Pros & Cons
- ✅ A modern classic. Much better than most of the modern designer releases that lean candy-sweet and borderline unisex.
- ✅ 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. Don't go crazy with the sprays and you'll be smelling fresh all day long.
- ✅ 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.
- ❌ really do not like. For the longest time this was the reason I thought I didn't like 'masculine' fragrances. I figured if this is what they call masculine, then I wanna be the furthest thing away from that.
- ❌ 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.
- ❌ 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. 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.
- ❌ Sauvage is the scent of a guy who treats overconfidence like a certification he earned in a paid weekend seminar. ... Sauvage doesn’t whisper. It doesn’t hint. It doesn’t seduce. It declares itself, plants a flag, and thanks you for coming to its TED Talk.
