Hey guys! Today, I want to talk about Sauvage Elixir from Dior, the newest addition to the Sauvage series. You might think it’s just another flanker, but let me tell you – this one’s a whole different beast. It shares the name, but that’s about it. In fact, this fragrance takes us back in time. But how? Let’s find out.
Quick Facts:
- Scent Profile: floral
- Season: all-seasons
- Longevity: long-lasting
- Occasion: office, leisure time
- Price: $$$
Smell:
Dior says that Sauvage Elixir is a highly concentrated perfume – think Extrait de Parfum. It’s dense, but still light enough to rock all year round. Now, the scent itself is a bit of a throwback because it’s got a strong lavender note. Yup, that’s right, lavender – the stuff that used to be all the rage a few decades back. It’s giving me some serious grandpa vibes, but in the best way possible.
This modernized version of a retro scent isn’t your typical grandpa fragrance, though. Alongside that lavender, you’ll catch whiffs of grapefruit, wood, and some intriguing spices. It’s perfect for the office or a casual day out, but maybe not your go-to for a hot date.
Longevity:
The best part about Sauvage Elixir? It lasts. I’m talking 10+ hours of longevity. This highly concentrated perfume projects like a champ, so you can bet people will notice you. There’s nothing worse than a weak fragrance, and thankfully, Sauvage Elixir doesn’t disappoint in this department.

Final Thoughts:
Sauvage Elixir is a fascinating retro trip with a modern twist. Think Peaky Blinders. It brings back the once-popular lavender note and combines it with a well-blended mix of other scents. The result is a unique and interesting fragrance with impressive longevity. But here’s the thing – this isn’t your everyday scent. It’s pretty different from what’s out there, so don’t blind buy it. Do yourself a favor and sample it at your local perfume store first. If it’s up your alley, great! If not, at least you tried something new.
In a nutshell, Sauvage Elixir is a good scent that sets itself apart from the Sauvage EdT you might be used to. Whether you love it or not will really depend on your personal taste. So, give it a try and see if it’s the retro-modern fragrance you’ve been looking for.
