Description
Very different, yet invitingly familiar, Gendarme – V is a blend of sensual Malaysian grasses with accents of smokey wood but softened with a smooth base of citrus and herbs.
Some people think it’s called “5.” Originally inspired by vetiver, a tall, dense, wild grass with long narrow leaves, the fragrance would have been called “vetiver.” But when it was ready for release, a competitor released a vetiver-style fragrance that was not good at all. So to distance this wonderful scent from that competitor’s flop, a simple name change was made.
