The community consensus is decidedly positive, viewing Guerlain Vetiver as a complex, iconic classic with excellent depth and character that distinguishes it from modern vetivers. However, its animalic, earthy qualities and old-fashioned character make it challenging for newcomers and those seeking contemporary fragrances, requiring patience and multiple wears to fully appreciate.

The r/fragrance community views Grey Vetiver EDP as a solid, well-made fresh fragrance that balances citrus and green vetiver notes effectively. Most users praise it as a reliable daily wear option, though some note performance limitations and find the drydown sharp. The newer Parfum flanker receives mixed reactions, with many considering it unnecessary and too similar to the original EDP.
