Which Should You Buy?
If you're a fan of Sauvage Parfum, good news: Mr. Charming is a bang-on dupe according to early word, delivering that familiar airy citrus and balsamic vanilla vibe at a fraction of the price. A solid option if you know what you're getting into and want to save some cash.
A brashly masculine scent that's a brilliant value alternative for those who love Elixir-style fragrances, but it's not for everyone. Expect a divisive reception.
