Can’t thank you enough for this informative video. Allowed me to buy sauvage from a private party with confidence. Even had the guy unwrap the box and show me the cap, atomizer, and bottom batch code. 🙏🏻
Florin Petean nah it’s not the same quality and it could be made with dangerous notes and chemicals that can burn your skin, sure you can spend maybe 40 dollars on a fakie but it won’t be as strong it won’t smell the exact same, and it won’t last long, i suggest to order on online discounters like fragrancenet.com 👍🏼
@@SirMudkipPwnz Than why does my One Million replica perform 8 hours+? The original doesn't last 10 minutes and the fake that i have last 8 hours and smells even better like a better blended fragrance. Mine doesn't sting my skin to be honest only bad fakes sting...
The fake is actually very easy to spot. First the atomizer is very different in looks and in function. Second the fake doesn't have the bee in the cup. Third the straw in the real one is alomst invisible, while in fake it is milky, thick and in your face. Also the color of the bottle itself is much more transparent than the real one. The packaging is also very different color. Fonts are also different not by much, but to me it is very noticable. Lastly the scent itself may be similar, but it's not the same, and most importantly fake doesn't last at all, while real deal is known of killer projection and longevity 10hrs+ . One more thing to note 200ml genuine SAUVAGE doesn't have small wall in the packaging, so I wouldn't take it as a sign of fake. Plus there are fakes with bee on the packaging, but it's off centre. All in all fake is not difficult to spot :)
GoodBoyMIKE The fakes are assembled from different parts and components. You will always find some that were assembled drom other components than the fake I showed in this video. The fakes can be very different from one and other because there is not only one manufacturer that produces fakes. It is always better to know what to look for if you want to spot a fake, this is why I present every component in it's own video chapter. Thanks for the comment!
GoodBoyMIKE - Agreed with all except one thing - longevity is the weakest side of Dior Sauvage. In ideal conditions it can barely last up to 5-6 hours. The similar case was with the Eau De Sauvage, since it was majorly built from citrus notes, very hard to register and easy to misplace. But for this kind of scent, such a short projection is a catastrophe. It is the main reason why many people are avoiding it.

im guessing the fake one does not have the famous bee logo for dior homme on the inside of the cap. Am I the only one who has seen the bee logo inside the cap?
thank you one thing to point out as well: they messed up the spelling in arabic. fake: للإستعمال الكازجي real: للإستعمال الخارجي so this is a good sign for the arabic readers.
Hey. Man. Totally thanks. I had bought a bottle of Doir Sauvage today july 27th 2024..thankfull after viewing your channel I'm glad that mine, after watching your comparison, is true. Everything you said about the true cologne was true..I am subscribing. Many thanks.
I got played yesterday by a shoplifter. The plastic packaging and box looked so genuine even had the bar code tag from 'The perfume shop'. When i opened it didnt really pay attention to bottle just smelt it and thought yh thats right.
Bro you made my day I just purchased a 6.8 oz bottle of sauvage from Walmart at a unbelievable price so I went here to check dude everything checks out thanks
Walmart usually has random top notch fragrances on their website for very cheap. I got a 3.3 ysl y from them for 70 shipped. And yea it scares u into thinking it’s fake but as long as u buy from Walmart directly and not 3rd party you’re good.
Great job.. I had my original CD bottle out comparing it .. never noticed that u can twist the cap off and the magnetic difference while testing.. very good 👍
Usually if the scent at the beginning smells like pure alcohol, then it is very old, left in the heat for a long time, or has been diluted with alcohol... ergo, your scent fades away very, very quickly
Frazzle-Same for me. Bought from a reputable EBay seller and the scent last for only about a minute - weak af as you aptly put it. The seller sells very convincing counterfeit. I'm just thankful EBay sellers have to stand behind their product or else EBay will step in.
Thanks for making these videos! U never know with all these companies out here which ones sell authentic products. Just because they say it's 100 % authentic doesn't mean it is. I have Versace Eros, Dylan Blue, Man eau freche, Dior Sauvage, and some others and thanks to you I know I have the real deals. Thanks again and keep it up bro!
In the box: front bottom printing (200ml, 6.8 FL OZ) are embossed. On the Bottle: The cap pumps out when turned from one side or another; The atomizer is black on the original, white on the fake; On the fake the magnet is floating (make noise), on the original is fixed (no noise). The inner tube is almost invisible on the Original. The original has a bee inside the cap (also embossed in the box). The original have a 'box inside the box'. The rest only can only be saw with them side by side.
I noticed from your video that they got the Arabic letters on the bottom of the box wrong The fake one: الكارجي Which is a word that does not exist in arabic The real one: الخارجي Means external These words were originally meant to mean "for external use only" So basically if you saw الكارجي on tbe bottom of the box thats a dead giveaway of a fake juice
Personally I noticed in the ones (the fake came with an original box!) I bought the main differences are: 1- the writing isn't as strong and you can scratch it. 2- the cap doesn't rise when twisted. 3- the visible small tube.
i bought a dior i am not sure if it is authentic ,,who sold it to me says yes.......mine one the magnet and whole bottle is same as your original but in the back of the box the number is 6R03 and the bottle has 6R03 and the lid of the box does not have the bug and it is complete white and it has another little movable black cover...... ...do you guys think the mine one is authentic/????????????????????????????? or should i have to return it????????????? or the box only could be fake or whole the perfume could be fake ....>>>>>>>>>>>??????????????
I just came back from Colombia, where there are tons of illegitimate fragrance shops. I bought Sauvage, opened it, and as you said the smell is authentic but it was definitely weaker. I didn't have a bottle to compare it to down there, but I knew I'd be able to tell just from the smell, I love Sauvage too much.
OnlyBlix Crooks that produce the fakes are into organised crime, maybe in Colombia there are some fake fragrance manufacturers, I can not know. But I'm surprised you say that there are shops open to the public that sell fakes without any authorisation.
I wouldn't recommend buying cologne off Amazon. Reading comments, people saying they are receiving fakes. I bought mine from Macy's site and it's real.
If you bought a fragrance from Macy's that does not mean Macy's is the only seller of authentic fragrances. There are many. It is always the buyers choice to choose the seller.
I bought a tester recently and it's really cheap but man it's like the original, it even has the polarized magnetic cap! The only flaws are no batch code, white atomizer and the CD logo on top of the atomizer.
Report the seller to Dior and your local police department. Don't waste your time and money with fakes. They are harmful to your health. Don't put them on your skin (skin deseases or even cancerogenic agents) and don't spray them on your clothes (respiratory problems). Fakes don't follow any HealthCare Legislation.
Guys the turning of the magnetic cap and it not coming out doesn't necessarily mean it's fake. I have two bottles from Macy's and they both are genuine and one has the cap come of it you twist meanwhile, the other stays on.
Thank you for sharing the info with us. There may be minor faults on authentic fragrances, this is why there has to be an overall check on the fragrance. It's not only one aspect to take into consideration.
Great video! Thanks for the time you put into doing these, they'e very very helpful! Hey I noticed one thing the second time I watched the video...I noticed the bar code on the bottom on top of the batch code, is slanted on the real one and was perfectly straight on the fake one. Interesting!
I just opened my Sauvage package. The first thing I noticed is that I couldn’t see the straw on the inside of the bottle. On the fake you can see the straw clearly. I had to put my phone flashlight up to the bottle to see the straw. Really great design feature.
@@tattoofun2003 I was typing my comment while watching the video. 30 seconds after I posted my comment, you said the same thing. :) Great video. Thanks.
Hey men, I just bought Sauvage from ebay and I don't know if its fake or not. The box is the real thing, but the bottle i just don't know. The cap does not get centered and inside the cap there is no bee, just CD of Christian Dior. I seem not been glued like in the video. The bottom of the bottle it looks real but there is no serial number. I don't know if the company just get out another version of it because at the box its says 5104 and not 5Z03. I bought it from depotclereance at ebay.
The bottle must have a batch number, maybe it is hard for you to see it. What about the smell and quality of the juice ? Go to a local shop and test a Sauvage there so you can compare it.
Fragrance Tattoo Well, the smell is amazing and perform really good. I double checked the bottom of the bottle and there is no batch number anywhere, sure I will go, smell it and compare.
I've seen this video over a year now. By that time, I can't find any sauvage being sold in our local store/mall (so.. completely clueless about the scent), but just a week ago I managed to find one online, seller said it's a tester from Singapore. Sold practically cheap, about 13 bucks. So I managed my expectations and took the risk of buying a too-good-to-be-true authentic tester perfume. Based on this review, I only see three physical flaws in comparison with the legit Sauvage. 1st, Box has no "fly" underneath the top flip-cover (shockingly the cap has). 2nd, Bottle has no engraved batch number (bottle is flawless, the tiny straw is almost invisible to the naked), 3rd, the "CD" on the top of the spray nozzle is a bit off (again, shockingly, spray dispersion is perfect, color black and the magnetic cap opens when twisting). As for the scent, there's no extraneous hint of alcohol at all, it smells very unique, from the initial spray, after few hours, up to its dry down, I smell different notes. Fake or not, I must say, it's a money well spent.
Leinad Cojuangco If you use fakes you are probably going to get a very cheap cancer or skin desease ... and you are paying for it. Please report the seller to Dior.
There is no need for any formula from insiders. Fragrances can be cloned using machines that identify the chemical composition used in the material that's beeing analysed.
Watch about the batch number on the bottom of the box and bottom of the bottle on the sticker? There’s a website named checkfresh where you can check the batch to see if it’s real.
What about the batch code ? You don't need any website to check the batches of Dior. The logic is simple if you understand it. Check my video Dior Homme Intense, I explained the batches there.
They have improved the box and the cap. The flap now has the bee image on it, but it is not glossy, just flat. The cap now has the bee in it too. I bought a fake off eBay and am going through the returns process as we speak. I know its a fake as I have a genuine bottle for comparison. There are still a lot of flaws and errors on the fake...plus it smells synthetic, like glue and plastic with scent thrown in.
@@tattoofun2003 I always try to purchase from reputable online perfume stores and have never bought a fake from them. I did buy a bottle of _Ungaro III Gold & Black_ that was 7 years old (expired) off Amazon last week but generally, I've been okay. The last time I bought a fake was off eBay. If you _do_ buy from eBay, then caveat emptor!
The discrepancies between the two are quite obvious when you look at them via video. The blue (silver) is beautiful but the brown is lackluster in comparison. And the printing is just sloppy....I can't believe the bottles are like that. The magnets are probably sloppy if you really look into it....oh, you just did. After a few uses the magnets will lose polarity because they're not placed properly. Counterfeit products are shit because it feels good to buy something that you've worked hard for. Edit time- It would be great to know what the company says if you sent it in or the link of their response.
Dior as the other designers are constantly fighting counterfeiting. I don't need to make them aware of the fakes, they know. The crooks are taken down, others rise in their places. Whoever is part of the fake network is answering / will be answering the international laws.
Got a Dior Sauvage in my country. Something about it was just a bit off. Smell just didn't seem right. The little atomizer of mine was white, no batch code on bottom and came in a pictured sleeve as well with Johnny Depp so knew it was a fake.
Easier way to tell the real mccoy from the fake is to look at both boxes. The real one is embossed where it says 100ML and 3.4 FL.OZ, where the fake is printed with white writing.
Not all fakes are the same because they are manufactured by other crooks. This is why I always show all possible differences between the real and fake.
But if someone made a fake using a real box and real empty Sauvage bottle, that would be much harder to spot. Many frag heads keep their boxes and bottles so seems like there would be a market for saved boxes and empty bottles.
I got given a fake that was SOOO obvious. The bottle was different, with a rounded edged, glossy cap, the liquid inside was brown instead of blue, and the label read 'SAVEGE DOI'. The fragrance was horrible. It burnt my nostrils and gave me a headache.
Steve Reekie That is not a fake, there are some crapy manufacturers that do something similar to beat seller : Bleu de Chance for example, I did see some Sauvage imitations as well
I doubt whether I will ever get to smell the real Dior either, as it is obviously only for the very rich. I don't know anyone who could afford to buy a fragrance at the price of the real Sauvage. Over $150 in New Zealand !
All fragrances are fake really. I'm a nature photographer in a remote part of New Zealand and like to be able to smell the real smells of nature, the forest flowers and the damp earth. I rarely meet anyone who wears a fragrance, and, when I do, I'm revolted. How dare they pollute the natural air with their disgusting fake scents?
Everything is expensive in New Zealand, especially New Zealand made products. We export everything cheaply, but no one here can afford to eat New Zealand lamb, and the price of butter is ridiculous.
You can also watch my Real vs Fake on Sauvage Eau De Parfum. It's shorter and much straight to the point. I no longer do long videos. Now I edit the shit out of my videos to make them as short as possible.
It's hard to describe smell. No fake will match an authentic, this is why fakes are fakes. They don't follow any Healthcare Legislation. They contain chemical compounds that are harmful to human health.
You should have mentioned that the real one whenever you recap the letter D and inverted D doesn't change position or direction whatever you do to change it rotates and settles back in place
I watched the video you only showed when rotate it gets the cap off, what I'm saying is when you try to put the cap back on the bottle in different directions it rotates to settle in the same position that means that both the bottle and cap have magnets
I just bought one from a black market and three things that didn't check out the bee sign in the box and the atomiser cap spritzer is white and the bottom bottle doesn't have batch code. They say its a tester item for suavage. I'm assuming its fake however I'm not entirely sure.
I can not know if you bought an authentic or a fake. In time, esthetic changes of products do occur, so an authentic from 4 years ago could be different than the same authentic fragrance from this year.
Just brought a savauge from a site on Facebook the pictures sent you can see the indent of the ML so hopefully mine will be good. I've zoomed in on the batch code exact same as the real one
Just bought a 100ml bottle of Sauvage edt from eBay UK. Lucky I noticed afterwards it wasn't right. Just little details. Was very hard to spot. It did however have the same batch code as yours 5S03. The batch code writing/font was really thick in white. The 100 ML and 3.4 FL.OZ was highlighted in white and should be plain and just indented. It didn't have the square numbers. Shrink wrap looked a bit dodgy with pointed corners. The box card was white in the middle on the bottom and should be the same colour all the way through I think just like with Creed Aventus boxes. The seller had already sold a few bottles and was offended when I said they were fake but gave me a refund pretty much right away. Just because they have already sold a few bottles and have 100% feedback doesn't mean shit. The fakes are indeed getting better and harder to spot so be careful. Also the low price was what got me. Luckily I caught it before it was despatched. Damn. Thanks for the video.
19kislacy92 The bubble test is a method I used many years ago to check if fragrances were genuine. That is not always accurate, you can get the same time of bubbles in both authentic and fake, it depends on how the bottles were stored
Leonard Gratil Don't use it if it is fake. It will give you skin diseases or respiratory complications, it could go as far as cancer. Fakes don't follow any healthcare legislation. Report the seller to Dior.
@@smiley7672 I can not know only based on the nozzle. There are many counterfeiters, each of them has different components they use. If you bought it from a reliable seller, you should not worry, reputable sellers always sell authentics.
Great video, so where did you get it and how much did you pay? Are you in the US? This is why I buy my Chanel's from department stores, and online I buy from the sites that I have dealt with for 3 years now. I would not buy Dior from ebay or amazon.
I'm in Europe. Fakes are usually sold for a price little under the authentic counterpart so it's "value" ensures it's sale. It depends who is selling them. There are sellers that actually don't know they sell fakes so they sell it for the same price. I am not exactly sure but there may be fakes of different qualities out there, so the ones with higher quality are sold for higher prices.
7 ปีที่แล้ว
thanks man u saved me lots of dollars, I watched this video and decided to buy fake one when u told its same, thanks alot
I got a 200ml version of this, and it matches the original one in every aspect, except for the holder inside the box for it doesn't have that additional wall. Should I be worried?
Jamili Andrade I never saw a 200ml Sauvage so I can not know if you should be worried. I did not see fakes of 200ml Sauvage, I doubt they exist, so 99,99% I believe you are fine. Especially if you bought it from an authorised retailer. You can also sample Sauvage in a shop, if yours has the same quality then it is all ok.
Question. I got this off eBay for a low price. It looks exactly like the real one mag works same butterfly on inside of cap box same. Does not smell of alcohol. However if I spray my arm I don't smell it five minutes later and it sprays slow is it real?
Fragrance Tattoo I would say Mont Blanc Individuel would be a good one to investigate. I hear there are fakes of it, and I think that one would be very hard to tell apart.
You're saying in the video that the scent smells the same. Well, I'd argue that it smells _vaguely_ similar, but either way, whether it does or doesn't, it only lasts about 40 minutes. The performance of a fake is generic, its weak bad and pathetic. The genuine one is beautiful, long-lasting, great floral and oceanic marine freshness that resounds with accords of profound enchantment.
Of course any authentic is the real deal. I remember the fake beeing very very close to the authentic. I did not use it after the video so I can tell the performance but the way it started it was serious. I wash my hands after the videos. Lately I do not spray on my skin the fakes.
@@tattoofun2003 Yes the opening can be very similar, but the dry-down is where fakes give themselves away. Poor performance and cheap smelling. Don't blame you for washing the fake off, could be drain-cleaner for all we know!
Thanks for the tips. I bought the 100ml EDT on Ebay for a crazy price and was convinced it was gonna be a copy but it passed all your testa for the real item so well happy.
I don't recommend buying from Ebay. The seller should have good reviews and also other fragrances on sale for reasonable prices. I doubt any seller from EBay could sell for crazy prices a lot of fragrances, maybe only of the fragrances were stolen.
@@tattoofun2003 I don’t normally for fragrances but UK RRP is £74 and you might find £10 off but I paid £26 hence my concern but previous and overall reviews were very positive.
@@tattoofun2003 If it is then its way better than the one in your review as everything matches the real one including turning the magnetic lid. I was going to suggest I send you the link on ebay and you order one to review. But item no longer available. However the seller is still active. Strange thing is seller is based in Australia and it did take 2 weeks to arrive. Maybe it was stolen as you suggested (in bulk as they had many for sale when I bought).
Just bought mine for $40 CAD ...My cap doesn't twist of with the magnetic and also has a clear tube.But i have the bee on box and cap.Sprays like the normal one
The counterfeit fragrances of the top line houses can be very difficult to spot if you don't have an original to compare. Fragrance consumers of top houses are on the whole very discriminating and perceptive consumers. It's entirely possible another fragrance reviewer / commenter may have unconsciously used a counterfeit in their review. Also, given the liberal return policies of some retailers counterfeiter will buy the originals and then return the counterfeit for credit/ exchange. If you think you might have inadvertently bought a counterfeit from a reputable retailer return the bottle and have then confirm the codes with their stock list. Authorized retailers stock is coded to prevent unauthorized dumping or discounts. Retailers can tell if the fragrances you bought from them matches the code of their in store stock.
Thank you fro your comment. I never bought fakes from authorised retailers. From my knowledge fakes are not sold there. I only get fakes from individuals, never got fakes from retail distributors.
I know fakes when I see them. I can tell by a good resolution picture. I can never be punked, I get them especially so I can present them to the general public. The more knowledge the fragrance community has, the less people will be punked with fakes. And yes, it is true, for an untrained eye, if you don't have the original next to a fake it is very hard to spot the fake.
I got a fake bleu de Chanel that looks and smells exactly like the real one. Except that it just doesn’t last as long. He only got about an hour of smell

Bro you made my day I just purchased a 6.8 oz bottle of sauvage from Walmart at a unbelievable price so I went here to check dude everything checks out thanks
Josh Riddle you are welcome
How much did you get it for
Fragrance Tattoo I appreciate all you do for the fragrance community. Thanks for taking time out of your day to make these videos.
Walmart usually has random top notch fragrances on their website for very cheap. I got a 3.3 ysl y from them for 70 shipped. And yea it scares u into thinking it’s fake but as long as u buy from Walmart directly and not 3rd party you’re good.
Great job.. I had my original CD bottle out comparing it .. never noticed that u can twist the cap off and the magnetic difference while testing.. very good 👍
If the smell is the same I don't really have an issue with it tbh
It may contain dangerous ingredients for your skin, have you ever thought about this?
Usually if the scent at the beginning smells like pure alcohol, then it is very old, left in the heat for a long time, or has been diluted with alcohol... ergo, your scent fades away very, very quickly
I swear the three fragrances first shown are EXACTLY what I am using at the moment: Bleu, Sauvage, and Versace Eau Fraiche
I just bought one from a seller with perfect feedback and lots of it for their fragrances and it's weak af.
Frazzle-Same for me. Bought from a reputable EBay seller and the scent last for only about a minute - weak af as you aptly put it. The seller sells very convincing counterfeit. I'm just thankful EBay sellers have to stand behind their product or else EBay will step in.
Same i bought one from Ebay, and it has the details like the real one has but it doesn’t last long. Only for like 30 mins
@@ThePsychoPearl__ same wtf dude
Thanks for making these videos! U never know with all these companies out here which ones sell authentic products. Just because they say it's 100 % authentic doesn't mean it is. I have Versace Eros, Dylan Blue, Man eau freche, Dior Sauvage, and some others and thanks to you I know I have the real deals. Thanks again and keep it up bro!
If you buy from authorised retailers you should not worry about getting a fake.
also with the magnetic cap, on my sauvage if i install cap it always "squares up" the CD symbol on top of cap
Got eye. Got me checking mine
In the box: front bottom printing (200ml, 6.8 FL OZ) are embossed. On the Bottle: The cap pumps out when turned from one side or another; The atomizer is black on the original, white on the fake; On the fake the magnet is floating (make noise), on the original is fixed (no noise). The inner tube is almost invisible on the Original. The original has a bee inside the cap (also embossed in the box). The original have a 'box inside the box'. The rest only can only be saw with them side by side.
Humberto Ramos Costa The video has a 100ml (3.4 fl ounces) fake, there is no Sauvage fake on 200ml size.
I noticed from your video that they got the Arabic letters on the bottom of the box wrong
The fake one: الكارجي
Which is a word that does not exist in arabic
The real one: الخارجي
Means external
These words were originally meant to mean "for external use only"
So basically if you saw الكارجي on tbe bottom of the box thats a dead giveaway of a fake juice
Human X thank you for sharing here this info!
Any chance you can write down all the lettering it says in Arabic the real one please because there is 2 Arabic writings on the box
my sauvage box does not have that inner wall. Although mine is a 200ml bottle and box....everything else on the original matches mine.
Thank you so much. I retail perfumes and you just saved me a client
I am happy to hear that you sell authentics and that my video helped.
Personally I noticed in the ones (the fake came with an original box!) I bought the main differences are: 1- the writing isn't as strong and you can scratch it. 2- the cap doesn't rise when twisted. 3- the visible small tube.
Also has regular font CD on the fake instead of the CD logo on top of the atomizer
i bought a dior i am not sure if it is authentic ,,who sold it to me says yes.......mine one the magnet and whole bottle is same as your original but in the back of the box the number is 6R03 and the bottle has 6R03 and the lid of the box does not have the bug and it is complete white and it has another little movable black cover...... ...do you guys think the mine one is authentic/????????????????????????????? or should i have to return it????????????? or the box only could be fake or whole the perfume could be fake ....>>>>>>>>>>>??????????????
send me a private message
jesica razo i have a 6X04 also its has the bug, i bought 2 days ago
I know this is old, but its original. you can check the batch number on door's website.
Number One Alvarez is yours original?please reply asap
I just came back from Colombia, where there are tons of illegitimate fragrance shops. I bought Sauvage, opened it, and as you said the smell is authentic but it was definitely weaker. I didn't have a bottle to compare it to down there, but I knew I'd be able to tell just from the smell, I love Sauvage too much.
OnlyBlix Crooks that produce the fakes are into organised crime, maybe in Colombia there are some fake fragrance manufacturers, I can not know. But I'm surprised you say that there are shops open to the public that sell fakes without any authorisation.
please do a video on dolce and gabbana for the one
I will as soon as I will buy a new The One.
I don't think it will happend until spring or so.
michael solomon I did The One real vs fake video. Check it out and let me know if it helped you.
I wouldn't recommend buying cologne off Amazon. Reading comments, people saying they are receiving fakes. I bought mine from Macy's site and it's real.
If you bought a fragrance from Macy's that does not mean Macy's is the only seller of authentic fragrances. There are many.
It is always the buyers choice to choose the seller.
Where is this fake from I need it 😂 I go through this like water
Anya Clarissa that's too daam funny 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
The pipe inside the original one can be barely seen but the fake one is like crazy noticable.
Yes it is.
"It's the same smell, I swear."
It doesn't matter if it only lasts for 20-30 minutes.
if you buy in store they will not allow you to open it. the only option to view what's the real and not is only the box and the letters on it
yes, this is why I do detailed presentations on Real vs Fake. I preffer covering all the details about the celofane, box, weight, packaging, etc
24:22 reminds me of the maid from family guy "no no no"
th-cam.com/video/MF283pORG2E/w-d-xo.html
I bought a tester recently and it's really cheap but man it's like the original, it even has the polarized magnetic cap! The only flaws are no batch code, white atomizer and the CD logo on top of the atomizer.
Report the seller to Dior and your local police department.
Don't waste your time and money with fakes. They are harmful to your health. Don't put them on your skin (skin deseases or even cancerogenic agents) and don't spray them on your clothes (respiratory problems).
Fakes don't follow any HealthCare Legislation.
@@tattoofun2003 thanks
The name SAUVAGE has a different writing. Have a look on the letter *G* 🔭
Guys the turning of the magnetic cap and it not coming out doesn't necessarily mean it's fake. I have two bottles from Macy's and they both are genuine and one has the cap come of it you twist meanwhile, the other stays on.
Thank you for sharing the info with us. There may be minor faults on authentic fragrances, this is why there has to be an overall check on the fragrance. It's not only one aspect to take into consideration.
+Fragrance Tattoo the batch number on the fake matches up on checkcosmtetic.com
+jortega61924 Batch numbers are easy to copy.
Great video! Thanks for the time you put into doing these, they'e very very helpful! Hey I noticed one thing the second time I watched the video...I noticed the bar code on the bottom on top of the batch code, is slanted on the real one and was perfectly straight on the fake one. Interesting!
I just opened my Sauvage package. The first thing I noticed is that I couldn’t see the straw on the inside of the bottle. On the fake you can see the straw clearly. I had to put my phone flashlight up to the bottle to see the straw. Really great design feature.
Yes, on authentics the tube is barely visible !
@@tattoofun2003 I was typing my comment while watching the video. 30 seconds after I posted my comment, you said the same thing. :) Great video. Thanks.
Damn this is a really good fake
lmao
Yes. It is the best fake I've seen so far.
maybe the fake scent is not long last
@@raeedharunabuharun No, the fake scent last maybe a minute even on clothing.😞
I'm going to buy Dior Sauvage for the first time this week.. Thanks for the tips
Buy from a reliable seller. Check his reviews first if you buy from a third party website if you find a good price.
@@tattoofun2003 thank you
My mans took a MOMENT OF SILENCE FOR THE FAKE ONE!
DID HE PREP FOR THIS VIDEO?!😲😂😂😂😭😭😭😭😭⚰
The video is spontaneous. I can not prepare for the video, the reactions happen on the spot as I go along with the umboxing and impressions.
Hey men, I just bought Sauvage from ebay and I don't know if its fake or not. The box is the real thing, but the bottle i just don't know. The cap does not get centered and inside the cap there is no bee, just CD of Christian Dior. I seem not been glued like in the video. The bottom of the bottle it looks real but there is no serial number. I don't know if the company just get out another version of it because at the box its says 5104 and not 5Z03. I bought it from depotclereance at ebay.
The bottle must have a batch number, maybe it is hard for you to see it. What about the smell and quality of the juice ? Go to a local shop and test a Sauvage there so you can compare it.
Fragrance Tattoo Well, the smell is amazing and perform really good. I double checked the bottom of the bottle and there is no batch number anywhere, sure I will go, smell it and compare.
there have to be a batch code
i was going to gothat route but realized i wouldnt know if it were fake or not
This is comedy 🤣 his reaction is priceless!!
He's funny, right ?
I have the 60ml /2 fl oz version.
The box does have the same wall inside the box; however The bottle does move a little bit when shaken
Your "what the hell" sounds cute 😂
Thank you!
I've seen this video over a year now. By that time, I can't find any sauvage being sold in our local store/mall (so.. completely clueless about the scent), but just a week ago I managed to find one online, seller said it's a tester from Singapore. Sold practically cheap, about 13 bucks. So I managed my expectations and took the risk of buying a too-good-to-be-true authentic tester perfume. Based on this review, I only see three physical flaws in comparison with the legit Sauvage. 1st, Box has no "fly" underneath the top flip-cover (shockingly the cap has). 2nd, Bottle has no engraved batch number (bottle is flawless, the tiny straw is almost invisible to the naked), 3rd, the "CD" on the top of the spray nozzle is a bit off (again, shockingly, spray dispersion is perfect, color black and the magnetic cap opens when twisting). As for the scent, there's no extraneous hint of alcohol at all, it smells very unique, from the initial spray, after few hours, up to its dry down, I smell different notes. Fake or not, I must say, it's a money well spent.
Leinad Cojuangco If you use fakes you are probably going to get a very cheap cancer or skin desease ... and you are paying for it.
Please report the seller to Dior.
24:19 LMMMMMAAAAAAAAOOOOOO
You are doing A good job !
Faked factory must have some insider in dior providing the secret formula.
There is no need for any formula from insiders. Fragrances can be cloned using machines that identify the chemical composition used in the material that's beeing analysed.
Damn you talk slow and 30 minutes. Had to put this on 2x
Check out my newest videos, they are shorter and straight to the point.
also the CD logo on top of the real cap always faces forward because of the magnet
Watch about the batch number on the bottom of the box and bottom of the bottle on the sticker? There’s a website named checkfresh where you can check the batch to see if it’s real.
What about the batch code ?
You don't need any website to check the batches of Dior. The logic is simple if you understand it. Check my video Dior Homme Intense, I explained the batches there.
looking at my fake’s and the only difference is bottle joint that can be feel and printed batch code at the bottom,not carved
Don't waste your time and your health with fakes !
i just stumbled onto this channel this stuff really opens my eyes
lost cloud I am working on new fake fragrance videos. I hope you will find them useful.
They have improved the box and the cap. The flap now has the bee image on it, but it is not glossy, just flat. The cap now has the bee in it too. I bought a fake off eBay and am going through the returns process as we speak. I know its a fake as I have a genuine bottle for comparison. There are still a lot of flaws and errors on the fake...plus it smells synthetic, like glue and plastic with scent thrown in.
There are many fake counterfeiters, this is why fakes looks different. Some do a better job than others, either way, a fake will always be a fake.
@@tattoofun2003 I always try to purchase from reputable online perfume stores and have never bought a fake from them. I did buy a bottle of _Ungaro III Gold & Black_ that was 7 years old (expired) off Amazon last week but generally, I've been okay. The last time I bought a fake was off eBay. If you _do_ buy from eBay, then caveat emptor!
best source of information about fake fragrance on youtube. I am subscribed and thumbed up! Nice work.
The discrepancies between the two are quite obvious when you look at them via video. The blue (silver) is beautiful but the brown is lackluster in comparison. And the printing is just sloppy....I can't believe the bottles are like that. The magnets are probably sloppy if you really look into it....oh, you just did. After a few uses the magnets will lose polarity because they're not placed properly. Counterfeit products are shit because it feels good to buy something that you've worked hard for.
Edit time- It would be great to know what the company says if you sent it in or the link of their response.
Dior as the other designers are constantly fighting counterfeiting. I don't need to make them aware of the fakes, they know. The crooks are taken down, others rise in their places. Whoever is part of the fake network is answering / will be answering the international laws.
Got a Dior Sauvage in my country. Something about it was just a bit off. Smell just didn't seem right. The little atomizer of mine was white, no batch code on bottom and came in a pictured sleeve as well with Johnny Depp so knew it was a fake.
The "i" in Dior on the front of the box is different also.
Hakim عبد الخالق yes, the base on "i" of the authentic has a foot while on the fake it does not exist.
Easier way to tell the real mccoy from the fake is to look at both boxes. The real one is embossed where it says 100ML and 3.4 FL.OZ, where the fake is printed with white writing.
Not all fakes are the same because they are manufactured by other crooks. This is why I always show all possible differences between the real and fake.
Good work bro!👍🏽
We have to stop together the fake production by never buy any of this fake
But if someone made a fake using a real box and real empty Sauvage bottle, that would be much harder to spot. Many frag heads keep their boxes and bottles so seems like there would be a market for saved boxes and empty bottles.
Jason Vegan I don't see a mafia in refilling empty Sauvage bottles. If it would happen it would be an isolated case.
I got given a fake that was SOOO obvious. The bottle was different, with a rounded edged, glossy cap, the liquid inside was brown instead of blue, and the label read 'SAVEGE DOI'. The fragrance was horrible. It burnt my nostrils and gave me a headache.
Steve Reekie That is not a fake, there are some crapy manufacturers that do something similar to beat seller : Bleu de Chance for example, I did see some Sauvage imitations as well
I doubt whether I will ever get to smell the real Dior either, as it is obviously only for the very rich. I don't know anyone who could afford to buy a fragrance at the price of the real Sauvage. Over $150 in New Zealand !
All fragrances are fake really. I'm a nature photographer in a remote part of New Zealand and like to be able to smell the real smells of nature, the forest flowers and the damp earth. I rarely meet anyone who wears a fragrance, and, when I do, I'm revolted. How dare they pollute the natural air with their disgusting fake scents?
Steve Reekie Why are the prices so high ? Is it a tax policy ?
Everything is expensive in New Zealand, especially New Zealand made products. We export everything cheaply, but no one here can afford to eat New Zealand lamb, and the price of butter is ridiculous.
Never been this impatient watching a video, but thanks for the info
You can also watch my Real vs Fake on Sauvage Eau De Parfum. It's shorter and much straight to the point.
I no longer do long videos. Now I edit the shit out of my videos to make them as short as possible.
Happened to watch it today. And the fake juice u described is in the authentic new batches right now
It's hard to describe smell. No fake will match an authentic, this is why fakes are fakes. They don't follow any Healthcare Legislation. They contain chemical compounds that are harmful to human health.
Ty. I just picked up a 6.8 oz from ebay today. They have a 100% rating. I will be inspecting when I get it! TYVM for your review!!
+John Twomey Never heard of fakes this size, so you should not worry.
You should have mentioned that the real one whenever you recap the letter D and inverted D doesn't change position or direction whatever you do to change it rotates and settles back in place
14:24 I showed the caps. Please watch the video and post the comments after.
Thanks.
I watched the video you only showed when rotate it gets the cap off, what I'm saying is when you try to put the cap back on the bottle in different directions it rotates to settle in the same position that means that both the bottle and cap have magnets
Excellent comparison between the original and fake. Thanks for all the points you listed.
I just bought one from a black market and three things that didn't check out the bee sign in the box and the atomiser cap spritzer is white and the bottom bottle doesn't have batch code. They say its a tester item for suavage. I'm assuming its fake however I'm not entirely sure.
I can not know if you bought an authentic or a fake.
In time, esthetic changes of products do occur, so an authentic from 4 years ago could be different than the same authentic fragrance from this year.
There's too may comments, I couldn't read em all...but the real SAUVAGE font, there's difference at the font used...esp at the letter "A"
Hi. I want to buy Sauvage edp on Amazon. Would they have the real deal?
I'm a woman and do not wear men's perfume but love ladies ones yet I enjoyed watching this! Haha. Thanks!
Thank you!
Just brought a savauge from a site on Facebook the pictures sent you can see the indent of the ML so hopefully mine will be good. I've zoomed in on the batch code exact same as the real one
So ? How is it ? Is it all good ?
Where did you get the fake one I wanna make a comparison test
Ebay comes from india
But when i twist it right or left the cap easily remove too..but the inside you cannot see the tube and the smell was great
Just bought a 100ml bottle of Sauvage edt from eBay UK. Lucky I noticed afterwards it wasn't right. Just little details. Was very hard to spot. It did however have the same batch code as yours 5S03. The batch code writing/font was really thick in white. The 100 ML and 3.4 FL.OZ was highlighted in white and should be plain and just indented. It didn't have the square numbers. Shrink wrap looked a bit dodgy with pointed corners. The box card was white in the middle on the bottom and should be the same colour all the way through I think just like with Creed Aventus boxes. The seller had already sold a few bottles and was offended when I said they were fake but gave me a refund pretty much right away. Just because they have already sold a few bottles and have 100% feedback doesn't mean shit. The fakes are indeed getting better and harder to spot so be careful. Also the low price was what got me. Luckily I caught it before it was despatched. Damn. Thanks for the video.
markymark74 Please report the seller of the fake to Dior.
Good content you're producing, keep up the good work.
Metroidder I will !
i heard if you shake a original perfume the bubbles will last 10 seconds and a fake wont even last 5 seconds is it true? could you test it out?
19kislacy92 The bubble test is a method I used many years ago to check if fragrances were genuine.
That is not always accurate, you can get the same time of bubbles in both authentic and fake, it depends on how the bottles were stored
There is also a mistake in the word for external use (counterfeit written for the use of the air)
I look mine too..my atomizer is white no cd logo on it..but what matters to me is the smell..
Leonard Gratil Don't use it if it is fake. It will give you skin diseases or respiratory complications, it could go as far as cancer. Fakes don't follow any healthcare legislation.
Report the seller to Dior.
my cap does not work anymore .. if i twist it nothing happens (it worked for 3 days)
SkullK zi can not know if it is fake or not, the fact that the magnetic mechanism does not work anymore does not mean it is fake.
This is excellent work Sir,you've earned my subscription. Thank you.
Hello everything leads to believe my dior Sauvage is feal, except for the nozzle which is white. Is it fake?
@@smiley7672 I can not know only based on the nozzle. There are many counterfeiters, each of them has different components they use.
If you bought it from a reliable seller, you should not worry, reputable sellers always sell authentics.
Also, the "S" on the bottle. The way it is written on the fake its not the same as the one in the original.
Great video, so where did you get it and how much did you pay? Are you in the US? This is why I buy my Chanel's from department stores, and online I buy from the sites that I have dealt with for 3 years now. I would not buy Dior from ebay or amazon.
I'm in Europe. Fakes are usually sold for a price little under the authentic counterpart so it's "value" ensures it's sale. It depends who is selling them. There are sellers that actually don't know they sell fakes so they sell it for the same price.
I am not exactly sure but there may be fakes of different qualities out there, so the ones with higher quality are sold for higher prices.
thanks man u saved me lots of dollars, I watched this video and decided to buy fake one when u told its same, thanks alot
AS GAMİNG AND SOFTWARE The purpose is not to buy fakes, you may get cancer or some respiratory deseases from fakes ... for a few bucks less
@Srananpolak ! I do not know! But the chemical compounds fron the fakes are not aproved by HealthCare Legislation. So watch out!
Excellent video. I just ordered some from Amazon and can now put it to the test when it arrives.
+Patrick Hershey Did you get them ? How is it working out for you?
It's the real deal. Thanks to your video, I knew what to look for.
Patrick Hershey I'm glad I could help!
I got a 200ml version of this, and it matches the original one in every aspect, except for the holder inside the box for it doesn't have that additional wall. Should I be worried?
Jamili Andrade I never saw a 200ml Sauvage so I can not know if you should be worried.
I did not see fakes of 200ml Sauvage, I doubt they exist, so 99,99% I believe you are fine.
Especially if you bought it from an authorised retailer.
You can also sample Sauvage in a shop, if yours has the same quality then it is all ok.
Question. I got this off eBay for a low price. It looks exactly like the real one mag works same butterfly on inside of cap box same. Does not smell of alcohol. However if I spray my arm I don't smell it five minutes later and it sprays slow is it real?
jim Shoot me a private message with you personal email adress so I can het some pictures from you.
Thank you very much for taking the time to make these videos very grateful much obliged sir.
+coldblooded47 Is there any fragrance that you would like to see in a future Real vs Fake episode ?
Fragrance Tattoo I would say Mont Blanc Individuel would be a good one to investigate. I hear there are fakes of it, and I think that one would be very hard to tell apart.
Fragrance Tattoo thank you
You're saying in the video that the scent smells the same. Well, I'd argue that it smells _vaguely_ similar, but either way, whether it does or doesn't, it only lasts about 40 minutes. The performance of a fake is generic, its weak bad and pathetic.
The genuine one is beautiful, long-lasting, great floral and oceanic marine freshness that resounds with accords of profound enchantment.
Of course any authentic is the real deal.
I remember the fake beeing very very close to the authentic. I did not use it after the video so I can tell the performance but the way it started it was serious. I wash my hands after the videos. Lately I do not spray on my skin the fakes.
@@tattoofun2003 Yes the opening can be very similar, but the dry-down is where fakes give themselves away. Poor performance and cheap smelling. Don't blame you for washing the fake off, could be drain-cleaner for all we know!
Thanks for the tips. I bought the 100ml EDT on Ebay for a crazy price and was convinced it was gonna be a copy but it passed all your testa for the real item so well happy.
I don't recommend buying from Ebay. The seller should have good reviews and also other fragrances on sale for reasonable prices. I doubt any seller from EBay could sell for crazy prices a lot of fragrances, maybe only of the fragrances were stolen.
@@tattoofun2003 I don’t normally for fragrances but UK RRP is £74 and you might find £10 off but I paid £26 hence my concern but previous and overall reviews were very positive.
@@P1Fanatic £26 for 100ml ? It is a fake for sure.
@@tattoofun2003 If it is then its way better than the one in your review as everything matches the real one including turning the magnetic lid. I was going to suggest I send you the link on ebay and you order one to review. But item no longer available. However the seller is still active. Strange thing is seller is based in Australia and it did take 2 weeks to arrive. Maybe it was stolen as you suggested (in bulk as they had many for sale when I bought).
@@P1Fanatic Send me the link of the seller.
Did the fragrance ship from Australia as well ?
Just bought mine for $40 CAD ...My cap doesn't twist of with the magnetic and also has a clear tube.But i have the bee on box and cap.Sprays like the normal one
If you are talking about a fake, just send it back and report the seller to your local authorities.
Don't bother with fakes.
The counterfeit fragrances of the top line houses can be very difficult to spot if you don't have an original to compare. Fragrance consumers of top houses are on the whole very discriminating and perceptive consumers. It's entirely possible another fragrance reviewer
/ commenter may have unconsciously used a counterfeit in their review.
Also, given the liberal return policies of some retailers counterfeiter will buy the originals and then return the counterfeit for credit/ exchange.
If you think you might have inadvertently bought a counterfeit from a reputable retailer return the bottle and have then confirm the codes with their stock list. Authorized retailers stock is coded to prevent unauthorized dumping or discounts. Retailers can tell if the fragrances you bought from them matches the code of their in store stock.
Thank you fro your comment.
I never bought fakes from authorised retailers.
From my knowledge fakes are not sold there.
I only get fakes from individuals, never got fakes from retail distributors.
I know fakes when I see them. I can tell by a good resolution picture. I can never be punked, I get them especially so I can present them to the general public. The more knowledge the fragrance community has, the less people will be punked with fakes.
And yes, it is true, for an untrained eye, if you don't have the original next to a fake it is very hard to spot the fake.
Do they smell the same? Do fake ones last as the original?
Please watch the video. It is all there, check the chapters in the video description.
I got a fake bleu de Chanel that looks and smells exactly like the real one. Except that it just doesn’t last as long. He only got about an hour of smell
Check my real vs fake video on Blue de Chanel. Browse my channel.
If a fragrance does not last it does not mean it is a fake.
