Dior Sauvage EDT VS Bleu de Chanel EDT - Which Should You Buy?

[@J.R.Y.]

This channel keeps getting more refined and more produced. Better set, graphics, lighting, etc. Kudos to the team!

[@murglasski]

I’ve gotten the most compliments with Sauvage EDT. Although I adore BDC, I gotta go with Sauvage if I could only choose one 💜

[@danielb.1567]

just because it was loud. people smelled it so they said something. if BdC was as loud they would probably like that scent more

[@_Solaris]

​@@danielb.1567 agreed.

[@zachkuykendall1048]

Dior is a powerhouse in both their men's and women's frags.. I'm consistently impressed by their overall quality for the price.

[@SpaceStrike]

Stop praising them

[@Chadckay]

[@r91playsind]

You need to get some Manceras then

[@Alritealritealrite]

Do you think the EDT is still worth getting? I'm not that big into blue fragrances. And I'm about 2 years into this fragrance thing. The bluest fragrance I have is polo blue Parfum

[@robertwinkler8444]

@@Alritealritealrite Kinda a newbie too, try Acqua di Gio Profondo 2024 EDP. Get the EDP not the Parfum. Don't think it's redundant. Never blind but anything sample it if you can😎😎😎

[@muhammadurwah1990]

Bought BDC edt on 2015. Sold it after half a bottle. Since then I've emptied a bottle of BDC EDP and recently parfum. Got around myself BDC edt 50ml again and loving it thus far,using it in the high heat. The drydown is magnificent. BDC EDP is the all rounder. But if you live in hot and humid climate like me, edt is the best bet.

[@SpaceStrike]

As-salamu alaykum. Do they really smell that different

[@robertwinkler8444]

Agree BDC EDP is better IMO

[@manfredvaegler9661]

For me Chanel is the clear winner, honestly I find the Dior unwearable. Great video, thanks

[@TrustNoOne88]

I’ve been a huge frag head for many many years now and I actually just got Sauvage edt and I really like it lol. That ambroxen is 👍. So yes the Dior wins for me!

[@ccmogs5757]

Sick of smelling Sauvage everywhere - BDC is much more classy 👌

[@RoC937]

You make great points. BDC is undeniably a great scent. But as far as EDTs go... ima go with Sauvage everytime.

[@Q_N-]

This is a close match, I ended up choosing BDC since it’s a bit more refined. And as Ash stated, BDC is smoother. Sauvage is a projection beast, but on the dry down, it just doesn’t hold up

[@srkovkan]

If you are a guy, buy Dior Sauvage If you are a man, buy Bleu de Chanel

[@oNeHanDGuN]

If you are looking for the smell and versatility go for BDC..if you're going for performance and compliment go for Sauvage

[@masonmatos22]

Bleu de Chanel edp is the best men’s fragrance I’ve ever smelled and/or owned. Nothing compares

[@justhair17]

Its not even the best Bleu de Chanel

[@moneyparhar]

BDC is elegant. Thier would be no Sauvage if it wasn't for BDC

[@liperlupulus]

Sauvage EDT is better than Bleu de Chanel EDT but Bleu de Chanel EDP is better than Sauvage EDT

[@hajun9628]

& sauvage EDP?

[@mikehalo6786]

There is also sauvage edp, Parfums, elixir

[@Nicoooooooo5557]

And sauvage elixir it's better than entire channel

[@kevino73]

I like the concept of this video. Would love to see more like this.

[@jarridsteel6229]

BDC smells better overall and Sauvage has better performance. So, which of those is more important to you will subjectively determine which of the two you'd prefer. Personally, I'm not a huge fan of either of them but neither is bad. If I had to choose one to be the best, BDC wins.

[@justhair17]

Better smell is clearly more important. It doesnt matter how strong a frag is if it does not smell pleasant

[@jarridsteel6229]

Again, like my comment says, it's subjective. Some people care more about performance than smell. @@justhair17

[@dimitarapostolov9788]

Regarding the Atomizer - I am curious, if you give Sauvage 8.5, what would you give a 10 to? I haven't found a better atomizer out there than the ones on Dior, and 8.5 is kinda questionable

[@loborter]

He gave 8.5 for the overall presentation if i'm not mistaken

[@dimitarapostolov9788]

No he gave the atomizer alone 8.5@@loborter

[@vanderleitadeudesouza3358]

Would someone really make an educated buying decision based on a fragrance *atomizer?* Apparently, this category has the same weight as longevity and projection... I don't think so.

[@aaron4387]

Truth.

[@srm158]

I took a break from your chanel, and many frag channels because I was burnt out by the repeated type content everyone was doing. Though this has been done before, I'm glad to see the change up! I like the set, and youre a lot more enjoyable when you put in more effort. It shows nicely. 👌👌

[@derred723]

I'm far more a Bleu De Chanel person and i'm not a big Savauge fan so for me it's all BDC and not even close. Scent is all that matters to me. So it wins on scent to me.

[@MattJames37]

Sauvage EDT is unwearable for me as it’s headache inducing. The EDP however I love it got a monster 200ml bottle. BDC EDT is less masculine, the EDP and the parfum are amazing but the the dry down on all concentrations is beautiful.

[@mirageelite3423]

Depends where Ur from, if U are from south East Asia where most countries are hot and humid, avoid EDP and apply EDT. If you are in a colder weather then apply EDP

[@TheSpencer033]

sauvage's biggest problem is that people thinks EVERYONE wears it, when hardly anyone actually does. i think the two main reasons are the price (unless you are into frags, you are not likely to buy a bottle. cheapies are going to try and get a cheap clone), and the reputation of it being so popular has had the opposite effect. everyone thinks its over popular, which makes less people wear it overall, and the few dudes that stuck with it are laughing

[@mehtarm]

Sauvage edt any day of the week , but bdc EDP over any of other sauvage flankers

[@philippedelorme6296]

I like this type of colparison. Sauvage clearly wins in terms of performance. But in terms of smell, perceived quality, for me Bleu de Chanel is ahead. So this one get my vote

[@Christian-rf7px]

Sauvage edt or edp is just like lavender disinfectant solution. The scent is clean and fresh but it does not take away from my olfactory that they smell like that. I love the Elixir though. The bdc however have more character to it as a fresh scent.

[@PoopFrogg1]

Bought Sauvage for the 1st time in August for my trip to Spain and …it’s a banger! It will be one I will always bring back to my collection I’m yet to try Bleu De Chanel but I will

[@victorashul]

for uniqueness : you had a fragrance like that before those 2 : L'Eau d'Issey Intense

[@bahaa108]

Dior for sure

[@jaker2238]

Ash some of my favorite videos from you are the ones where you review peoples' collections. Can you start doing more of those types of videos in the near future?

[@rajeaeon]

Awesome format. Looking forward to more battles like this.

[@mso]

Why are there blue fragrances and green fragrances but what about the other colors? Like orange, red, yellow, etc…

[@JohnWolf926]

I think red is Amber fragrances But yellow and orange mentally sound like citrus fragrances but those are often in blue/greens and others as well

[@nykia31]

It's really really close. I just love that grapefruit note of BDC though...

[@0ct8gon]

This is perfect as a buying guide

[@jeancovarrubias8955]

[@brentratcliffe5298]

I liked this video, you should do more match ups and fragrance ‘battles’ for both designer and niche. Then at the end of the year, you could do a ranking list based on the results 👌🏼

[@clambake24]

Bleu de Chanel EDT by a mile. Been through bottles of that. Never have owned sauvage

[@Mockingjay0819]

Amazing vid ash! Really close and yeah i agree it depends on your preference on which u like more.

[@justhair17]

Feel like bdc is the objectively better frag. Also, for these kind of rankings, you should weight different categories. I feel that something like presentation are not nearly as important as the other ones and how it smells (i.e. opening and drydown) is by far the most important factor

[@dnatural1iam23]

Fragrance community hates on sauvage EDT so much but I get compliments on it more then any other fragrance

[@SirEricArthurBlair]

I’ve never liked Sauvage. To me BDC is hands down the better fragrance.

[@jameslogan8710]

Maybe an unpopular opinion but EDT is the best version of both Sauvage and BDC. Now if I were to compare them BDC wins and it's not close. Bleu de Chanel is a solid modern classic that actually smells unique and still has crazy versatility , while Sauvage is generic and obviously designed for mass-appeal.

[@justhair17]

Agreed

For Sauvage I can understand but for BDC clearly the EDP is better, like not even close. But to each their own

[@Rayver09]

@@justhair17most people would disagree and even Chanel advertises mostly the EDP.

[@detsportsfan18]

Sauvage EDT, better projecting, but both are great. I'll even go as far to say that Sauvage EDT is the best of the Sauvage line, even with Elixir being as overhyped as it is, while smelling awful.

[@bonesawisready2865]

Sauvage elixir is cool I like the spicy overall smell easily my biggest compliment getting frag but it isn’t my favorite. Insane performance can’t deny that

[@TheGeorobe]

I like this video, but BDC should win here because you were short 2 points for BDC when you added the third criterion. love what you do Ash

[@GeeMood]

Sauvage EDT. I used to love BDC, EDT & EDP but for some reason, my nose fell out with it. It not a bad fragrance at all, just don't care for it anymore. Still wear Sauvage EDT from time to time, so Sauvage for the win.

[@lullemans72]

i like this video theme. actually FWIW, 3 years ago, it's this exact video format that got me hooked on fragrances. there's another youtuber called cubaknow who made a video some time back comparing dior sauvage EDT with prada luna rossa carbon. that video was freaking hilarious, and the rest is history.

[@SmellsAddicted]

I think most people think about the first 2 categories as the most important because if you don't like the smell why care about stuff like longevity or projection? So, I think most people agree with Ash that BDC smells better than Sauvage (according to his scores).

[@podkriznikaljaz]

I like a more grown-up fragrance, so it's Bleu de Chanel for me (I have the Parfum). Sauvage Elixir is the only one I would buy, but it's a bit pricey.

[@renegadebrad7448]

This was interesting and I'd agree savauge edges it due to performance and that is what makes the majority keep buying it but the majority aren't people like us who own fragrance collections they are mostly the had a bottle as gift for Christmas or birthday and stuck with it and brought a new bottle again and again etc, so it doesn't surprise me that we your subscribers went for the quality of scent in bleu de chanel over the performance of savauge because we own other beast mode performing fragrances wheres the average member of the public who discovers dior savauge thinks the performance is a unique thing across the whole world of fragrance so they stick to it.

[@wazzabanzook5028]

Bleu de Chanel is way better in all varients

[@davidnaser]

Hi Ashton love your videos as always. My top two fragrance i have in this order of all time as of current is Dior Sauvage Elixir and Dior Homme Parfum. They are almost tied but the Elixir just has that unique smell which is my favorite. Yes i have two brand new bottles of the Homme Parfum. One from Italy and the other from Switzerland since they are not sold in United States. Will be traveling soon so i may pick up a third bottle just in case. Great work as always.

[@harlemcaron9094]

That sauvage opening is better than just avout anything in my book ...classic

[@iknowgirls]

I blew through 2 BDC bottles before half a bottle of savauge....no contest for me

[@dontezcristol3017]

I've had both of these, and I've moved on to other frags. But I'm sure after enough time has gone by, I'll repurchase both of these.

[@henrymahoney7072]

The simple answer is buy them both because they're both masterpieces.

[@jacobsfitnessladder285]

I used to get a ton of compliments for savauge. Thats no longer the case because women are sick of smelling it. I dont even wear it as much anymore. Its usually the last thing i reach for.

[@carlwallace1129]

Great video comparison and break down overall. Its very close.

[@maniespi4245]

BDC is great but as you said it’s more sophisticated and doesn’t really try to grab people’s attention where as sauvage is a head turner every time

[@vanderleitadeudesouza3358]

It's a head-turner! I turn my head away everytime... The scent is very polarizing. Dior Sauvage edt, is FAR from being an unanimity. To my nose it smells synthetic, unnatural. Being more like a *fume* than a perfume (cologne).

[@josephhaddad7169]

can you do edp and parfum for both? i REALLY like this style of comparisons with fragrances

[@hamishmaude390]

Longevity and protection shouldn’t have the same weighting as quality and the scent itself…

[@TheMichaelRN]

Bleu is classier but performance is below average especially in high heat, one hour projection then it becomes a skin scent for another three hours or so.

[@lilsubedi2763]

i like the idea of this series

[@mp6471]

As an owner of Sauvage, Bleu opening is top tier, I would giv it 9 out of 10 too, it is delicious smelling and beast mode in projection, would it have been the same for the entire dry-down, I would have bought Bleu instead of Sauvage😊

[@MrLilRexy]

Both brands are like Apple vs Samsung battle 😂

[@vanderleitadeudesouza3358]

Haha!! 😂 I'm all for BdC and Samsung!

[@Hun_Uinaq]

I think both belong in your collection. Personally, I like Sauvage Le Parfum and Bleu de Chanel EDP but I’m a middle-aged guy. Young folks probably would like the EDT better.

Folks! I went to arguably the biggest and best Niche store in Canada. The 20+ year expert perfumer said Estee Lauder replaced natural notes with synthetics in Initio, Tom Ford, PDM, Jo Malone, Le Labo. and the frags are much weaker with more alcohol. Ambroxan is amped up like crazy. If you smell right after 1st spray and it smells like gasoline that is ambroxan. I have over 10 bottles of these former companies. Why didnt the bottles say Reformulated or have Estee Lauder name ???

It’s hard to pick one, in EdT concentration Sauvage wins, when you go EdP or parfum, BdC wins, Sauvage elixir rocks but there is no BdC equivalent (yet)

[@shpalman7]

I like the Sauvage DNA more, because I'm not a fan of the sweet woods in the base of the Chanel. And I think the Sauvage EdT is the best one, truest to the spirit, since "more mature Sauvage" is an oxymoron, it's not what it's for. Don't blame the ambroxan for it being metallic though, Molecule 02 doesn't smell metallic. But a whole lot of people won't admit to liking any Sauvage apart from Elixir "because it doesn't smell like Sauvage".

[@rustyharden2716]

I went with Dior because no one had blue to test. Also same reason why I will never pay 400$ on a fragrance I don’t care how many KZbin’s say it’s amazing. Everyone’s nose is diffrent

I’ll say Sauvage. It has great staying power and can be worn anywhere. To me, Chanel is sorta bland and doesn’t stick around long enough. I like both but Sauvage is a clear winner

Completely different scents, to me. Buy both.

[@commissioner1969]

This is my thoughts. Dior smells so interesting that i find myself searching for that smell. Bleu smells a lot safer. Less offensive. Spray it on the back of your neck so its not in your face all day. When you open the window of your car the breeze hits your neck and they both smell amazing.
