History: Native to South India, Sri Lanka, and Indonesia, Vetiver has a long history of practical, aesthetic, and medicinal use in South and Southeast Asia. In India, Vetiver grass is used to make blinds that cool a house in summer; the blinds are periodically sprayed with water, allowing Vetiver’s signature cooling scent to be released as breezes pass through the woven screens. Since the scent repels insects and rodents as well as promotes restful sleep, it was a natural choice for bedding. Due its incredible chemical stability, Vetiver is an ideal perfume fixative and is used in 90 percent (!) of all Western perfumes and colognes today.
