Scent Depot Score™

Very good

Strong category choiceA bright bergamot–pink pepper opening with light jasmine/orange blossom moves into an aromatic heart (lavender, elemi, geranium) before drying down to an Ambroxan/amber/cedar base that many find Sauvage-leaning. Expect strong first-hour projection, then a steady 8–10 hours on skin for many wearers, with variability noted.

More Information
Key strengths
  • Outstanding value for a 105 ml EDP with formal-evening utility.
  • Above-average longevity/sillage for many, with a smoother take vs. Classic blue scents.
  • Versatile across cooler seasons; works in office once the opening settles.
Things to know

  • You want a 1:1 Dior Sauvage Elixir clone—this is not positioned nor described as that.
  • You need perfectly consistent performance across batches/skins—reports vary.
