What do reviewers say about Sauvage and Malbec Noir?
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
Malbec Noir punches well above its price. The Pinot Noir heart gives it a distinctive personality you rarely find in this tier. The drydown is warm and refined without straying into heavy territory.Malbec Noir
