What do reviewers say about Eau Sauvage and Elixir 1870?
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
For those who want a fragrance that speaks without shouting. The herbal heart gives it an apothecary edge that separates it from the usual fresh scents, while the cedar-pine drydown keeps it grounded.Elixir 1870
