What do reviewers say about L'Eau Cologne and Eau Sauvage?
Caron made a cologne that doesn't linger. Some will call that a flaw. The wearers who get it: they reapply on purpose. That first bright hit, bergamot, mandarin, green.L'Eau Cologne
Every house has done a fresh fragrance. The problem is most of them stop there, the opening shine, then blank. Eau Sauvage Cologne is different. François Demachy put all the energy in the top but made sure the heart has substance and the base has weight. It doesn't smell like most colognes, which smell like air fresheners and waiting rooms. Dior's version smells like it just walked in from the Mediterranean coast in the sunshine, citrus and woody depth coexisting, making you remember this isn't your grandfather's herbal remedy.Eau Sauvage
