Dior Eau Sauvage is a Cologne launched in 2015, created by François Demachy. Eau Sauvage opens with Bergamot, Grapefruit, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Petitgrain, Pink Pepper, Galbanum, and Hedione, and dries down to a base of Vetiver. Dior's Eau Sauvage carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A modern, zesty citrus blast that gets the job done for hotter days. It's divisive, with some loving its fresh energy and others finding it too synthetic or simply preferring the original. Performance for a 'cologne' concentration is surprisingly decent, though some find it fleeting.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its fresh, clean, and inoffensive citrus-aromatic profile makes it highly suitable for office and casual wear, especially in warm weather. While not overly strong, the projection and longevity are good enough for these settings. It's a bit too casual for formal events, and just right for sport thanks to its refreshing nature.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Eau Sauvage Cologne opens with an invigorating burst of sparkling bergamot and grapefruit, swiftly joined by juicy mandarin. A green, slightly peppery heart of petitgrain and galbanum adds a sophisticated edge, preventing it from straying into simple 'lemonade' territory. The drydown settles into a clean, subtly woody vetiver, maintaining that fresh, vibrant feel right to the end.
