohols) which is extracted from the Vetiver roots prior to the acetylation process. The second, Vetiveryl acetate (this product) is produced by direct acetylation of the whole Vetiver essential oil and contains accessory molecules so it has a slightly less restrictive IFRA limit and a more complex and slightly more metallic dry down. It is also lower in price. While Vetiver Acetate (acetylated Vetiverol) is more popular due to being cleaner in the dry down, this wonderful Vetiveryl Acetate 20326 should not be overlooked. It blends particularly well with Orris materials and can be used anywhere Vetiver Acetate is used. We also stock Vetiver Acetate from V Mane Fils. Used in: Chanel No 19, Poison, Ma Griffe and Dior Homme.
