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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

The crisp citrus opening and aromatic freshness make it ideal for spring and summer, while the spicy, woody, and amber base provides enough warmth for cooler autumn days. Its brightness can feel sharp in winter but remains versatile year-round.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal Sport

Vivid projection and freshness make it superb for casual, daytime, and outdoor settings, as well as sporty activities. Its assertive scent profile can be bold for close office quarters but works well for dates and informal evenings.

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
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium

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

Sauvage Eau de Toilette detonates with a piercing burst of Calabrian bergamot and black pepper, instantly awakening the senses. The heart thrums with aromatic lavender, geranium, and a medley of spicy peppers, while the drydown is a crystalline fusion of ambroxan, patchouli, and woody vetiver. Projecting confidence and modernity, Sauvage is both raw and refined, a clean yet assertive scent trail that lingers with magnetic, mineralic freshness.
