Perfumer Reviews 'Sauvage EdT' by DIOR

[@NazgulfromLOTR]

Finally someone who can fairly judge a creation regardless if its massively hyped or popular. This is why people respect you Aaron!

[@steveparadox1]

Totally agree. Sauvage EDT is a great fragrance in my opinion. The Bergamot in it is stunning and the scent is so well blended. It smells classy and really well finished. Some people might hate on Sauvage saying it's such a common scent, but I rarely smell guys wearing fragrances when I'm out. Performance on it is really impressive too

[@javiervelez9817]

@@NotstarvinMarvin same thing will happen with the elixir. Once enough people buy it and with its enormous strength, people will start getting annoyed by it.

[@lorenzodemedici6332]

I don’t anybody that dislikes the way Savauge smells. Most people just don’t want to smell like everyone and their dad.

[@bewley7]

Exactly

[@thegoodfoke3606]

[@OtherworldJudge89]

Sauvage EDT is a modern classic. Will be timeless, I feel. Even twenty years from now it will still be popular, like a Acqua Di Gio

[@OhNellly]

I think Sauvage has also done a great job of turning people on to the fragrance world. We need fragrance like Sauvage to draw new people in and keep the fragrance world alive, thriving and well. Obviously the overwhelming majority of fragrance lovers started with designer fragrances before moving into niche. There for I think Sauvage and the likes help the niche industry as well.

[@Erick-hr5mv]

So the next man can smell like you too. ? Gtfo lol

[@Pursuit_Of_A_Homestead]

The way you describe scents, good or bad, is so unique that I feel like I’m right there smelling it…I find myself scrunching my nose when you describe scents you’re not a fan of and closing my eyes enjoying the scents you like and I’m not even there hahaha love these reviews !

[@jdmb03]

Thanks Aaron. Sauvage EDT is always a pleasure to wear. I gravitate to EDP and Elixir once in awhile, but EDT is the most universal.

[@RirtyDascal]

I really enjoyed the EDT and though I had a feeling I'd like the EDP better so when the EDT ran out I bought the big refill bottle of the EDP. Turns out I love em both equally. EDT more for spring and summer and EDP for fall winter. Can't forget Elixir for winter too but that's a totally different beast. I absolutely love the refillable bottles too as it helps bring the price per ml down a bit more and it's a slick little system.

[@vasquezinvoker3714]

Is the Performance for 300ml refil , when u refil the bottle still good ? Still the same ? Im thinking to buy 300ml refil for my edp but Im afraid about the quality of a 300ml bottle

This explains so much in such a great sort of a Feng Shui sort of way , very in touch with with every aspect such a professional! Best review of this fragrance I've ever seen !

[@Gorber]

Could you please review Guerlain L'homme ideal Extreme? Thanks for all the reviews Aaron! Been watching every single one of your videos - so interesting.

I love the way you take reviews to another level! I have a company that makes and sells the best clones but I’m now stoping and progressing into decanting original designer and neiche fragrances to make the more available and affordable to everyone and I’ve just purchased your raw cherry and will purchase more soon!!! Thankyou

[@ryne1625]

The Sauvage DNA is genuinely good, but the EDT is rather light. The use of vanilla in the EDP enhances the sweet of the ambroxan very much. That being said, Sauvage as my first fragrance holds a special place in my heart

[@TheRealCristiancandelaria]

It’s has a special place in my heart as it’s what got me to love fragrances !

[@marshjj3788]

The edt is pretty damn strong. 4 sprays and you'll fill up the room with that opening.

[@CinHotlanta]

I agree - I have the EDP and the Elixir, and for me those are the two best expressions of Sauvage.

[@Yourcheerz]

EDT is rather light? Try old bottles lmao

[@TheRealCristiancandelaria]

@@Yourcheerz edt definitely ain’t light lol , I’m pretty positive I got one of newer batches and I think it’s strong already so I can only imagine a older batch

[@daniellabuda7744]

I own this perfume, and yes, this is very nicely built. Very inspirational review. Thank you so much Aaron.

[@pheonixeternal8981]

I got a tester of the edt of sauvage and I was hooked

[@santeripe]

I get migraine headaches from many fragrances that don't smell harmonious. This one is exceptionally harmonious and beautifully put together. Robust wall of scent and strong projection without being a single bit annoying. Even if I didn't know that it was popular, I would be amazed by how balanced and expertly crafted it is! You can tell someone very talented spent a lot of time working on it. One of the most "finished" fragrances I've ever smelled.

[@Banggeek]

How about the sauvage EDP ? BRO

[@zinzolin14]

At first i thought i hated it, but after trying it on skin I'm really considering a bottle of this. On paper it smelled harshly synthetic and metallic, and was what drew me away from it at first. Then i was encouraged to try it on my skin and my perspective has totally changed. Bergamot as you said is heavy in the opening, then the ambroxin kicks in. On me it smells intensly fresh and woody, still with that metallic quality thats almost sweet. Now I see why Sauvage is so decisive among fragrance enthusiasts. It was great listening to your professional analysis on what makes Sauvage so appealing!

[@robusto7735]

EDT’s from the 90’s and 80’s last an eternity….today, not so much. Sauvage EDT is an exception. This is a summer dumb-reach for me. Citrus fragrances don’t last long on my skin and clothes but this one does. Great review as always!!!

[@elliothm8370]

Those first JPG Le Male lasted an eternity!

[@mikacmiky]

Try dior homme sport 2021

[@Beardsome10]

Try Afnan 9pm, best dupe of jpg ultra male. Smells exactly like it and last 12+ hours with beast mode projection.

[@robertpatterson3108]

At first I was thrown for a loop. Aaron likes Sauvage? I guess I’m so used to reviewers crapping on Sauvage but I should have know a real perfumer would dissect and look at this fragrance for what it was and is, a beautifully constructed fragrance meant to smell pleasant and appealing to the wearer and those around them. I think that’s what most reviewers hate about it, that it’s not exclusively their signature scent. As always, another great review.

[@llollercakes]

Always love watching your videos; they're relaxing and educational. I don't know if you've ever gotten your nose on Parfums De Marly Kalan, but I think that would be a great one to see you do a video on since it's such a divisive fragrance.

[@YellowBrickFloyd]

Thank you, Aaron, for your honesty, expertise, and multi-faceted presentations. This fragrance takes a lot of no so friendly fire, but I agree that all things considered it's a 10/10 I believe that at least some of the negative opinions come from "over application" of this fragrance when just a few sprays is plenty. Other citrus type EDTs for example yes 5-6 sprays, but personally it's too much for this one...just a guess IMHO.

[@applenrd]

Thank you for taking the time to share your expert analysis and unbiased opinions with us

[@zbraganza]

You have an old review. Glad for the change of heart

[@sillagescents]

Agreed! It’s a 10. Thanks for an honest review in spite of the hate this frag gets!

[@genki2genki]

I'll have to check it out again. I don't care how popular it is, but my first impression of it wasn't positive. Thank you for the brilliant review, Aaron.

[@133taxi]

Great tutorial Aaron very informative. I went out and purchased a bottle of Sauvage edt to see what all the hype was about . I do Salsa & as you know it is a close up dance , I have had compliments before on my cologne ie channel platinum egostie, but when I wore the sauvage the women said how great I smelt , I am a young 73 & can definitely recommend Sauvage edt. Thank you for your recommendation 👍🏻

[@dep1001]

Another great insight and review, Aaron. Everybody and their mom are wearing Sauvage so because of that I'm turned off by it, but surely a good frag. Cheers

[@frankmagyar4212]

Absolutely love your videos Aaron. The methyl pamplemousse made me think of a product my company produces sustainably through fermentation for Givaudan, nootkatone. Have you ever encountered it as a raw material? In formulation, it is a very interesting mixture of herbaceous, cannabis notes with a strong grapefruit smell. It is one of the compounds in the grapefruit peel hypothesized to be a protectant against insects. It's also used as a flavoring for citrus sodas because its very safe and non toxic. Hope you find this interesting. Cheers!

[@regismonkton]

I like the Dior "Sauvage" line, especially "Sauvage Parfum" which is one of my favorite fragrances. Aaron, what do you think of "Sauvage Parfum"?

[@beau_de_jour]

Agree. The richer and smoothiest of the first 3 Sauvages. The Elixir is an outsider

[@thetechlibrarian]

I like the perfume version as well

Sauvage was one of the first designer frags I bought and one I still use frequently. I also agree with Aaron on every point made, however, I would add that it's a compliment beast. I have other frags that get lots of compliments, but it's the way people compliment Sauvage that stands out. Tbh, its a huge turn-on.

[@anthonyb4515]

I remember when this one first came out and I got my bottle from Macy's. It blew my mind at the time and my bottle from 2015 still smells so amazing. Dont' wear it much anymore because my taste in fragrances have changed and that scent profile reminds me of college. Dior went over the top with Elixir which I think is the best in the Sauvage in the line. When I'm not wearing niche and it's super cold in the midwest, I often grab elixir to cut through the cold and smell amazing.

Ive been wearing edt since 2017. I only encountered 5 person wearing it up until now.

[@jimlittle5769]

Love Dior Sauvage EDT, EDP and Elixir. Somehow it's a bit of a miss on the Parfum, IMO. Doesn't really project, and the scent is just off. Not that it's bad, but the others are FANTASTIC!

[@dopameanx9547]

Aaron - can you please compare the construction of Sauvage EDT to Layton by PDM? They feel almost reverse where the pepper sits lower on the Layton but overall very similar scents. I would almost wear Sauvage casually or during the day and Layton in the evenings when I wanted a bit more refinement, but very similar to me. Interested to hear your note and construction comparison. Ty!

[@Slimbk13]

Awesome review as always, I love how much you can detach from you personal preferences when doing them and appreciate the fragrances for what they are. I wonder if you can also get you hands on Chanel Allure Homme Sport, mind you this a different fragrance from the Eau Extreme which you already reviewed. Different notes, comes in EDT concentration and it's something that others besides my self regard as timeless. Considering how much you love french perfumery, I believe you'll also enjoy making that review.

Sauvage EDP is my fav out of the line, excluding elixir! I had my og batch of Sauvage edt and quickly went through it fast back in 2015/2016 days, the EDP is just divine and even though I have niche scents and a huge variety of scents in my collection I’ll always keep a bottle of Sauvage for nostalgic purposes way back when.! I know it’s everywhere nowadays and everyone uses this but it sure is legendary

[@del-marmare1646]

I definitely then am nose blind to Sauvage and YSL fragrances. I honestly don't get it. They smell like deodorant to me. I hate that I don't enjoy them, cause I'm probably missing out on something rather charming. I have Bleu de Channel Perfum, which I absolutely adore.
