Dior Sauvage toilet water for men appeared on the market relatively recently - in September 2015. But it was a rather expected event. An impressive advertising campaign, a well-known brand - all this guaranteed a high demand for Dior Sauvage. Customer reviews sharply undressed after they tried a new perfume. Someone fell in love, and someone hated this fragrance. Persistence, the Dior Sauvage pyramid, reviews of real customers - all this we will discuss later in the article.
New Released
The “father” of this fragrance is Francois Dimachy - the main perfumer of the Dior fashion house. Sauvage in French means wild, which is the main idea of spirits. Francois Dimachi in an interview claimed that when creating the aroma only high-quality natural substances were used, and sometimes in several excessive doses. This is a perfume that is inspired by wildlife, huge desert spaces and free wind.
Perfume Sauvage Dior - a fragrance of a modern man. He takes care of himself, looks attractive, but he has a core and fortitude.
Advertising campaign
The face of the perfume was Johnny Depp, which instantly played in favor of sales. The commercial on the official Christian Dior channel was watched by more than 24 million viewers, many of whom were immediately eager to get the coveted bottle. Indeed, the charismatic and courageous Johnny Depp not only plays the electric guitar, but also embarks on a journey through the California desert. There he meets one of the most famous representatives of the American fauna: a buffalo, an eagle and a wolf. Under the influence of the majestic nature, the actor decides to throw off worldly tinsel and symbolically bury all his jewelry in the middle of the desert. Then he enjoys the pristine wildness of the desert surrounding him. The director of the video was Jean Baptist Mondin. Impressive shots taken at the same location adorned the pages of many glossy magazines.
Perfume Pyramid
Often men's fragrances are created with a minimal amount of notes. But Dior Sauvage has a rather complicated pyramid:
- top notes are pepper and Calabrian bergamot;
- middle notes are geranium, lavender, pink pepper, patchouli, vetiver, chinese pepper, elemi;
- base notes are labdanum, cedar, ambroxan.
Cost Sauvage Dior
The price of the fragrance is predictably high, because it refers to luxury perfumes. A bottle of 60 ml will cost 4-5.5 thousand rubles, and 100 ml - 5.5-7.5 thousand rubles.
In addition, there is a whole line of personal care products on sale: aftershave, aftershave, shower gel and deodorant (in the form of a spray or stick) - all with Sauvage Dior scent. The price of these products is also very high. Lotion and balm cost about 3-3.5 thousand rubles, while gel and deodorants cost about 2 thousand rubles. everyone.
What do customers like at Dior Sauvage?
Reviews of fans of the fragrance note that this is a pretty classic men's perfume. The bright and fresh start of the fragrance will appeal to men of all ages. However, with the opening, the smell becomes more saturated, spicy and even slightly sweet. The rich wood base only enhances this impression. Therefore, Sauvage is still not a youth fragrance, but a perfume for men from 30 years old. It sounds expensive, stylish, according to customers - elegant, sophisticated, but cozy. The smell lasts for a long time on the skin and has a noticeable trail.
As for durability, there is no consensus: someone praises the aroma, says that it lasts for several days, even despite taking a shower, and someone, on the contrary, is dissatisfied with the “price-resistance” ratio. But this parameter is highly dependent on the skin of the perfume carrier.
Another important factor that many buyers mention is that women like this fragrance, and they even give compliments on this subject and are interested in what kind of perfume they are. Perhaps this is due to the use of classic components for men's perfumes, which are associated with masculinity and strength. It is a smell that can be worn all day.
Negative opinions
And what were the buyers of Dior Sauvage unsatisfied with? Reviews find many flaws in this perfume.
Many were misled by the advertising campaign, and they expected to get a fresher flavor. He is also often blamed for the lack of “zest” and the personality that should have accompanied the perfume, which is presented by the eccentric Johnny Depp.
As mentioned above, the author of this smell promised to use only natural ingredients. This is quite logical, given the image of the fragrance. But according to the impressions of the buyers, only bergamot is natural in it, and all the other notes are synthetic and, accordingly, do not smell very natural and rich. Given the price of perfume, this is a big minus.
Another drawback (which, however, is a virtue for many) is the richness of the aroma, which is similar to the aromas of the 80s and 90s and which gradually went out of fashion, giving way to lighter odors. For some this is a big plus, but for someone the smell seems suffocating.
Therefore, it is best to personally test Dior Sauvage in order not to be disappointed with the purchase or, conversely, not to miss this interesting fragrance.
