Pros & Cons
- ✅ A modern classic. Much better than most of the modern designer releases that lean candy-sweet and borderline unisex.
- ✅ Fresh. Spicy. Bergamot, pepper, that woody ambroxan base. Smells like a proper man.
- ✅ you really can not go wrong with this fragrance i get a bergamot pepper alongside lavender scent fresh professional and clean 8.9/10
- ✅ Great scent profile with a fresh, spicy character that feels vibrant and well-balanced. Performance is excellent, with longevity exceeding 10 hours
- ✅ This is a bergamot and pepper dream. ... Sauvage defies the awful modern trend of skimping out on body and longevity
- ✅ Amazing perfume. Works day or night, any season. I understand a lot of people like to hate on it because it is very popular. However I just love it, I could imagine wearing it forever.
- ✅ Great scent profile with a fresh, spicy character that feels vibrant and well-balanced. Performance is excellent, with longevity exceeding 10 hours, along with strong projection and noticeable sillage.
- ✅ Instant classic. It's only hated because people over spray it. I like it because of how strong and long lasting it is.
- ✅ This is a bergamot and pepper dream. I'm a woman. ... Sauvage defies the awful modern trend of skimping out on body and longevity, and brings bergamot, pepper and 'woodsy' notes back to the fore front where it belongs and it remains, for more than 6 hours.
- ✅ A little ray of sunshine came along. Matcha Meditation has been discontinued from a huge retailer and to my luck, it was discounted by 70%.
- ✅ Smells like a match flavored Kit Kat or a matcha flavored white chocolate Hershey bar. It’s so good.
- ✅ Light, fresh, creamy matcha scent that dries down to white florals and oakmoss. A feminine green tea scent.
- ❌ Foul stench! Made my husband scrub it off. ... Smells like an old man who peed his pants and tried to cover it up.
- ❌ while i understand the mass appeal, this is synthetic slop. one of the few fragrances that makes me nauseous
- ❌ Mainly a very strong and dominant synthetic dry wood plus random spicy notes mix. ... This is not pleasant on my skin at all, makes me even a bit dizzy
- ❌ Unwrap a Butterfinger and coat it in Vaseline. ... 'Sauvage' succeeds in recreating the aroma of 50-year-old farts trapped in Neil Armstrong's space suit.
- ❌ really do not like. For the longest time this was the reason I thought I didn't like 'masculine' fragrances.
- ❌ Foul stench! Made my husband scrub it off. He didn't like it at all and I absolutely hated it. Smells like an old man who peed his pants and tried to cover it up.
- ❌ Mainly a very strong and dominant synthetic dry wood plus random spicy notes mix. I also get a fresh and clean deodorant, shower gel, locker room profile vibe to it, which does not help making shine the other part of the fragance. This is not pleasant on my skin at all, makes me even a bit dizzy every time I catch the scent.
- ❌ Unwrap a Butterfinger and coat it in Vaseline. Insert it directly into your anus. Wait four hours and withdraw the rectum-marinated treat. Hold it under your nose and take a big whiff. Congratulations. You now know what 'Sauvage' smells like. ... Avoid at all costs.
- ❌ really do not like. For the longest time this was the reason I thought I didn't like 'masculine' fragrances. ... Its not TERRIBLE. I don't think anyone who wears this should never step outside with it on ever again. But its definitely not for me.
- ❌ Doesn't Age Well. After 6 months, the formula degraded... white chocolate note overtook everything and it became screechy and lactonic.
- ❌ All I get is a mossy chocolate grass. I’ve had it for months, and I keep revisiting it hoping that it’ll be different, but it’s a scrubber.
- ❌ Smells like clothes that have been left in the washing machine for far too long. I cannot believe how damp and musty this smells. Terrible.
