What do reviewers say about Crossmen Original and Eau Sauvage?
Built for a different era, when men wore one fragrance and it stayed. The projection is intimate, the longevity moderate, four to six hours depending on your skin. That's not a flaw. That's freedom.Crossmen Original
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
