What do reviewers say about Eau Sauvage and Lacoste?
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 people have never smelled this. That's the draw. Carnation in the heart gives it an edge most modern fragrances avoid entirely. There's a boldness here.Lacoste
