Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Sauvage EDT
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.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Sauvage EDP
SMEL.' Sauvage follows Dior Sauvage's zesty bergamot-to-ambroxan arc closely, but the synthetic musk drydown is thinner and less radiant than the original's signature skin-like sillage.
