"I don't think it's a downside, it's the nature of the fragrance" Listen. There is true respect, wisdom and down-to-earth modesty in these words. I wish a lot more people would think like that, and not just towards fragrances, but opinions and other people in general. You never cease to impress me, good sir

It's a SOTD for me. I'll say it just for the sake of it - the opening reminds me of Durex Classic condoms to me. And you know that when you open that pack - something good is about to happen LOL. Same with the fragrance. The De Niro comparison was spot on! It's my second signature scent and I prefer to wear it to work in the day time. I spray it about 20 minutes before work because I believe that's when it's starting to develop the best.

Had both, loved both...after 15 min, I found them so similar, that I sold the 2017 version, not because it's worse, kept the 2012 since is rarer...both are very resinous and calming and elegant. Performance both extraordinary. Really see no point to hunt down the 2012 version on ebay, when I can buy the 2017 version new

Finally I purchased it today and the dry down is to die for.... My goodness it’s ultra suave.. I was reluctant to go for this 2017 version since my favorite was the older version and I can say that it smells somewhat closer to the older version... Thank you AC sir🤝🤝🤝🙏❤️

Hey AC just tried this today at sephora my god its a powerhouse. And as you described the fragrance opens up after 3 4 hours its a beautiful fragrance and best thing is it lasts a very long time and keep in mind i stay in India where the weather is hot so you can imagine the strength of this and smells absolutely incredible.

Both the edt and parfum have a special place in my heart, brings back a tsunami of positive emotions from memories captured whilst wearing both over the years, they will always be in my collection ❤ The edt was actually my SOTD yesterday.

That Robert De Niro meme cracked me up good, more so because I just recently rewatched Taxi Driver. Picturing him with Eau Sauvage is not short of a perfect impression either. Eau Sauvage (the vintage, haven't smelled the 2017 version) is not just a fragrance, it's a statement, a phenomenon, and like De Niro, people will notice when someone like him enters the room. Brilliant review my friend, I think I will add a sample to my cart with the Prada Ambers, just so I can be sure to completely knock it out of the park ;) Have a great weekend, God bless!

I love this one and consider it above the Blue Dior Sauvage. I agree about the opening; a bit awkward and different but the dry down is amazing and works on my skin for a good 7-8 hours. Because of the opening I’d sample before buying but it’s earned a spot on my shelf!

My dad wore the edt throughout my childhood and I now wear the edp which I similar enough, but different enough for me. I’ve had compliments on this 3 of the last 5 times I’ve worn it. As much as I love dark vetiver fragrances, I get crazy compliments every time I wear citrusy scents (Issey Miyake is insane too, somehow- I’ve had it from strangers in lifts and on trains several times which never happens 🤷🏽)

I have a bottle purchased in 2018 and I still get the myrhh...don’t recall 2012 version much but this seems very similar to the one before. Glad to have a bottle and have been thinking of getting a backup bottle when I have time (and money) to spend from getting other Frags.

Thanks for the review / comparison of this classic, AC. While I've found that myrrh just doesn't often agree with my skin / nose, I can see everyone likes the 2012. I'm still working on a decants of both, in part because I gotta like it more than my recently acquired and "darker" smelling Prada Amber Intense. Sauvage edps have Great performance, classic vibe with modern appeal. I should note that I could probably try testing Sauvage with fewer sprays before passing final judgement. Another great review.

AC, it’s like you have a crystal ball and can see what your followers are waiting for lol. So I actually got this one(2017) like a month ago, a blind buy without watching your review 1st, I know big mistake hehe. I hadn’t opened it yet and went to test it at a store. When I sprayed it on the paper, I was like oh my, what have I bought? So it’s been sitting in the sealed box and I’ve been contemplating if I should open it or sell it. Along came your review. So what a timely review. Now I can rest assure and have a crack at it knowing it won’t disappoint, especially if it has your seal of approval. Looking forward to wearing it and will fill you in. Thank you again for amazing work.

Tried the 2017 version... after 1 hour dry down, you're just left with a vetiver and dusty rose scent. Smells like someone's grandma. I'll pass.
