Pros & Cons
- ✅ A modern classic. Much better than most of the modern designer releases that lean candy-sweet and borderline unisex.
- ✅ Fresh, spicy, and very recognizable. Performance is solid, with good longevity and strong projection.
- ✅ It's a crowd pleaser and very sophisticated. Smells clean and rich!
- ✅ Myrrh-vetiver-oakmoss combo gives the original some teeth
- ✅ Beast longevity in a category that usually disappears
- ✅ The Eau Sauvage for someone who needs it to last past 2pm
- ❌ Foul stench! Made my husband scrub it off. Smells like an old man who peed his pants and tried to cover it up.
- ❌ This is synthetic slop. One of the few fragrances that makes me nauseous.
- ❌ The biggest problem is that Sauvage has become extremely overused. It has lost much of its originality.
- ❌ Lost the airy DNA that made the original a summer classic
- ❌ Dense myrrh can become headache-inducing in warmth
