Sultan Vetiver vs Layton

Sultan Vetiver is deeply divisive within the community, with some finding it a pleasant greenhouse-like green vetiver while others find it aggressively chemical and unpleasant. The fragrance exemplifies Nishane's polarizing house style of heavy, strident compositions that require sampling before purchase. Personal chemistry and initial expectations seem to significantly impact whether wearers eventually enjoy or reject it.

Layton is a well-crafted, versatile fragrance with strong performance that genuinely appeals to many in the community, but it remains highly divisive due to its premium $285 price tag that many feel is unjustified compared to cheaper alternatives like Spicebomb Extreme. The scent requires sampling before purchase as it's a polarizing fragrance that either wins people over gradually or disappoints them entirely.
