Which Should You Buy?
This is a towering icon, a true masterpiece for those who appreciate classic perfumery. Sophisticated, seamless, and eternally elegant, it’s often hailed as the true ancestor of Eau Sauvage.
A budget homage to Dior's 1972 chypre Diorella - dewy green melon and citrus over a peach-jasmine heart and a mossy patchouli base. French Fairy catches the fresh-bitter green character, but the all-important vintage oakmoss reads thinner and the composition flatter, missing the radiant depth of Roudnitska's classic.
