Original

Eau Sauvage Extreme Eau de Toilette bottle

This one's a battleground, mate, with strong opinions on its evolution. Loved by those who cherish its classic, masculine character, but intensely disliked by many who feel subsequent reformulations have butchered the original 1984 gem. A real love-it-or-hate-it contender, especially if you're chasing that elusive vintage magic.

What makes a good dupe?

A good dupe captures the essence of the original fragrance - the same mood, the key accords, the general character - at a more accessible price point. It doesn't need to be a molecule-for-molecule copy. The best dupes feel right for the same occasions and carry a similar energy, giving you more ways to enjoy a scent profile you love.

We assess dupes by comparing the fragrance profile of the original against the dupe: shared accords, overlapping notes, similar longevity and projection, and occasion suitability. Our similarity scores reflect how closely the two fragrances align in character - not just raw ingredients.
