    What do reviewers say about Eau Sauvage and 1991 - L'Essence de L'Explorance?

    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
    It's not built to announce itself. The fougère structure is classical, the natural ingredients are anything but casual. Some will find it too quiet, too reserved.1991 - L'Essence de L'Explorance
