Tom Ford
Grey Vetiver Parfum
Thomas Carlyle Ford is a Texas-born designer who was born in 1961 and studied in various fields such as art and architecture. Ultimately, it was with his couture creations that he made a name for himself in the world of luxury. Since 2005, Tom Ford has owned his own brand. A symbol of elegance around the world, he also creates fragrances in keeping with his extraordinary sense of refinement. Grey Vetiver was thus first conceived in 2009, before becoming a lighter Eau de Toilette in 2014, and then a more powerful juice in 2023: Grey Vetiver Parfum.
Where to buy
Elegance according to Tom Ford
Grey Vetiver Parfum by Tom Ford is the very embodiment of elegance. It must be said that the house has always positioned itself as a brand designed for simple men, endowed with innate charisma and refinement. It is precisely this DNA that is found in this creation. Grey Vetiver Parfum by Tom Ford draws on couture and on the impeccable style of Tom Ford. This masculine essence is designed for a modern-day gentleman. Of course, it inevitably evokes its previous version. Nevertheless, this edition is even deeper, more persistent and more sensual. As the designer puts it so well, Grey Vetiver Parfum captures the essence of masculinity, charismatic and provocative.
Grey Vetiver Parfum, Tom Ford's essential bottle covered in silver
Grey Vetiver Parfum by Tom Ford comes in the usual bottle of this collection. Its instantly recognizable silhouette therefore remains unchanged. With its imposing base, rounded shoulders and cap, this bottle seems to have come straight out of an apothecary shop. One might almost believe that its dosage is measured out using a dropper connected to a flexible stopper. A square plate sits on its front face. This time, to embody the refinement and elegance of this fragrance, the bottle has been entirely lacquered in gray. This color is, after all, simply inseparable from the house of Tom Ford. Very present in the brand's clothing and stores, it reveals both a timeless and a highly refined side. Grey Vetiver Parfum by Tom Ford is available in sizes of 50 or 100 ml.
Grey Vetiver Parfum, a warm, floral and spicy creation
Grey Vetiver Parfum by Tom Ford is built, as its name suggests, around vetiver. This is, after all, one of the most widely used ingredients in men's fragrances. This raw material is immediately identifiable by its earthy, woody blend. Note, however, that the woody facet now takes precedence over the more vegetal, almost grassy side. To achieve this result, Tom Ford combined three different varieties of vetiver, all obtained through sustainable production methods. For an even more prestigious and fiery character, Grey Vetiver Parfum by Tom Ford also contains the most expensive spice in the world: saffron. Finally, orange blossom lights up this essence with its sun-kissed breath.

The campaign is fronted by model Akbar Shamji, already the face of the brand's spring-summer 2023 campaign before this fragrance advertisement. The styling plays on tailoring: a black suit jacket, a gray shirt, a silver tie, echoing the bottle.
