NEW DIOR SAUVAGE EAU FORTE FRAGRANCE FIRST IMPRESSIONS 2024: The WORST SAUVAGE EVER?

[@johnjohannes5954]

for 200 USD you can also get a Roja perfume or an Amouage on discounters. And would you choose a sauvage with no performance over these ?? NO WAY !!

[@Wesujin]

Bruh, I just bought Aventus Cologne for $215...

[@Blazntrax81]

Sauvage is gonna have their first bomb. This was a terrible decision by Dior. People who buy Sauvage don't want a milky skin scent. There's no way the casual customer will get this over any of the other flankers. It's a pass.

[@miguel598]

This alcohol-free Sauvage is for muslims. Europe is full of them. They can't have alcohol in their fragrances. Probably Dior knows something about future regulations we don't or, at least, is trying to please those invading Europe 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@lo_0109]

Not sure about that - there are lot of people waiting for alcohol free perfume. Either of healty reasons or religious reasons. And I find this flanker much more mature and wearable as the others. Elixir is mature but horrible

[@sebastian8040]

@@lo_0109nobody cares for this gimmicky crap. Especially for the price it’s going for. Maybe for people who want something alcohol free or bc it’s different but I heard it leaves your skin sticky and you probably won’t be able to spray your clothes without it leaving a milky residue. Pass for most people for sure.

[@Everyday_Railroading]

​@lo_0109 - Agreed. I own this fragances, but I bet the commenter never bought it. People bashing just to bash. This KZbin video was absolutely terrible!! She opened the fragance 5 minutes ago without any testing and already saying no performance and don't buy when she hasn't even spent 30 minutes with the fragance. I wore it and can still smell it on my shirt 3 days later. She was terrible with the video.

@@Everyday_Railroadingcouldn’t agree more with you! However not going to lie, I love this fragrance so much that I’m kind of glad the KZbinrs are bashing it.

Let's not forget. The perfumer made a good scent. The problem is that it is to expensive for what it is. And that it doesn't last but that is probably because of the lack of alcohol. Let's not blame Francis Kurdjan.

They’re completely different. The Parfum has that Sauvage DNA but it has a more unique twist to it. The Eau Forte barley has the DNA. Not saying it’s not there at all, but it’s way too different. Which isn’t a big deal. Both are Parfum concentrations. The biggest difference is pretty obvious. One is alcohol based and the other one is water based. One is Dark, Sweet and Woody and the other one is Fresh, Clean, Aquatic, Woody and Spicy.

Honestly, I think you're giving bad information without doing ANY amount of testing. How can you put out a KZbin video giving a bad review on a fragance you just opened 5 minutes ago? Such a piss poor way to go about it and what a biased review because your hate for Sauvage. Spray that on your shirt 2 or 3 times and tell me you don't smell the scent 3 days later. It absolutely has some projection and is quite strong. I think you're totally wrong saying it has absolutely no performance all because you say is "typical " for water based fragances. Next time, do some actual testing before saying some of what you said. An unboxing and first impression is fine .... but jumping right to zero performance and dont buy is quite disingenuous.
