Happy Wednesday fragrance family! In today's CFR - Classic Fragrance Review one of my all time faves, the classic and timeless Fragrance from Dior, Eau Sauvage circa 1966! A classic NEVER dies... Let me know in the comments what are your TOP favorite classic scents and which one(s) you'd like to see featured in the near future! Sound off in the comments...
I know you covered the edp, but I’d love to get your thoughts on the rerelease of Moustache 1949. I just got it the other day, and I’m addicted. It’s like a visit to the barbershop in a bottle, blasting the senses with the citric chemicals of an old-time aftershave/hair tonic before moving into a wonderfully rounded, powdery lavender that embraces the wearer.
Today's version of Eau Sauvage works for me. It's fresh, citrusy, but with a mature, refined vibe. Think a summer day in a bottle: lemon sunshine, jasmine flowers, vetiver grass. The main difference between vintage and modern is the oakmoss had to be removed for regulatory reasons. Oakmoss, for me, always dated the fragrance and made it too heavy for me to wear. So I actually prefer the current version. It projects just right for a gentleman and lasts deceptively long. I often catch a beautiful scent in the air in the early evening and realize it's the Eau Sauvage I sprayed on in the morning.
I second all of this. It’s summer in a bottle, with a sheen of crisp elegance. I won’t even bother seeking out vintage bottles, since the freshness is so crucial to the effect of Eau Sauvage. Citrus doesn’t age well.
A great fragrance. As a youngster in the mic 70's, I got a bottle as a gift and it's been my favorite ever since. The description given is spot on. I look for the fragrance profile of Eau Sauvage in modern colognes, but haven't found anything that really compares to this timeless classic.
My first boyfriend wore the original Eau Savage and it was very magnetic! I would recognise it anywhere, very evocative and can transport me back to that time instantly! The new Savage is loved by many but the original is in a league of its own! This was how Dior became such a leader in Perfumery.....their women' fragrances were also amazing, Diorella was the female version of Eau Savage, Sicilian Lemons and herbs one of the best perfumes for Summer, then my own signature scent was Original Miss Dior, has no resemblance of the many present day Miss Diors! The dry down on this original Miss Dior was very gentle and feminine and Diorissimo was more for the evening and was muskier. That perfumer was with his weight in Gold! What a legend.
With all due respect I doubt your bottle from the 80s smells the same to the original scent. Even under the best conditions you'll lose most of the top notes in that time. I find the current formulation extremely pleasant and far from the watered down mess described in the video. I'm sure it's a much light version but it has plenty of projection and longevity for me. And I love putting it on and popping my bluray of Bullit on and imagining myself in a mustang on the California freeway in the 70s.
Just had my first experience with Eau Sauvage yesterday and my perfumer at Sephora made me a sample which I am wearing today! Love this fragrance and love it's classic and elegant scent! Wonderful review and had no idea Dior has changed the fragrance but will be looking for a vintage bottle to add to my collection! Thank you for the review and look forward to watching your future videos!
I love Eau Sauvage, but I hate this „better buy the vintage“ bullshit!!! ES was and is a perfume which lives from the freshness of its components. The citrus top notes go off after a few (3+) years. And that is then just off-gone ES and not „the stronger older formulation“. 🙄 If you keep your 2012 and later bottles for some years, the collor will darken as well! 😉 I‘ve collected ES from each decade, in original, sealed packaging, and not even one of them was still fresh. Most people confuse the off-gone smell with „stronger/more powerfull/longer lasting/oakmossier/whatever... 🙄
Adore this one. Yes the reform knocked the legs out from it, but it still to my nose is one of the very best designer spring/summer perfumes to be had: 6.8oz for $145 USD shipped right to my door. Excellent review as always. SOTD for me is Lapidus Pour Homme. Because more times then not the only school is the old school.
Thank you for your thoughts - I agree this stuff is great but reform has kinda hurt the original feel - I also really love Lapidus pour homme, such an outstanding powerhouse composition!
Dior Eau Sauvage is my signature scent. Lucky I’ve been able to procure some vintage bottles and that scent I absolutely adore. Daily I wear the latest release and indeed when spaying some on your clothes it lasts all day. In summer you don’t need to do this since projection increases. All in all a great timeless fragrance endorsed by none other than Steve Mcqueen and Alain Delon.
Ok this is no doubt one of THE FINEST! fragrance I have ever smelt in my life, just one thing.....a fragrance over 9 years old is probably past it's best potency wise, I do have aftershaves that are over 18 years old that still smell the same, Versace Blue Jeans to be more specific but this has spent it's entire life in a dark cool place stored in the tin so it has the advantage
Another excellent review, Max. Love Eau Sauvage, and along with Chanel Pour Monsieur and aramis classic, my all time favorites. Would be fine with only these three master pieces.
Thx Max. Great review! I just picked up a bottle of Eau Savage, and I'm so happy I did. Wish I hadn't waited so long. Phenomenal. I'll be getting a big bottle as soon as this is gone. Just love it
Great review. Just tried vintage eau sauvage sample yesterday for 1st time. Will be finding biggest vintage unsprayed bottle I can asap. Fantastic stuff.
Got a bottle for my pops for Christmas. He is used to cheap fragrances and thinks they smell good so I can’t wait to see the look on his face when he smells this. Me personally, I use Acqua Di Gio and I love it so I also can’t wait to smell this one!
These videos are so much better than that J guys. Thanks giving us this vintage cologne video. I just got a couple of vintage cologne samples to try and I think I’ll just order a bottle of this one. Me as probably most people can’t afford 3 or 4 100 dollar plus bottles of colognes. I can afford a few bottles of good lass expensive ones. This sounds like one I will get.
Awesome video max I have tried eau savage because my dad uses it he loves it and I love it as well but I have not really tried the other flankers of this lineup but I will definitely try to give it a sniff next I see one of the flankers
I purchased a 2021 batch in 2024 no problem at all 👍🏻 the trouble with buying vintage you don’t know if the scent has gone off !!! The current version works for me 😊
Hard to beat this Fragrance no matter how much coin you drop on something else. It doesn't surprise me that the true ultimate rebel The Late Great Steve McQueen would be associated with this masterpiece. Thats great info! I love this even more now! Long Live Eau Sauvage!!😜😎
We tend to overlook the good things available currently and praise those that are old and discontinued like we are not considering much about 2017 eau sauvage parfum. I love it and I heard that it's closer to the original.
Nice video obrigado Max! Why don't you ask Junior Barreiros what he thinks if the In The Box clone of this classic? I'm wearing it right now and the interplay between the vetiver, oak Moss and citrus notes in the dry down is just lip smacking delicious! It's called Eau de Sauvegy and the clone house is In The Box. Unfortunately I don't believe it's available outside if Brazil but if you like I'd be happy to send you a decant.
Hey what do you think about Eau Sauvage Cologne? As far as I know is like a fresher version of the original but I have not tried it yet. Also I would like to hear your impressions about the Guerlain Homme line and flankers.
Right now I'm infatuated with that old school Citrus verbena Neroli amalfi I have Eau De Rochas Lauder Estee Lauder YSL Pour Homme Eau Pour Homme Armani 2bottles Eau Sauvage Eau Sauvage Extreme 2bottles Dunhill Edition and Dunhill by Alfred Dunhill are on the way should receive them on the 4th I only need Pour Monsieur Chanel now
I have a vintage bottle along with a brand new bottle purchased a few days ago. Honestly I like the newer version much better. I just wish the performance was a bit longer. No worries though I’ll just reapply throughout the day.
@@merrychristmas2263 why is it wrong? Your body sucks up all the chemicals in fragrance if you apply to your skin. It's horrible, man. If you knew what your were spraying on your skin, you would stop. Anyways, I have always gotten WAY more performance from any fragrance by spraying my clothes and sometimes on the back of my head.
@@merrychristmas2263 so many fragrance channels say they spray on clothes to extend the performance, and it does work. A lot of people say performance sucks on their skin because they either have dry skin, skin that absorbs the fragrance, rubs off, or sweat pushes it away from the skin or wears it down quicker. Spraying on clothes always works best for me.
It was my dad's fragrance and my first one! Sadly, the present formulation has nothing to do with the original. I found a good substitute with Annick Goutal's Eau de Monsieur... Slightly different opening but after 15 minutes they're virtually indistinguishable to my nose
Hey Max, I purchased a 200ml of this from a department store and when I opened it, it was an edt splash with no atomizer. I returned it and told the sales staff. They gave me another 200ml, and it was another splash. Is your 200ml a splash or does it have a sprayer?
Hey Max, it's Dhawal from Bangalore ( India). Loved your video as always. Would you advice where can I get the vintage bottle of Eau Sauvage ? Any website where I can find it?
Hey Max! Would be great if you could do a comparison version of EDT, EDP, Cologne, and Intense. [Please don't do no longer original versions!] Very hard to find this comparison in one review! That said (and I guess saying again), please skip the versions that are no longer available.
I picked up a new version of the EDT , I also have an older version of the EDT, the older version is slightly darker and has a push on click top and not the magnetic, An idea of the age of the older version I have ? Thanks
Wait, ES Parfum really is discontinued? After barely 2 years? I didn't even check it, i only tried Extreme, but didn't really like it, smelt something like heavy anise
I saw a bottle of this from the 1970s for sale, but I read that old perfumes go off. This would be over 40 years old, so surely it won't smell like it did in the 1970s. Isn't it safer to buy new perfumes, even if modern guidelines in perfume formulation have tampered with the original formula.
Yes, it's still there. My late Grandpa used to wear this, I mean the original, so when I bought a new bottle last year and asked my Grandma to smell she instantly got emotional and said yes, that's the one! I previously showed her the parfum version and she said that's defenetly not the scent she knew.
Nice review but hey, when the viewers request a review of fragrance we want this review in order to decide if we are gonna purchase this particular fragrance. We dont want to go to a museum and buy the version of "earlier than 2011". This is not a history channel its a guide for us to buy something today. Your whole review was a history lesson, Do i have to go to an auction house to buy the "earlier version " ? Nice review but with no other purpose.
I didn't appreciate this one when I first tried in some years ago...mainly because I had fragrance allergies or more than two decades, and it triggered those negative olfactory memories. Regardless, as much as I like it, I don't feel that it can hold a candle to Eau Savage Parfum (2011 edition). Cheers! Conversely, the under 30 crowd will probably not like this one because it's not sweet, gourmand, or project that department store DNA. In fact, many will say it smells dated or old-man'ish. Sad, but true.
I have been a dedicated user of Eau Sauvage since 1969. Unfortunately, they have changed the formula and even the bottle since then. The recent formula is a lot lighter in colour and milder. And the new bottle, am not so much a fan of it. I've looked and tried many, many fragrances for the past several years to find something that closely mimics the original scent but for me, nothing matches the clean, unpretentious male scent of the classic Eau Sauvage.! DIOR, please bring back the quintessential Eau Sauvage with the original elegant bottle!
Thanks for sharing Willy. It's a tragedy that companies change their fragrances so much over the decades. I completely agree that current formulations are a shadow of what EAU SAUVAGE once was...

Hi Mark,nice channel and nice presentation.Can make revision to Safari perfume,carolina herarra 1991 release.Thanks
Do you recommend the EDT or EDP? I want to place an order from Mark Mobley.
I have a bottle from the late 80’s, as well. Very interesting fragrance. Reminds me a lot of John Varvatos’s “Artisan Blu” for some reason. Thoughts?
I know you covered the edp, but I’d love to get your thoughts on the rerelease of Moustache 1949. I just got it the other day, and I’m addicted. It’s like a visit to the barbershop in a bottle, blasting the senses with the citric chemicals of an old-time aftershave/hair tonic before moving into a wonderfully rounded, powdery lavender that embraces the wearer.

Exactly. And I owe an old bottle too but I also prefer today's version. A bit more modern overall
Love it and I am in my mid 20s . A perfect classic
But you are a Gentleman, mid 20's or not. Take good care, Benjamin!
You made me get into this masterpiece... Your passion for this scent has convinced me! I'll pick it up soon! Thank you big Max!
I bought this in my youth, absolute classic Max !!! Good to see you praising this Dior gem. Regards from UK.
Cheers Steve!

I have always and always will LOVE EAU SAUVAGE and I use it even if it is meant for men. That is how much I love this fragrance!
Picked up a 100ml bottle for only $40 from letgo. Love it!
Thank you, Max. I've been looking to get this for a while.

I find the 2017 parfum is not bad at all. A little more versatile and wearable all year round as opposed to the original 2012 parfum.
Dior Eau Sauvage is my signature scent. Lucky I’ve been able to procure some vintage bottles and that scent I absolutely adore. Daily I wear the latest release and indeed when spaying some on your clothes it lasts all day. In summer you don’t need to do this since projection increases. All in all a great timeless fragrance endorsed by none other than Steve Mcqueen and Alain Delon.
Can I ask you if the older Eau Sauvage manufactured many years ago still has the same scent?
Ok this is no doubt one of THE FINEST! fragrance I have ever smelt in my life, just one thing.....a fragrance over 9 years old is probably past it's best potency wise, I do have aftershaves that are over 18 years old that still smell the same, Versace Blue Jeans to be more specific but this has spent it's entire life in a dark cool place stored in the tin so it has the advantage
Smelled this today, i wasnt keen at all, however i massively appreciated it for the time it came out and why it has lasted so long
Another excellent review, Max. Love Eau Sauvage, and along with Chanel Pour Monsieur and aramis classic, my all time favorites. Would be fine with only these three master pieces.
TRUE! Thanks for your feedback...
The best cologne ever. I wear it everyday and it is perfect.
Bought my 3.4oz for $20 on the discount shelf at Perfumania. It’s a solid work scent.
Thx Max. Great review! I just picked up a bottle of Eau Savage, and I'm so happy I did. Wish I hadn't waited so long. Phenomenal. I'll be getting a big bottle as soon as this is gone. Just love it
Timeless scent. Great review, thank you Max.
Thanks JM
My favorite fragrance. I rock this year round!!! Trying to get my hands on the flankers but no luck. BTW...nice blazer!
Thanks Nadz
Blindly bought this wonderful fragrance and it turned out to be 2010. very glad. I haven't tried it with a magnetic
Great review. Just tried vintage eau sauvage sample yesterday for 1st time. Will be finding biggest vintage unsprayed bottle I can asap. Fantastic stuff.
Thanks Michael, this stuff is really great - they don't make 'em like this anymore! :/
One of my favorite from Dior. Great one ☝️ again @ maxforti.
Thank you Lyndon

Great review and I enjoyed it and I'm gonna try it if I can find it and have a blessed day
Neutered? Oakmoss was pretty much banned, what could they do? They probably worked to get it as close as possible.
He’s clueless . He doesn’t know what he’s talking about half the time.
Great Video Max! Thank you.👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻🔥🔥🔥
My number 1 from dior iconic fragrance nice review max and keep going 👍
Great review Max. My favorites from the last century are: Polo, Fahrenheit, drakkar, heritage, Antaeous, jazz and kouros. Keep the great work.
Awesome video max I have tried eau savage because my dad uses it he loves it and I love it as well but I have not really tried the other flankers of this lineup but I will definitely try to give it a sniff next I see one of the flankers
Thanks Carlos, I appreciate the feedback!
Not interested in the vintage version no one can get. What about the new one that’s available?
I purchased a 2021 batch in 2024 no problem at all 👍🏻 the trouble with buying vintage you don’t know if the scent has gone off !!! The current version works for me 😊
It’s nostalgia but DNA is not modern anymore.. sure just for remembering those beautiful days I keep it for my self
Mehdi Scent, if you’re going for a classy/gentleman vibe, you’d still succeed
Hard to beat this Fragrance no matter how much coin you drop on something else. It doesn't surprise me that the true ultimate rebel The Late Great Steve McQueen would be associated with this masterpiece. Thats great info! I love this even more now! Long Live Eau Sauvage!!😜😎
Love this stuff I had a older one it was great but can't find any before 2011 the new one smells great but nowhere what is was also love the perfume
Great review, mate! Can you do a review on the 2017 version? Since that's what most of us have access to and the rest are harder to find.

Great video, Max! One more subscriber here curious to get your take on the Cologne version!
Love it. My favourite. Great review! Now please review Marc Jacobs
This product is discontinued. Could you please recommend me an alternative? I really love this fragrance, but I cannot buy this in my country.

Hi Max, Dior Eau Sauvage Classic OR Dior Eau Sauvage Extreme ?
I was born in 1966 so must now obtain a bottle.
Use to Rock Blue Stratos back in day as a young teenager👍🏻
One of my favorites. Top Shelf quality. Now where to find a vintage bottle?

I haven't tried that one yet, I also want to pick up Fahrenheit cologne as well!
The cologne is not good...pick this One here👍👍😊
Hey Max, I purchased a 200ml of this from a department store and when I opened it, it was an edt splash with no atomizer. I returned it and told the sales staff. They gave me another 200ml, and it was another splash. Is your 200ml a splash or does it have a sprayer?
Pulling the trigger on this soon max
How different is the scent today to the original formulation?
I just ordered my first bottle
Suitable for which season?
Have been using this perfume since 1975
I have this in the ORIGINAL VINTAGE 1000MML SHOWPIECE size in my collection
The one they sell at sephora currently, would you recommend that one? It looks like the bottle you showed end of the video.
No...lol didn’t u hear. It’s nothing like the original.
Is this a Day or night scent or go both.
Supposedly worn by Marlon Brando and Steve McQueen (actor). Where could I find a sample?

Hey Max! Would be great if you could do a comparison version of EDT, EDP, Cologne, and Intense. [Please don't do no longer original versions!] Very hard to find this comparison in one review! That said (and I guess saying again), please skip the versions that are no longer available.
I picked up a new version of the EDT , I also have an older version of the EDT, the older version is slightly darker and has a push on click top and not the magnetic, An idea of the age of the older version I have ? Thanks
How do they compare?
is the parfum version closer to the older release?
Wait, ES Parfum really is discontinued? After barely 2 years? I didn't even check it, i only tried Extreme, but didn't really like it, smelt something like heavy anise

How close is the new formulation compare to the vintage ? ..is it close when it comes to scent ?
Is the DNA still there ?
Yes, it's still there. My late Grandpa used to wear this, I mean the original, so when I bought a new bottle last year and asked my Grandma to smell she instantly got emotional and said yes, that's the one! I previously showed her the parfum version and she said that's defenetly not the scent she knew.
Which is better edt or edp

Would it be redundant to have both Eau Sauvage Parfum 2017 and Eau Sauvage EDT? Are they too similar?
No.
Not at all, very different fragrances with some common ground.
I didn't appreciate this one when I first tried in some years ago...mainly because I had fragrance allergies or more than two decades, and it triggered those negative olfactory memories. Regardless, as much as I like it, I don't feel that it can hold a candle to Eau Savage Parfum (2011 edition). Cheers!
Conversely, the under 30 crowd will probably not like this one because it's not sweet, gourmand, or project that department store DNA. In fact, many will say it smells dated or old-man'ish. Sad, but true.
I couldn't agree with you more in regards to crowd under 30 not really appreciating this one!
Is this for ladies
Nice review.
I wish i can get the original one , the before 1988 version
Good video, well done 👏 ✔
Very good, but I prefear the cologne.
does it stain the clothes ?
how do you know what year it is?
By the bottles and caps... All very different. Plus you can checkfresh the batch code.
Is this a blind buy bud
Believe it or not , I love eau sauvage and hate dior sauvage !!
Given the choice of both I would go for eau sauvage as well! ;)

I've looked and tried many, many fragrances for the past several years to find something that closely mimics the original scent but for me, nothing matches the clean, unpretentious male scent of the classic Eau Sauvage.! DIOR, please bring back the quintessential Eau Sauvage with the original elegant bottle!
Thanks for sharing Willy. It's a tragedy that companies change their fragrances so much over the decades. I completely agree that current formulations are a shadow of what EAU SAUVAGE once was...

It’s not for me. You lost me at barber shop, and minty. I would never buy any minty perfume . All I get is toothpaste.
Max, grow the beard out!
Come on it stincks ! so average and common
S Jan What ?!?! This is ‘pure class’ in a bottle !
Your ignorance of grammar matches your ignorance of fragrances.
@@Bigwave2003 what you spend your time on... Whatever, it still smells bad
maybe you're talking about Sauvage, not Eau Sauvage!
