{"title":"Sand Vetiver","description":"\u003cp\u003eSand vetiver describes a specific terroir within the broader vetiver family: Haitian and Indian vetiver roots grown in sandier soils develop a drier, less smoky, more mineral character than the resinous Java-vetiver standard. The note reads warm, dry, slightly salty, and lasts for the full wear cycle of a composition. Perfumers reach for sand vetiver when a composition needs a vetiver presence without the heavier earth-and-leather profile of conventional Java vetiver. \u003ca href=\"\/products\/amouage-purpose-edp\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAmouage Purpose\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/products\/initio-lift-me-up-extrait-de-parfum\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInitio Lift Me Up\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e both use sand vetiver to anchor lighter compositions.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"amouage-purpose-50-extrait","title":"Amouage Purpose 50 Extrait","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"pc-description\"\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"pc-description-lede\"\u003ePurpose 50 Extrait concentrates the bergamot, frankincense, and rose accord of the EDP while shifting the balance toward the base: akigalawood and sandalwood read earlier and persist longer in this extrait from \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/amouage\"\u003eAmouage\u003c\/a\u003e, for \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/unisex-perfumes\"\u003eanyone\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 class=\"pc-description-heading\"\u003eAbout Amouage Purpose 50 Extrait\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePurpose 50 Extrait delivers Amouage's Purpose at a higher concentration and in a reformulated balance.
