Reports disagree about the extent or effects of changes to Vétiver Eau de Toilette.

Most bottle comparisons describe a similar scent and equal or longer wear, while a smaller group prefers the richness of older bottles. Recorded ingredient identifiers span several presentations; the square bottle initially retained its predecessor's identifier. These records do not measure sensory change.

A batch code alone does not establish which formula is in a bottle.

If you need to check a particular bottle, ask Guerlain or the retailer about its batch code and product details. Comparisons between bottles are not confirmation from the manufacturer.
