Where it differs: Malizia is more aggressively green and soapy, like old Italian shaving cream, so it reads closer to vintage Guerlain than the cleaner modern bottle and lacks its tobacco-tonka warmth.

Buy Vetiver ifyou want the polished citrus, nutmeg and soft tobacco finish.
Buy Uomo Vetyver ifyou want a soapy barbershop vetiver for a few dollars.

Where it differs: Fattan hits with a much louder grapefruit, vetiver and oakmoss blast and sits closer to Terre d'Hermès, so it is brighter, fruitier and dirtier than Guerlain's restrained vetiver.

Buy Vetiver ifyou want a quiet, elegant vetiver suited to an office.
Buy Fattan pour Homme ifyou want earthy grapefruit-vetiver with far stronger performance.

Where it differs: Encre Noire is the darker, smokier, nuttier take on vetiver with a leathery edge, so it skips Guerlain's citrus, nutmeg and clean shaving-soap freshness entirely.

Buy Vetiver ifyou want a bright, clean citrus vetiver for daytime.
Buy Encre Noire ifyou want an inky, smoky vetiver for very little money.
