What wearers say
“A brighter and lighter version of Sauvage. I like it and the price is a third of Sauvage. Of course it doesn’t last as long but still a good buy. It also reminds me a little bit of Kenzo Sport and Sport extreme, the drydown.”
“I do love this scent, not sure I get the hate. It does have a bit of a overly sweet citrus, lavender, shower gel thing going on. There is some spice hidden in there. But it does dry down to an nice ambery note. Decent fresh spring or summer scent. And dirt cheap now that it has been discontinued.”
“I don't agree with the Sauvage comparison. I do however enjoy the scent even though it's not going to blow any minds. It's basically a blue freshie with a slight lack of personality but certainly a safe, serviceable and enjoyable daily driver for work or a weekend.”
