- Do I hate Dior Sauvage?
Well, no. I don't love it either, but I cannot say that it is an objectively terrible fragrance.
I like it. It's fine.
But it's not simply its scent that has affected its status in Frag Comm--it is the way it is talked about and used. If you have watched a single video talking about Dior Sauvage is, then you've seen what I'm talking about.
Nonetheless, I thought it would be fun to revisit my initial review of this fragrance from October of 2016...how did past Justin feel about Dior Sauvage, and how does current Justin feel about it now?

Neat to see you come back to this. I'm at about 110 bottles of niche and designer and this is still in my top 5 bottles. Not because I think it's the best at any one thing, but because it is good at everything. I imagine this would be considered my white t-shirt or run errands scent. When I want to feel nice after a shower I may spray it on before bed. I agree that this is a scent that did nothing wrong on it's own, yet it's a victim of its own success. I'm in the midwest and it's rare to run into anyone who collects fragrance, so this still holds some magic in public.
Well said
I live in Salt Lake. In 3 years in living here I haven’t smell a fragrance on a single guy! Rarely on women.
I live about 30 minutes south of salt lake. I have never smelled sauvage or any of the main fragrances on anyone other than me. Nobody wears anything around here it seems
would you like to share your others picks ?
I honestly don't smell this on many people. I enjoy wearing it. I get compliments and that's all that matters
Hmm…why is that all that matters?
@@stayfreshproductions cuz that's the reason why we buy fragrances. If you're alone in the world, there's no need for you to smell so good. You'll just enjoy nature and hygiene in general. We are social creatures. You found out someone could smell really good when you were young. You appreciated that. Some would like it so much to the point they'd give compliments. We don't naturally have Sauvage scent as we were born. All these signature scents are there to impress other people, therefore to get compliments.
It’s probably different if you only care about impressing your significant other, but yes we do like to smell nice for other people to notice :)
@@nightwng I personally always pray cologne on myself while im at home as well. I just love smelling things, doesnt matter whether im putting on a show for other people or not.
@@DictionaryBulletBillSame. My love for fragrances started with incense sticks long time ago, now I'm into cologne
Sauvage brought me into the world of fragance collecting. I just loved the scent at first sniff, and my scent journey started. Still love it even though I have several more niche and designer fragances. I sometimes spray my office with it just because I like it.
Same here
Same here too
I never fell out of love with Suavage just revisit it every once a while. Dior did exactly the same thing to Suavage as they did with Fahrenheit. It became a powerhouse classic to the generation it was target to. Great juice! Both of them. We all gonna fall out of love with popular frags. Dior just makes the best designers that get revisited and hyped as time goes.
A lot of beauty shop aren't putting too many fragrances on display because of people looting and stealing them
That's the case in my town. About half the testers were gone and they no longer carry the scents out on the floor. It's like shoe shopping now. They go get your box out the back.
And half the testers there were friggin gone.
thats sad
Yeah, went out to get some recently, even the testers were locked up behind security glass. You had to go and flag down a member of staff to open it if you wanted to try/buy any of them. Seems we can't have nice things in this day and age anymore since some little shits will ruin it for the rest of us!!!
I have the EDP I bought during my fragrance journey eventhough I resisted buying in the first place. I remember smelling it at Sephora and l liked how it smelled but I didn't buy it tho. Months later I received a Sephora gift card and I ended up buying a bottle. I wear this as my dumb reach when I can't decide what to wear. It's definitely compliment getter everytime I wear it. IMO it just works. The whole Sauvage line just works and will stand the test of time.
sauvage is mostly hated by RUclipsrs and snobs, loved by women , love it or hate it it works…..
Well, I have an EDP version and I like it and find it a classic men's fragrance. It doesn't blow me away like some other fragrances have done but it just works. If I have been using some heavier, darker and sweeter fragrances with, tobacco, vanilla, booze etc. I very much enjoy using Sauvage (or a similar fresh fragrance) to kind of 'reset'. I certainly think it has its job to do and does so well.
Exactly !
Have you tried the parfum ?
@@ivantrudeau8974 No, not yet.
@@ivantrudeau8974 I have the parfum and it’s solid. Definitely different than the EDT, but solid. I just wore it again Saturday evening (formal event) and was very pleased with it.
@@Cromwell142 I tried the EDP 3 months ago. I have the Parfum. Going to try the EDP & Parfum then make a decision.🤔
It was so funny to see how different your thoughts were back then vs now when it comes to compliments and stuff like that 😅 that was great! Haha
As a guy who loves his old school barbershop fougeres, I could care less if I ever received one compliment. Floris Elite and 89 are my go too. I wear them because they are well blended and elegant, gentlemanly fragrances. The idea of wearing a fragrance simply for compliments, etc. is only gonna lead you down a road of dissapointment, especially if you come from the midwest where most folks are just minding their own business 😅
Exactly 😆
the way I perceive the scent on my own skin (and maybe on the clothes I wear, too), the pleasant or uplifting feeling I get from it, that's what I enjoy and appreciate about the fragrances I wear.
Hi Justin loved your video 👍🏻 I am a die hard fan of the original eau Sauvage which was released in 1966 before your time I know lol anyway I thought I would try a bottle to see what all the hype was about . I bought 100 mil edt version . I do Salsa dancing which as you know is a close up dance & the compliments I got was amazing . I am a young 73 year old & love the way it smells & how long it lasts , I could still smell it the next day & I only put on 4 sprays . You just got a new sub 👍🏻
Love this! And I appreciate you!
Out of my collection of 50 frags, Dior Homme 2020 is by far my most worn and its because it makes me feel good wearing it. I no longer need a loud, compliment monster like I sought when I first started my collection so I think it definitely is a trend as you become more experienced, you also care less what other people think.
Great Topics, I love how we change our mind, or point of view along our scent journey.
Sauvage Elixir is the flanker that I love to wear, and Luna Rossa Carbon one of my office scents rather than Sauvage EDT.
Best Regards
I really enjoy the original concept of the revisiting theme, it's fresh . Thanks Justin 👍🏼
Thank you!
Myself, I have no problems with Sauvage in itself. All the opposite, if it ends up rousing the passion for fragrances in some people or serves as a stepping stone into looking into some other lesser known choices, I feel it has its place. For me personally, ambroxan in itself isn't the issue but just the peppery, stingy astringency mixed with the ambrox of the EDT is just not moving me. Elixir is definitely better however at that prince point I'll pass since I can get niche things I would rather wear. That said, as someone who generally loathes Summer and "freshies" and who loves Winter and dark, heavy fragrances, I think it's just a matter of preference. I still respect Sauvage for what it is, I'm not like "ewww Sauvage, that's for plebs" like some elitists do, that's not my style.
I love the old intro music. Positive energy. It's great that you're coming back to your old videos.
Hello Justin. I really enjoy your videos. I would like to see your take on Acqua di Parma fragrances. I own Colonia Pura and it’s one of my favorites for spring. A review of the brand from your perspective would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for all your work and keep it up.
Another great video! Savage is going down the path of a Drakkar Noir, Cool Water and Aqua Di Gio. An easy to wear fragrance that is mass appealing. I wear the edt as a mindless grab and go where I know I am going to be in a crowded situation. It is not everyone cup of tea, especially for those who like to smell unique, but I have yet to find someone who thinks it just stinks. 😊👍
So I don’t own the EDT, but the EDP of Dior Sauvage is actually what got me into fragrances. I was gifted the fragrance two years ago before knowing anything about it as a 23 year old, and immediately loved the DNA. Before that point, I had Dolce and Gobanna light blue as my signature and it was my first foray into “modern” perfumery. I personally love the bergamot opening and sharp metallic finish, characteristic of a Dior fragrance. My experience with that fragrance was the catalyst to try other masterpieces like Oud wood, Dior Homme Intense, Ganymeade, Layton etc.
In general, I am a person that does something becuase I want to do it, rather than for others. I don’t mind compliments in certain settings (my girlfriend, mom, close friends) but I don’t go into fragrances with the mindset of “getting something for compliments”. I’d buy something if I enjoy the way it smells and have a practical use for it. I see how you could get a negative perception about this fragrance because of the way it’s presented in the frag comm. like I said I love the DNA and smell and it’s still my signature, but even know I sometimes don’t reach for it because it is actually too strong and projecting even with two sprays.
For me its simple. I wear it because i like it (thats why i have almost only EDP/Parfum bottles). Would feel pretty wierd to spend money for others noses. My favourite spot to spray is chest. Because then you can lift the shirt later in the day and take a quick whiff
Another great content Justin, I did use to own to have the EDP version of Sauvage, I'm restarting my collection, I gave all my fragrance collection to a friend so anyways have a great blessed wonderful positive productive and safe weekend
Take care, Ernest!
I have that same 30ml bottle displayed in the video. When my love for fragrances was rekindled back in late 2021, I ordered that little bottle and loved it at first sniff. I still really like it a lot, but it doesn't blow me away since I have gotten my nose on lots of stuff since then.
I appreciate the versatility that it provides and it will thoroughly enjoy the half ounce I have left until it is gone.
My guy had that Happy Gilmore Chubbs vibe, love it
Man, I read this comment right when the old review started playing. I hollered😂
This was a great visit and re-vision of yourself and the review. That hat though and your face looked so innocent and young in the game 😆. Good stuff.
Thank you!
Your original Sauvage video is what brought me to your channel. I'd say its a modern masterpiece for sure. It's almost been 10 years and it's still relevant today. Keep doing your thing bro !
Wow, thank you!
I still Rock The Elixir Justin, and The Parfum I just ran out of it. So I have to pick up another Bottle of that today as we speak. Great Video Brother as always, Peace.......🤝🏾🇺🇲💪🏾👍🏾
Cool video! I find it fun when youtubers react to their old videos.
Personally, I don't like Sauvage and have never liked it. The drydown is pleasant, basic but pleasant - but first hour or so there's a sharp smell, not even talking about the fragrance itself but how my nose FEELS when i smell Sauvage. There's this sharpness that kinda burns my nose and I hate it.
Your videos are amazing i must say, i like the style. You are my favourite frag-tuber! :)
Thank you!
Suavage got me back into collecting frags !! It’s a great fragrance sure you smell it hear and there but trust me it’s a show stopper when worn correctly!
@@daniell5740 indeed when you put on 10 spraysz!!! FAN
Man I used to love your background music. Iconic
I recall trying it I think maybe 2017? Early on everyone thought it was amazing. I just remember it giving me a raging headache. I bought it as a gift for a friend who thanked me profusely. He wasn’t into wearing fragrances but said his wife and colleagues complimented him endlessly. Maybe I should try it again but I don’t really gravitate to these scents anymore.
Just bought a new 200ml bottle,it is reformulated and lasts 4-5 hours only but it still smells great.
I am somewhat newer to the fragrance hobby, and while my tastes have definitely changed to enjoy more mature scents like fougeres and vetivers, I have always loved Sauvage. I first tried it as a decant and just fell in love with it. I don’t wear it as frequently as I once did, and it does seem like it is everywhere, but I find myself just smelling it in collection very frequently. Definitely iconic at the least, it not a masterpiece.
I’ve always loved to wear colognes, but it was a self imposed three. Aramis, Polo green and Drakkar. I’m 55 and I know they’re dated but still like them. About a year ago I started to branch out. My first pickup was Aqua DI Gio . I bought a few freshies before i found reviewers like Justin, Darrien and Ash. I have to say that I like the darker scents so much more. They to be more interesting. Now I am pretty much buying niche, especially Amouage and Argos. Absolutely love the complexity of niche houses.
Nice to see Justin slightly trolling Justin 😂 I currently wear Prada Luna Rossa Carbon but I can't say it's better, I love the Edt and I probably always will - for the same reasons, it reminds me of good times, let's call it nostalgia. Our of all Sauvages I do prefer the Elixir the most, I even wore it last summer in some cooler evenings - 1 spray only - and it was magnificent. Respect for the OG though. Thanks for reminnding me of the good ol'times, bring more of these. Peace.
😊
Bought the 100ml Eau De Parfum back in December and I’m almost finished with the bottle. One of the best fragrances I ever had, fits every situation, time and gets compliments every day. I never understood the hate.
Is the performance still good on the newer botlles edp?
Nice content Justin. I lost interest in this genre about 4 years ago. However, I always preferred Dylan Blue and BDC over Sauvage which I found very cloying. Great video👍🏾
Thank you for watching!
Enjoyed this video Justin excellent content as always. I remember watching that video way back when. Oh how we've all grown and evolved.
Thank you!!
Lmao that music in the old videos, haha but you’ve come along way man. But glad you like when the rain stops, probably one of my favs from maison margiela
great video Justin, I think Sauvage is nice I personally love the EDP. It smells lovely it's one I just haven't brought myself to pull the trigger on, it's just a lil pricey for what it is ✌🏼
Personally, I like the Edp the best. I bought the 200ml bottle and still wear it occasionally...the vanilla is what really got me. I absolutely love vanilla fragrances. I have Prada LR Carbon, which has a much better price point, so I never bought the full presentation of the edt. I have had a few samples that did almost convince me to buy the full presentation, but Prada won out. All in all, I would say that it is the GIT/Cool Water of this generation, and that puts it in the legendary/masterpiece category, IMHO. Anyways, your videos are always original, and that's why I keep coming back. Really enjoyed the re-review. Keep up the great work!!!
I used to hate Dior Sauvage and didn't understand the hype, untill I sprayed it one day on my sleeve and kept smelling that intoxicating sillage during the day which is when I started to understand why it's so loved. The magic lies in it's sillage and it's one of the best dumb reach fragrances out there that gathers compliments left and right. It had fallen victim to its success since everyone is wearing it, but I don't really care since I have enough different fragrances to wear if I want to smell unique.
Ok, I'm back. I haven't watched any videos since you posted the original video. I purchased 100 bottles of the EDT. Did they discontinue it? I figured they might cause you said to get it before the price goes up...😂😂😂
I definitely like your new approach compared to your old approach. Long story short, I tried DS EDT almost a year ago now, long after the hype train had left the station. And it was nice, shower gel fresh on me. I did get a compliment, but it was from a subordinate at work trying to climb the ladder. However, I liked Bleu De Chanel better and bought a full bottle of that instead. Months later my buddy asked me for a recommendation of a mass appeal frag. He was wearing 1 million and some coworker of his told him he smelled like crap 🤣 So I recommended Dior Sauvage. When I smell it on him, it's a sharp strong cinnamon type spice. I actually enjoy it enough that it made me want to try it again. So I do not care about what current trend we're in, if I enjoy the scent, I'm going to wear it.
If you're smelling cinnamon, he screwed up and bought the edp lol.
@@PlagueKing_LordFalix 🤣🤣🤣
Sauvage is the poster child for a "dumb reach" fragrance. I still wear it (the EDT) and enjoy it as much as when I first bought it about 4-5 years ago. It's pretty much one of my "running a couple errands today" fragrances or just something I throw on when I don't want to be fancy but still want to smell nice.
I have all of the sauvages and I like them. I wear anyone depending on how I feel. It's not going to be offensive to anyone so I wear it when I feel like it. I have over 600 bottles of fragrances, niche, indie, designers and a few clones. I appreciate the artistry of all the fragrances. Great video... as always.
Thank you!
Which Sauvage do you prefer? I'm leaning towards the EDP although I like the parfum.
I’ve owned Sauvage from day one. My current version is the EDP and I still love it despite the love and hate.
I still like the Dior "Sauvage" line, especially the Parfum flanker, and the EDT (and most likely the EDP too) is in second place. I can like "Sauvage Elixir", but it is my least favorite out of those four. I haven't tried the EDP, but I know I'd like it. Which one is Prada "Luna Rossa Carbon" more similar to: "Sauvage EDT" or "Sauvage EDP"?
Carbon is more similar to the EDT!
@@stayfreshproductions Thank you!
unfortunately it has been reformulated to a soapy kind of scent, so if you buy a bottle, you’ll have to buy a batch from 2017 or before. the release of a new flanker usually means reformulations of the flankers before, other brands do the same (i. e. YSL with their Y line). dior is even known to not change the formula code when watering down their stuff (i. e. Homme Intense and Sauvage of course ).
^ Baseless conspiracies
@@SteveHubbardGuitar whut? Are you really not able to get your hands on different batches?
13:38 Justin in his “what the ladies say determines what I spray” era 😂😂😂
😆
Dr Copeland, for me, honestly, the smell of Dior Savage will never go out of style, because it is a super addictive smell. I have noticed that fragrances that contain Ambroxan are super sexy. I'm still looking forward to the video of you reacting to the Another 13 fragrance.
I still wear this. I have a 100ML bottle from 2017, and i love giving it a good 2-3 sprays and enjoy my day! It's so popular for a reason.. And you love it, or hate it. But i love it🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥I also like the edp! But haven't smelled the Parfum yet.
I think all the iterations smell good. The Elixir is my favorite and the only one I have now. If I were to buy one of the other 3 I would get the EDP. I had that before and I think it's the most balanced
How about the parfum ?
the elixir is the only one i like, to me it smells significantly different than the flankers
@@ivantrudeau8974 it's ok. Surprisingly weak in my experience. It has more vanilla though, just doesn't project well. The EDP kinda gives you the best of both worlds depending on what you are looking for. It has the same type of performance of the EDT, but also has that nice sweetness like the Parfum.
@@Jake-dc8yx absolutely I agree. Definitely the most unique. Has an old world flare with a modern updated feel.
What I love about it is that you learn to wear the fragrance and not the fragrance wear you! What do I mean by that! First few times I wore it I doused myself in it as I got more experience w it you learn 1 1/2 max 2 sprays is all you need. ppls reaction as well as mine just brings a smile a warm smile to everyone who comes in contact w it I still ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT ❤ AND IT WILL BE IN MY ROTATION TIL I MOVE ON TO THE SPIRITUAL WORLD!!! Peace ✌️ Justin
Personally I do like the scent and the fact that this frag has gotten me the most compliments certainly also helps. Additionally, I dont smell it on others as often as people make it out to be
I’m glad you personally like the scent
Idk if you remember this, but you actually talked me outta of a bottle of sauvage and put me on the lhomme line at nordstrom a few years back. Still rocking with lhomme and on my third bottle now 😂
Nice! Glad you’re digging it.
I own both a 2017 formulation and a 2023 formulation. The older formulation has more of a peppery smell while the newer one has more of a fresher scent but not as long lasting as the older batch. Performance is still 8 hours but my olderr bottle was easily 10+ hours
It is quite simply masculine, fresh and invigorating. It's like wearing it can bring about some kind of primal urge to kick the day in the ass. I prefer it's slight sharp texture over the more common powdery or creamy textures of popular alternatives. I feel it also mixes well with people's natural smell, and so lends a touch of uniqueness to each wearer.
I have more than 50 fragrances including creed , serge lutens , histories de parfum , really pro positive brands but sauvage EDT. It’s my fav fragrance ever , it’s so addicting and appealing, i enjoy wearing it , a truly masterpiece
I remember testing a sample of it, not long after Chanel released Bleu de Chanel EDP. My first reaction was, this is a clone.
However later on a second test, I concluded that it was for sure a take on Bleu de Chanel, but a middle of the road between the EDT and the EDP. But not as civilized as both of them, nor that close to be a clone. A louder (in the face)long lasting version of the Chanels and I knew it would be appealing, specially for younger people.
Since Bleu de Chanel EDT as been one of my favorite Summer fragrances for many years, but one with moderate projection and longevity. I mainly use it around the house. The EDP misses the joyful zesty factor I love so much for days wearing, so I use it for Summer evenings.
1 or 2 years years later I bought Eau Sauvage, with the idea to use it on Holidays, mainly for long hiking tours. As it will last 8 hours easily. In the end I only took it with me once on vacation, because I get tired of the scent pretty fast (1-2 hours).
For example I prefer Bvlgary Acqua Amara, or D&B Light Blue PH, for very much the same purpose.
In terms of compliments from strangers, I don't count friends and family, I only got a compliment for Bleu de Chanel le Parfum!
From a young lady behind a counter at least 2 meters away from me. It was 30 minutes after testing it on my wrist, the day it arrived in a local store. just 2 sprays one on each back hand.
I do agree. Sure wanting to wear a fragrance to have it last long and make people compliment you is fine. But that’s not what the main purpose should be. It should be, you’re wearing it because you like the smell, it becomes your favorite and you know it makes you feel good to wear when you’re going out or whatever it is you’re doing. Don’t just simply wear it to impress others. But if you want a fragrance that stands out more and isn’t overplayed. Then Sauvage isn’t for you. At least the original EDT
I do have many fragrances (too many actually), some of them niche but I still regard this perfume in the EDP concentration(not the EDT) one of the best modern oriental fougeres in the market.
Nice video! Greetings🇬🇷!
Thank you Christos!
Nice to see that old video of Stubbs from Happy Gilmore doing a review of Sauvage. 😂
That hat is still in style, keep rocking it!
Wish I still had it!
I think that was the reason I never brought it. It was just too popular. I would rather be asked, “What is that your wearing” vs “Oh that’s Sauvage”. I never disliked the scent though.
I've used about 80% of the 100ml bottle and I had enough. It does seem simplic to me today and I would rather wear something else but after a long break it will probably be great. I couldn't care less how popular and played out it is, it doesn't affect my relation to it in the slightest. Its good.
I thought that I’d outgrown it, but I wore it a few days ago after about a year, and it’s just so damn good and timeless. It just wears well and is such a dumb reach with insane versatility. I can’t imagine my life without it.
I only have a 10 ml of the edp. I would like to also get a 10 of the edt and the Parfum. I like the edp. I don’t seem to reach for it very much though. It’s funny though. I don’t remember ever getting any compliments from it though.
I did buy the clone versions of Sauvage and they weren’t very good. I since got rid of them.
Never purchased sauvage but have plenty of samples of it and I’ve just gone back to it to smell on my arm and instantly got a headache off it.
EDT version
I enjoy smelling it at Sephora or whoever I see it on occasion, but I won’t buy it simply because it’s such a popular frag. So I just enjoy it kinda like stopping to smell the roses on a nice walk.
Bro! This is great! 😂 I love this! I be thinking about this all the time. The older me talking to the younger me!
I wear the Parfum version and it's pleasant. But after a few hours I do get bored of it, unlike something like ADG Profumo which even after a long day, I still enjoy.
A great scent is a great scent. OG ADG, Nautica Voyage and Sauvage EDT will always be timeless. I don't like strong scent as they give me headaches. I love scents like this as it is pleasant and smooth and I feel good mentally smelling it on myself and others. It has that calming effect.
You said what ruined this fragrance for you is what it’s become and what other people think about it. Isn’t that kind of the same thing younger Justin was doing by liking a fragrance based on what other people think, i.e. compliments?
I would’ve just assumed you’ve moved past it because it just doesn’t hold your attention anymore.
That could be valid if I hadn’t decided to buy it for myself again. 😆
So true!
Just said "Let's just skip that" lmao, it's hard to watch my older videos as well. Definitely do more of these lol.
Thanks bro!
Honestly I never had the original Sauvage but I have clones of edt and edp version, I enjoy the scent and I got many compliments but since it is very boring to me I don't wear it very much. I just sometimes wear it because my girlfriend really likes it.
its like ... you are in doubt on what to wear.. cant decide... you wear sauvage edt and it will work
@@ismael85 yes exactly
It was nice seeing the Legend of Bagger Vance give his perspective. I think contradiction is the wrong word. No man who sets out on a journey is the same in the middle or end of that journey.
Haha. Hilarious, thank you.
I agree with you-but for the sake of evaluation, when you place one version of yourself next to another, contradiction can be present. I believe it’s just honest to say it, and it doesn’t have to have a negative connotation. It’s just an even clearer sign of growth.
I think this is a modern classic. I don’t wear it because I like how it smells on me it’s really strong but when I’ve past people wearing it I enjoy it. So I guess I’m hoping it comes off on me the same way. Not so much for compliments but it’s a good experience.
Another great video Fam
I just bought Tommy on Friday at Marshals just for nostalgia purposes and it still smells good
I have the edp and after all the years it’s okay. I wear for myself, the love of scent and the art. Not for other people period
I still have an almost full bottle of the edt. I’m trying to blend it with other fragrances because it’s just too familiar.
I still love Sauvage but don't wear it often since my collection is so expansive. It is an iconic fragrance and I would consider it to be an important historical fragrance as well.
i still have my DS EDT bottle from like 2017. it's only 1/3 full now and i don't wear it as much, mostly because i have 45 fragrances in my collection. but as with justin, it brings back memories to me too. dior sauvage is like a swiss army knife, or like a good michael jackson song: everybody knows it, most people like it, but many people also think it's overplayed.
I only wear the elixir now... it gets me a stupid amount of compliments.
I'd guess it's in part due to my age and elixir fits me better now but the EDT did fit me better in my 20s and did get me compliments.
Over-all, Elixir is the sweetest, darkest and strongest of the bunch and fits a guy in his 30s much more appropriately than the EDT, however, if youre in your 20s, the EDT and EDP will do the job.
I literally got 7 oz from Macys for 112 off the website I got a 6.8 and it came with a Dior bag nd .34 . idk how i got it so cheap but i did.
I bought my bottle at the same time you did and still have the same one. Basically never use it.
I still have some Eau Sauvage and it was my first “unisex” fragrance. I bought it because Tina Chow wore it and I really admired her style. I loved it. My second “unisex purchase was Jicky BTW. I don’t think I really got over the unfair reference to Eau Sauvage. I was hoping it would be more innovative, like Dior Homme and more referential, specifically referring to Eau Sauvage. Dior Sauvage IS the best selling fragrance worldwide male or female targeted.
I loved watching young Justin. Don’t be too hard on yourself.
The parfum is my favorite I thought the edt was a little to obnoxious for my liking... the edp is cool but my go to if I'm in the mood for sauvage is the parfum.
I actually prefer Dior Sauvage Eau De Parfum, over the Toilette, but to each their own. The EDP is a modern masterpiece in perfumery. It's the perfect fragrance.
You watching yourself was hilarious. Great video! Haha
Thanks!
I started using fragrance seriusly this year but I've never smelled sauvage during my life in the streets or clubs or anywhere. Here in México is not so common to use cologne, unless you are a middle age or old man, they like to douse themselves in cologne and it's cool
I love Dior Sauvage, always have, it’s the second most selling fragrance at my store behind Creed Aventus still !!!! I would love to know Wht makes it so “basic” ? It’s a classic in my opinion!!
First off, you’ve got a great name 👌🏾
Second, “basic” doesn’t translate to “bad”. While the fragrance smells very good and is highly functional, as far as the artistry of perfumery goes, it doesn’t offer anything interesting.
When Sauvage first came out, it was in heavy rotation for me. But as I started to discover hundreds and hundreds of great fragrances from brands that try to tell stories or paint pictures through scent, fragrances like Sauvage just didn’t fire the same synapses anymore. It’s more than about just “smelling good” to me at this point.
However, if you love Sauvage and the way it makes you feel, don’t let me persuade you. I don’t hate it and I objectively believe that it is a classic.
Fair enough.. 💯
The vacuum in the back is what makes this video so great😂
😂😂😂
Humble beginnings 😆
Layering Jo melon Lime basil with English Pear is awesome
Love it or hate it, this is a good scents. You can’t deny it
Which should I buy Irish tweed or Pegasus
Even though its soo popular I love to wear it still because I love the scent that much (EDP version) it lasts pretty long and its so versatile
My first two colonges were Givenchy Gentlemen and Sauvage Edp. Gentlemen was too formal to wear everyday. So I'd use Sauvage. It's a good starting point but itsnt the best smell, it's a nice scent. Overhyped yes, but it is a nice point A. Then I expanded to other scents and appreciate all of them. I do however really want the Elixir because it gives a different vibe from the Edp.
I love sauvage. I went to ulta and smelled all the flankers. Something was different that made me say it’s just good. I have a couple clones and 1 that has a kind of plum note that makes it a love again.
Thanks for the original content.
