Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sauvage
A modern classic with electrifying freshness and a bold, spicy signature. Instantly recognizable, its crisp citrus and ambroxan punch make it a go-to for those who want to be noticed and remembered.
Statement
Our Verdict - X Cite Sensible
X-Cite Sensible chases Dior Eau Sauvage, Roudnitska's 1966 masterpiece of citrus, jasmine and oakmoss. It captures that understated, gentlemanly elegance, but renders flatter and skin-close, the timeless original's petal-like delicacy thinned for a budget price.
