I couldn’t stand it; after 3 hours, it didn’t evolve at all, and that acidic, sour smell at the same time was unbearable. I regret having to be so harsh on a perfume from this line since I love them, but if Kurkdjian had no shame in doing this, neither will I in giving it a bad review. I don’t know the longevity; I washed my arm before knowing how long it lasted; the projection is faint, you have to get very close to smell it. If it smells clean, but honestly, my bathroom also smells clean and has a more bearable scent on the body than this…
Totally different from the Sauvage line. I don’t think it’s a bad fragrance; it feels herbal and soapy. It doesn’t project much but lasts a ton on the skin. Note: After seeing several YouTubers hate the fragrance and so many negative comments, I thought it would affect me, but it didn’t. Try it yourself and draw your own conclusions. The negative aspect of this fragrance is the price, but I think it’s very original and pleasant.
MFK wanted to make a strong entrance during their time at Dior, and they did it by releasing a product that left no one indifferent. The bad: Exorbitant price, liquid texture and skin feel, weak projection, out of place in the Sauvage line. The good: A scent different from everything in the line and on the market, excellent longevity, purposeful and challenging. Unfortunately, hatred has become a comfort for chronic misfits and those who hate themselves. It’s sad to see so many of these individuals on this platform, judging perfumes before even knowing them and stoking resentment among people who don’t think like them (all under the shelter of internet anonymity). I made a negative review before, but after testing it several times and gathering opinions, I’m convinced this aromatic proposal has received disproportionate hatred. It’s not the best fragrance of the decade or this year, but it tried to propose something different from the established norm, and that’s appreciated in a world where designer fragrances are losing quality and originality. Their big mistake was placing it in the Sauvage line instead of creating a collection with another name. My recommendation: don’t let yourself be swayed by the bad comments. Wearing it, I’ve received good feedback, especially from women. Test it, give it a few days, and form your own opinion. You might be pleasantly surprised.
This one is good, but since it’s alcohol-free, it has a milky appearance, which, no matter how good the perfume is, gives me the creeps. It’s like you added a perfume made by you with different oils of different smells + tap water. Although all this isn’t a bad perfume; in fact, they proposed something that has nothing to do with the other Sauvages. While the milky appearance is disgusting, it’s a good perfume, smells well, lasts as long as it should, projects between 2-4 hours, and is also versatile. 6/10.
I tested it in a store, and honestly, it’s very different from what Sauvage is. I didn’t like it much, but since it’s a water-based perfume, it’s expected, though it feels weird on the skin but it’s not ugly.
I’ve never been a fan of the Sauvage line; I never use fragrances to get compliments, I always use what I like even if it’s weird. Although Sauvage is safe, the scent never won me over; it always seemed made with lab molecules, artificial. Leaving aside the controversial price, this ‘new Sauvage version’ did please me. It has two parts: a white soapy-creamy aftershave scent like Nivea and a herbal-resinous-musky part. It’s very linear; I perceive the same notes all the time, just varying the proportion: first the soapy part dominates, and when it dries, the herbal-resinous part comes out. Some say it smells ‘dead,’ and I think a little bit it is, since we’re getting used to current perfumes needing air to project due to molecule bans. So I don’t find this alcohol-free attempt strange; if there’s no air or movement, it seems like it doesn’t smell, but if you move outdoors, it’s perceived well. Up close it smells soapy, from afar (sillage) it’s more herbal, and when it dries it becomes resinous and mature, and at that point I don’t like it much. Does it smell bad? No, but it’s not the most attractive. Novelty? More like modernized vintage; I love the clean opening, but when it dries it smells ‘old man,’ something mature and classic that reminds you of your father. Does it last short? No, it lasts 6-8 hours, but if there’s no air, it’s not perceived. Is it expensive? The fault is ours due to excessive demand; soon we’ll have cheap private lines. I would buy it, but at half the price. In Mexico, they ask for the equivalent of 200 dollars for 100ml. Never!
No wonder people hate it. It doesn’t resemble anything in the line, not remotely, nada. It’s like they wanted to make a skin balm… It lasts nothing, projects nothing, and doesn’t smell good either; it’s a disaster. If I had to choose the two worst perfumes I’ve ever tested, this would be one of them. For me, it’s just a skin balm, nothing more… The bad: EVERYTHING. The good: It’s a different perfume, it proposes something different. The funniest part is when you look at the price: €160 for 100ml, WHAT?… It seems like a bad joke… A 1.5 out of 10 (thanks).
Beyond what it smells like, the application proposal is baffling. Do I put on perfume or cream? It doesn’t bother me, just that it’s weird. That creamy style creates another kind of experience. The scent has nothing of the Sauvage DNA; it’s spicy, peppery, resinous lavender that soon blends with woods. It’s not novel; it clearly recalls Armani Code EDT, so it’s not surprising. Does it smell good? Yes, if Armani Code is one of the sexiest scents ever created. Projection and sillage are null, longevity is about 7 hours. In conclusion: if you don’t like Sauvage, this doesn’t have its DNA. If you like Armani Code, don’t buy this Dior just for the application and lack of sillage. Pro point: the quality and the new creamy experience.
It’s not quite the disaster they’re selling it as. Its biggest handicap is the price, which seems high, but it’s a very pleasant perfume. It reminded me a lot of Kilian’s Vodka on the Rocks.
Reminded me of a mix I made with a salon oil from Reflection to which I added alcohol, lol. Let’s say this has the quality to justify the price, but the supposed ‘Diorian’ status is, in my opinion, pure delusion. But hey, that’s life: we live in an era of expiration dates and questionable quality. You have to flood the market with hundreds of perfumes a year, skimp on quality, and let marketing, snobbery, and the need for belonging do the rest.
I wore it after testing it, and the first surprising thing is the liquid color (milky white) and how it sits differently on the skin. It was the only Dior I had left to try, and now I understand all the fuss. You have to use the atomizer wisely; the first time I realized you have to spray from a distance and corrected my mistake. Scent: I like the Sauvage line, but this smells totally different, like it’s from another brand. It smells like a heap of musk and herbs, clean, ideal for the office or for not drawing attention (not everyone wants to smell like a night party), relaxing and unique. Longevity: I’ve had it on for 6 hours and it still smells strong, though it faded a bit but holds up. Price: €130 for 100ml? I want to know what they’re thinking at DIOR to consider this insult to the customer good. Would I recommend buying it? No.
I’ve been using it for several days and I like it quite a bit, I agree with the user below. Did they make mistakes? Yes, maybe they tried to hitch a ride on the Sauvage brand to get attention and generate controversy. The scent has no resemblance to the Sauvage DNA; the most distant relative I see is the Elixir version. If the intention was to hitch a ride, they would have called it ‘Elixir – Cologne Blanche’ and used a white bottle, because it’s a total change of direction. It’s a scent for personal enjoyment, not scandalous or sexualizing; it evokes cleanliness, confidence, serenity, and relaxed elegance. For me, what I value most is the experience, that it’s a feeling, a second skin, not just a smell. I remember Chanel’s slogan: ‘A sensation doesn’t need to be strong to impose itself.’ That’s this: a fresh-warmth that accompanies you all day, without an explosive perfume smell. It starts discreet and waits for the air to lift it so you can feel it as your own. If you’re looking for a super sexual alpha male, this isn’t it. Here there is cleanliness, serenity, and natural sophistication.
That garbage can never be a Sauvage; it’s incredible how disgusting they are and yet reviewers praise them. Do buyers a favor: quit, you bastards.
It’s not a bad perfume, but only if you’re looking for discretion and not to draw attention. It gives an elegant vibe without being loud; although it doesn’t leave a trail even with many sprays, it smells great for personal use. For the price, I expected it to last a bit longer; it’s not horrible, but it’s not the best from Dior. You won’t get compliments; it’s good for daily wear if you want to smell good and go unnoticed.
It smells like pomade. I don’t remember what pomade that was, but it smells exactly like Dior EF. The difference between the pomade and this ‘fragrance’ is that the pomade projects and lasts a little longer 😄
If it cost 50 euros, I’d probably buy it for casual daily use, but otherwise, not a chance. Plus, the packaging looks like empty milk.
Surprisingly, I liked the scent. The opening doesn’t convince me; it smells like too much pepper, but after a few minutes, it becomes very soft, I think it’s the lavender and amber; it gives me a feeling of soft chai tea. This, along with the EDT, are the only ones in the line I like. The downside is it has zero sillage and mediocre longevity. I liked the idea of the liquid, but it smells more like moisturizer than perfume. If it were a body cream, I’d buy it, but they’re selling it as a perfume at a price where you expect standard longevity. This is below average: at one hour it smells like skin, and by two, it’s gone. Depends on the skin; my brother had the same experience. Honestly, I don’t recommend it; try it before buying.
Where do I even start? It smells bad, as everyone says, but it’s impossible to describe because it has nothing to do with what you’d expect at first. It’s an original concept but so synthetic that it’s hard to analyze; you have to stick your nose in it because it’s an airy scent—you barely feel it, but others notice. The interesting part is what it leaves in the air, but there’s a long way to go from that to smelling good. I agree with everyone: Dior tried to innovate and missed. It’s risky; at some point, it repulses me and feels exhausting, and it’s way too expensive. I feel like they killed the Sauvage line with this; I doubt anyone will risk buying blind again, which they used to do. Questionable quality, weird scent, and outrageously pricey. That’s it.
To be honest, it’s not worth the asking price. It smells cheap, disgusting, and doesn’t last at all. Also, be careful where you apply it because it stains clothes.
It smells clean, but not pleasantly clean, like I just sprayed a cleaning product on myself. I simply don’t like it at all.
Starts with a pepper bomb, then settles into a shy lavender and amber blend. It lacks projection and doesn’t last long, but if it were a regular perfume, it would be perfect: smells spectacular and works year-round. I use it to relax at home. Once you have it, you miss it.
This fragrance is excellent, niche quality. I find it hilarious that people say it strays from the Sauvage line. Of course it smells! Among the predominant notes in this line, lavender comes through in Eau Forte. It’s not for everyone, sure, but if you want to smell different from the hype surrounding this line, I 100% recommend it.
As an intentional, kitsch, or abstract fragrance: 10/10. As a synthetic aroma product whose solvent, water, completely fails to dilute the oils and makes you feel like you’re wearing semen on your clothes and skin: 100/10.
It doesn’t smell bad, but for the price, it’s not worth it. The scent feels like baby disinfectant, and the only thing worth paying for is the longevity.
It’s a very simple fragrance and nothing special. Too expensive for what it is and I definitely wouldn’t buy it.
One of the simplest and purest fragrances I’ve smelled; every ingredient is clearly noticeable. But what kills me is its super high price. Otherwise, it’s a good perfume, but only that: an extremely expensive good perfume whose scent isn’t worth it.
Very interesting, a Dior water-based Sauvage. It’s not much to my liking, but I can’t say it’s bad. It has a very heavy and herbal opening. Something linear but strong. Although there are many downsides to buying an aquatic perfume, for that reason I wouldn’t recommend buying it.
My review is basically an XD. It doesn’t smell bad, but it’s not Sauvage and doesn’t carry any Sauvage DNA. Plus, the water sits on the skin like milk and projects almost nothing. Definitely don’t buy this perfume. They messed it up badly. If I had it, I’d use it on my pets since it’s just water and won’t hurt them, but otherwise, it’s a hard NO. And look at the price—NO NO NO.
I tested it on my skin and it smells like cockroach poison. Also, the liquid turns milky. I don’t recommend it.
The batch is quite herbal, like the smell of plants when you cut the stem. It reminds me of Lalique Pour Homme, but the latter wins hands down: it’s more woody, citrusy, balanced, and pleasant. Sauvage Eau Forte doesn’t seek balance; its herbal note (or what I interpret as such, maybe they used the lavender stem instead of the flower) dominates and is very sharp. I understand why many people, and especially Sauvage fans, don’t like it. It retains little to nothing of its mother’s DNA.
It’s interesting how the ‘Hate’ and ‘Hype’ of the community work; in this case, the former. Luckily, thanks to the negative reviews and poor reception, I know it doesn’t sell much, so I found it at a great price. That deal convinced me to buy this criticized flanker blind. I grabbed the 60ml just in case. At first, it smells clean, watery, and fresh: moss, lavender, and woods. I liked it! It’s similar to the other Sauvages only in the bottle and name. The key to not being disappointed is knowing from the start: don’t expect an office perfume or a seductive scent. Eau Sauvage Forte is energetic, relaxing, clean, and fresh. The name says it all: it’s a ‘strong water,’ a creamy cologne with character. Lasts 5-6 hours on skin, all day on clothes. My advice: spray on skin before dressing, the fabric holds it better. The trail is low, not much projection. I hope this encourages you to try it or not, so it stays on sale xD. PS: Out of my 20 perfumes, my girlfriend (who doesn’t smell the others) said ‘What a nice perfume!’ the first day I wore it at home and hugged her. PS2: I also bought a 100ml backup bottle.
It’s a very particular fragrance; I like the scent, there’s a burst of lavender. It takes me to a cold, forested place. Good proposal, I don’t know if it could be improved.
Dior never fails, and this fragrance confirms it… for me, along with the Elixir, it’s the best in the line.
Another fragrance from Mr. Kurkdjian that smells like insect repellent to me; the same thing happened with Dior Homme Parfum 2025 😡.
I bought a 2024 batch and I don’t understand the hate for this fragrance. People say it doesn’t project, doesn’t last, stains, etc. The truth is, it projects a ton; it’s a bomb and I’m not exaggerating. It’s a mix of lavender, resins, and woods that, wow, I absolutely love, and it lasts and lasts. The fact that the liquid is milky doesn’t matter because it disappears completely once it dries. Honestly, before listening to and believing any negative comments online, try it yourselves because the claim that it doesn’t last is a lie and it has high quality. Totally honest review.
I don’t get the hate. To my taste, it’s one of my favorites and smells amazing. It lasts a long time on my skin and the projection is normal. I found it for $140. Compared to the Elixir, which cost me around $200, of course I like that one more. Among the Sauvages, I’d rank Eau Forte second.
After several months, Sauvage Eau Forte is an intense aromatic fragrance with a defined identity and little compromise. From the start, it shows an attractive, clean, and modern spicy kick with immediate impact without being aggressive. Within minutes, it settles into a prominent, well-structured lavender heart, accompanied by a marked musk that gives it body and an electric feel. This contrast between the spicy opening and the aromatic heart is its greatest achievement. It’s not versatile; it has character and presence, so I don’t see it as ideal for everything. It works best when the setting complements it.
JEWEL. It’s not for everyone; it’s a heavy, mature scent, and if you over-spray, it can be annoying. Regarding the hate it receives, I celebrate its existence because that’s how I get this bomb for $100 in my country. The rejection makes sense in an era dominated by sweet Arab vanillas and sugared apples from Valentino or Yves Saint Laurent. Against that backdrop, it goes against the grain; most criticisms are shallow, just repeating what some ridiculous person said on TikTok, not formed opinions. It’s not milky; it’s aqueous. Is it white? Yes. Creamy? No. It dries down normally. Performance: projection, longevity, and sillage are more than enough. It’s a true resin bomb with dusted lavender, like talc, starting fresh and clean but over time the wood emerges with force, becoming more serious and heavy. I see it as ideal for winter: intense, spicy wood. Personally, it drives me crazy; every time I see it, I open the cap two or three times and the scent changes, lingering on my nose for twenty minutes. If your favorite is Le Beau by JPG, you’ll never wear this, and that’s perfectly fine.
Honest review of a 10ml sample: the perfume is rich and feels very close to the original Sauvage. The opening can seem strong, with moderate projection and sillage, lasting about 7 hours. You can wear it for anything. Arg is always on sale and I love the scent, but I wouldn’t buy it because the milky consistency isn’t a pleasant experience; it feels like they washed your neck. 8/10.
Spicy, intense, and brilliantly sharp with a fresh, clean, and vibrant green lavender. All of this sits under a shower of resins that keep it bold and confident until it dries down to a musky wood finish. It’s wild, green, and dominated by fresh spices and lavender. It stands apart from the common Sauvage as an aquatic aromatic version perfect for everyday wear—a refreshing break from sweet, overused scents. I’m not sure if it’s my style—definitely not—but its quality is undeniable.
