    Real talk

    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
    Most fragrances lean sweet or soapy. This one doesn't apologize for its bitterness. The quinine gives it an edge, herbal, almost medicinal, that keeps it from being just another aromatic.Eau de Quinine
