October though it was, the garden was still very sweet with dear, old-fashioned, unworldly flowers and shrubs—sweet may, southern-wood, lemon verbena, alyssum, petunias, marigolds and chrysanthemums. A tiny brick wall, in herring-bone pattern, led from the gate to the front porch. The whole place might have been transplanted from some remote country village; yet there was something about it that made its nearest neighbor, the big lawn-encircled palace of a tobacco king, look exceedingly crude and showy and ill-bred by contrast. As Phil said, it was the difference between being born and being made.

On finding myself there again, surrounded by objects, to each of which belonged some sweet remembrance; and as the scent of "vetiver," Marcelle's favorite perfume, saluted me on entering, the flood of bitterness which had again risen in my heart subsided, and I drew near to Clara's cradle, in which I heard her breathing softly. A moonbeam, penetrating the light drapery, fell round her head in an aureole of glory.

The fragrance of essential oil of Vetiver roots varies considerably from country to country depending upon the many environmental factors that are involved in the growth of the roots, the age at which they are distilled, the technique of distillation etc.
The rootless of an individual vetiver plant are numbered in the hundreds and these absorb from the earth the various qualities of that earth. It is, in short a very intriguing oil.
Vetiver essential oil from Sri Lanka is a dark amber viscous liquid displaying a earthy, mossy, rooty bouquet with a unique sweet floral undertone. The oil has excellent tenacity
Vetiver essential oil from Madagascar is yet darker in color that Sri Lankan sandalwood with a more deep earthy, mossy, rooty bouquet with a a delicate resinous-woody undertone of excellent tenacity
Vetiver essential oil from Haiti is a golden viscous liquid displaying a warm, a balanced sweet, earthy, mossy, rooty bouquet with a fine precious woods undertone of great tenacity
Vetiver essential oil from Haiti is a light amber colored viscous liquid displaying a heavy, earthy, rooty,mossy aroma with a precious woods undertone of fine tenacity
In nautral perfumery it finds extensive use and is include in fougere, chypre, amber bases, incense perfumes, culinary perfumes, Orientaly bases, precious wood notes, sacred perfumes

Treasures of Aromatic Literature-Scent of Sandalwood
Treasures of Aromatic Literature-Scent of Sandalwood
According to popular belief the discovery was made by the celebrated Noor Jehan, the favourite wife of the Emperor Jehangire; but the Emperor himself in his memoirs attributes the discovery, not to Noor Jehan, but to her mother. Although discovered and first made in India, the best attar of roses is now brought from Busrah, in the Persian Gulf. It is brought in small silver flasks of much the shape of a pear and about the size of a small walnut. The mouth of the neck of the flask is securely soldered; but so powerful is the perfume that it escapes through the silver of the flask. When in India I procured at different times three of these flasks. Two of them I have still; one was lost in the Mutiny. When I procured the flasks they were completely filled with the attar; they are now, and have been for years, quite empty. The soldering at the necks of the flasks is as perfect as ever, but the attar has exhaled through the silver of the flasks themselves. The flasks have been kept in a silver box lined with sandalwood; they were put among letters and various small curiosities. Although the attar has evaporated from the flasks, it remains as strong as ever among the letters and curiosities and the sandalwood of the box itself. The sandalwood, however, has imparted to the perfume of the attar a flavour rather oppressive, to our English tastes at least; for it is one which the natives of India greatly admire, and which they much prefer to that of the attar alone. The attar of roses, with which on occasions of ceremony they perfume themselves and their garments, is always mingled with a scent obtained from sandalwood.

"There is but one other spot in the world for me that has just such a sea-breeze as this, and that is Guernsey. It's curious—isn't it ?— how completely we are under the domination of the sense of smell? I never enter your drawing-room, for instance, that I don't feel as if I were ten thousand miles away in Singapore—and all because of that sandalwood fan in that old ivory box. The scent is there, but strangely elusive."
Sanna of the island town
By Mary Ella Waller
"Do you recall anything of your earlier life in Singapore? You spoke of it in connection with the sandalwood fragrance."
"No—" he hesitated. "I can hardly say that I do recall anything; but it would not be untrue to say that some impressions of my life there are very vivid, very lasting." He paused, hoping she might put some leading question; but she was silent.
"For instance," he went on, but almost as if to himself, "that scent of sandal-wood—it always brings back to me my awakening from sleep, and a certain song my nurse used to sing?"
"Do you remember her?"
"No, only the song. I couldn't have been more than two and a half or three. I was with Mere Marliave six years. This was hers, my nurse's."

Patchouli (Pogostemon cablin) essential oil/India, Indonesia, Sri Lanka
Patchouli (Pogostemon cablin) essential oil/India, Indonesia, Sri Lanka
"Smell, like everything else in nature, is produced by vibrations. So is
sound, and light, and taste. Each odor has its particular rate of
vibration. They resemble very much the notes of a musical instrument,
and, as in music, odors can be harmonized, or they may be so mixed
together as to produce discord. Some perfumes, when used on the
handkerchief, and are about to fade away, have a sickly and disagreeable
odor. This is due to the admixture of the wrong or discordant tones.
Thus, heliotrope, vanilla, orange blossom and almond blend together;
citron, lemon, vervain and orange peel belong together, but they produce
a stronger impression on the sense of smell, and are of a higher octave;
and so with a still higher class, as patchouly, sandal-wood and
vitavert."

Petitgrain bigarade (Citrus aurantium var. amara) essential oil/Paraquay
Some plants yield more than one odor, which are quite distinct and characteristic. The orange tree, for instance, gives three—from the leaves one called petit grain; from the flowers we procure neroli; and from the rind of the fruit, essential oil of orange, essence of Portugal. On this account, perhaps, this tree is the most valuable of all to the operative perfumer.
