Synthetic, beautiful bottle
and did I already say synthetic? I got a small bottle of this fragrance, and must say: visually and haptically everything is right here. Bottle is heavy and feels good in the hand, the gradient is pretty and the magnetic lid and atomizer in usual Dior quality are all things that should actually excite most potential buyers. In my eyes, the prettiest Sauvage, at least visually. But then we come to the scent: the first spray brings the Sauvage DNA, so quite pleasant at first, but then it goes downhill for me. I can smell tangerine throughout, but it doesn't smell any less synthetic to me than the one in Davidoff Cool Water Intense, which is more than disappointing given the price difference. The scent generally seems very artificial, which is not to be expected for the price of such a large company, I know fragrances for much less money and from smaller companies that are x times less artificial. Who expects the Sauvage EDT performance here, should rather stay right with the EDT, because while the durability stands at about 7-8 hours, the sillage is a pure disaster. Neither on my skin nor on the skin of two of my friends is the fragrance smellable, you really have to stand 20cm next to the person so that you notice something, and I'm not particularly often sniffed in everyday life from this distance, but maybe that's just me :)

Conclusion: although not a terrible fragrance, it is in my eyes absolutely not worth the money, very synthetic and without any projection, at least on 3 test persons, maybe there is who, on which one discovers this fragrance even without a sniffer dog. The only thing that corresponds to the price is the bottle, but at Dior prices I just expect more than that.

Clear summer scent..
...you think to yourself when Mansur reads the scent pyramid. Mint, melon, that screams refreshment. Nope, at least not on my skin. It's hardly refreshing, if you're expecting something along the lines of Millesime Imperiale or Armaf Milestone, you'll be disappointed here. There's actually almost nothing of a fresh and light melon here, and in general the scent doesn't develop into a freshie at any point, which kind of makes me despair a bit, since I wanted to wear it in the summer. So for the warm season it's too "heavy", for spring it's not heavy enough. So for the transitional phase top, but there I ask myself again, how often you can really wear something like that and want. On the other hand, the fragrance is extremely cheap, so you do here basically first nothing wrong, there are numerous fragrances for twice the price, which smell much worse. The bottle looks surprisingly good in the price range itself, also feels very high quality except for the plastic lid. Maybe I just have a bad batch or my skin doesn't get along well with this scent, but somehow I imagined something completely different. If you have the opportunity to test it, make that, maybe you will like it, for nen 20 € fragrance is the total package already ne consideration worth.

Coconut Water Tangerine
In my eyes, the fragrance is discreetly underestimated, of course, this is not the most natural fragrance in the world, but who expects that at the price is also to blame. It starts with a coconut water-tangerine combination, quite fresh, quite interesting and for me at the time (I bought it at 16) irresistible. Was my signature scent for 2 years, complimented a lot, a few friends wanted to repurchase it, at the store I helped out at the time, 4! Employees wanted to repurchase this fragrance, so for people without extensive perfume knowledge, this is a very solid fragrance. In the back it becomes sweeter and fruity, the sillage and durability are very good on my skin, 7 hours are no problem, thus for me at that time also for evenings and first club experiences the perfect universal tool. My friends I have not told what this is for a perfume, because I think that since everyone should look for what own, because we do not all have to smell the same, would be boring at some point. Since I am older now and my taste is developing in a different direction, I gave this fragrance to my younger brother, who likes it a lot and receives numerous compliments with it. So I would recommend this fragrance mainly to people between 14-20, for me a very good teen and club fragrance, just like Eros, only I like this one a lot more than Eros, we don't even need to talk about Invictus and One Million here, I won't understand how anyone can even consider these fragrances nowadays. The quality is good for the price, the bottle is safe in the hand and the atomizer is better than in some much more expensive fragrances äähm Tom Ford äähm, sure, the lid is made of plastic, but holds solid dran and who expects full metal and glass here, which must now reach deeper into the pocket :)

Just not mine
Yes, you look at my rating first, then the title of the review, and then scurry back up to the ratings in confusion. To explain, for me Bentley and their perfumes have one big thing in common: just not mine. I understand that many (rather older) people like them, many want them and many like them, yes many, but me rather not. The comparisons don't stop there for me though: opulent, loud and luxurious are both luxury sleigh and perfume, kerb weight of both at over 2 tons. In the case of the perfume, this is due to the thick glass and rather massive lid, which can only be praised, as can the performance: on my skin the first two hours nuclear, room-filling and attention-demanding like few other fragrances in my collection, then it lasts another 7 hours, thankfully with a slightly loosened vibe. Tobacco and Booze are by far the most dominant notes on me, the rest plays along somewhere in the background, leather is barely noticeable on my skin, a huge surprise (and also small disappointment) for me as I've been diligently reading the reviews and fragrance pyramids and mentally preparing myself for a tobacco-booze-leather combo, but well, whatever, everyone's skin is different now. In general I appreciate the creation, heavy, sweet, boozy with ner great H/S, but it still doesn't meet my taste. For me, no reason to give the perfume bad reviews, for me hardly wearable, many friends like it very much, gave it to a very good friend, was and away. Finally, but then the last comparison, the car from the perfume but very different: while you spend for Bentleys x-hundred thousand euros, I got hold of this bulletproof glass flacon for 24 €, for the price I can think of almost nothing that offers this quality and performance, and like ne One-Million-Kopie riechts fortunately not, so if you are on such fragrances: strike.

Tobacco Vanilla Bomb
After a test in the local perfumery about 2 years ago never let out of my head, then on my 20th birthday finally bought: in my eyes for the money the best autumn and winter fragrance. Sweet, spicy ( though not as much as you'd imagine from the name "Spicebomb Extreme") and just delicious. The first time I wore it, on the first chilly day of September, I was directly approached by a friend who said I smelled like apple strudel. And I've gotten this comment several times now, so that seems to be at least partially true, because I personally smell mostly tobacco and a healthy dose of vanilla, the association with the dessert hardly comes up for me. So for others an apple strudel, for me sweet tobacco with vanilla and spices. In any case Christmassy, is also often mentioned, just like the bombastic durability, on my skin Ü10 hours are no problem, the charisma is also very good with 3-3.5 hours and also quite far, you are perceived whether you want or not :). From the fourth hour's with me is gradually more and more a skin-scent, but honestly for me personally also the most beautiful part, for the evening to sit at the table and smell now and then on the sprayed hand ( yes, otherwise I'm actually quite normal) is really a treat for the sense of smell. Thinking of buying a second one despite my 90ml grenade, should this fragrance ever be discontinued. Clear buy recommendation!
