What do reviewers say about Sauvage and Esquenta?
Sauvage EDP is unapologetically bold. Synthetic in the best possible way, clean, sharp, designed to announce. If you want to whisper, this isn't the bottle.Sauvage
A quiet heat. Not the kind that announces itself when you walk in, more the kind that makes a room lean closer. The rum and vanilla do the work. Someone always notices.Esquenta
