Farouche

My experience with ALT in general has been pretty garbage. Just do research and find something better. The scent smells good, I guess. I've gotten a couple of compliments, and my roommate, who owns Sauvage, noted that it smells similar without me telling him that was the point. Bonus points there, I guess. But the atomizer and bottle (and this applies to all ALT bottles) SUCK. Seriously makes me not want to wear it because it's so inconsistent and leaky and ugly and boring. Just buy something else. However, the longevity is insane. I've put this on on a Friday, spent a weekend swimming, boating, and hanging out, and I could still smell it on me on SUNDAY. The longevity is insane, but it becomes a weak point because I get so bored and disappointed with the smell, I can't wait to put something else on or for it to just wear off.

Call me crazy.. but side to side.. I prefer this to Sauvage. Theres something about this thats just more bright and substantial than Sauvage. Yes. Is definitely is a clone. But it could be all in my head, this one performs better, smells better and is obviously a 10th of the price. So, if you aren't worried about looking cool wearing the name brand.. go for this.

A very typical clone of Sauvage. More or as powerful (although, my batch is from 2019). Good stuff, cheap.

Let's be honest: Dior Sauvage is the "cologne" everyone loves to hate. It's pervasive, it's everywhere, and fragrance enthusiasts often scoff at its ubiquity. Yet, deep down, most people love how it smells. There's a reason it's a best-seller: that fresh, peppery, ambroxan-rich blend is undeniably captivating and universally appealing. Enter this clone fragrance, which doesn't just ride on Sauvage's coattails; it practically is Sauvage, but at a screaming value. From the very first spray, the resemblance is uncanny. That signature bright, almost sparkling bergamot and sharp Sichuan pepper opening is perfectly captured, instantly recognizable as the DNA of the modern masculine powerhouse. And the magic doesn't stop there. As it dries down, the creamy, marine-like ambroxan emerges, mirroring the original's seamless transition into that smooth, comforting, yet still vibrant base. Seriously, close your eyes, and you'd be hard-pressed to tell the difference. But here's where this clone truly pulls ahead: longevity. While Sauvage itself isn't a slouch, this dupe goes the extra mile, clinging to skin and fabric for an incredible duration, often outperforming the original by a significant margin. You're talking about a scent that will easily last through a full workday and into the evening, requiring no touch-ups. Now, for the critical (but ultimately minor) note: the bottle is unapologetically hideous. It looks like something you'd find gathering dust on the bottom shelf of a discount store, with a design that's as bland as it is forgettable. However, this aesthetic misstep comes with a surprising and significant advantage: it features a screw-in atomizer. This might seem like a small detail, but it's a game-changer. It means you can easily decant this fantastic juice into a more aesthetically pleasing travel atomizer or a luxury bottle you already own. Even better, for those days when you've worn the original Sauvage in the morning but need a midday refresh, this clone is your perfect, affordable top-up, seamlessly blending without missing a beat.

Used to own old batch from like 2021 or maybe 2022, and it definitely smelled MUCH MUCH closer to sauvage, as it is trying to dupe, than my newest bottle from last christmas (2025) Newer batch doesn't smell like it's trying to dupe anymore, but rather it's relatively in a similar dna zone now.. still a decent, cheap, long-lasting scent in its own right. Solid all year daily driver scent. Gotten a handful of compliments periodically.

Smelt sauvage irl and this smells nothing close. This smells like a interesting grandpa scent. Irritates my skin. Save your money. 4/10 grandpa scent.

Gave me a headache. It smells like cheap shampoo, I sold it after a couple of days, don't buy it.
