Extreme Story

Soapy Sauvage. Very similar in the air, lasts decent. Can smell it close to skin for hours but at this price, spray away and dont think about it. It smells really close to Sauvage. Fresh and soapy clean. Wont replace Sauvage but will definitely be a fast grab when I want put something on and walk out to a store or a coffee so they will smell it on me for that hour. I carry it in my back pack for a quick sptay when I need it. I sure as hell wouldnt carry a bottle of Sauvage or Aventus in my backpack just like that, that I throw around. I have Brave Man which is Invictus and Password which is Armani Code. Both are so so close to OGs but last poorly. Again, for that price... I got a few bottles of each and was complimented for wearing Invictus, Code and Sauvage. People like what they smell and what they smell is similar to those frags. Hey why not save OGs and sometimes put La Rive dupes. They smell close, very nice and its not like they are gone in half an hour. Beats wearing any deodorant.

With a price tag of $9-$12 for 3.4 oz. it’s incredible. Yes, it smells a lot like Sauvage and lasts a good 5 hours. Nice Sauvage-ish bottle and is a great alternative for when you want to smell like Dior, but you’re not going somewhere particularly fancy and don’t want to waste the good stuff.

Smells great for the pricepoint. Smells like a fresh good weather versatile fragrance. Ofcourse you cant compare this to a 100 euro fragrance but for 10 its great. Got alot of compliments with this on hot days.

Smells clean and fresh, not overly citrus, has a sun dried clean clothes character which I find soft and pleasing. Very worth for the price point. Atomizer is great.

Sillage = 5/10 Projection = 6/10 Longevity = 6/10 Dupe of Sauvage. It remains like that before it disappears 2-3 hours later. Good fragrance with good price

Extreme Story, this right here is the Dior Sauvage clone of La Rive. Not Just on Time, that's Pure XS. Not Black Soul, that's Hugo Soul. No Extreme Story is. Actually, Extreme Story is a bit more of Sauvage's Very Cool Spray open minus the grapefruit with a slight Jimmy Choo Man Blue base due to a slight leather note. It has a brighter open than most Sauvage clones. which go for the darker ambrox fragrances. Due to the pepper note being replaced by cardamom and amber which replaces ambroxan/amber wood sticking to the base, it shouldn't give you a headache. Sauvage like a fewer other pepper heavy fragrances are prone to give headaches. That is a major plus in Extreme Story, compared to most Sauvage clones. The notes I mostly get is the bergamot, the lavender, the cardamom, the amber and the vetiver. The elemi, geranium and leather notes are there, but they aren't strong. I can hardly detect mountain air or rose in the fragrance. Extreme Story's weakness if there is any is La Rive performance. I get 3/4 hours. Belcam Primitive Man can at least give me 5/6 for the same price range. Overall Extreme Story is only a like to me at a 7. Now a 7 isn't bad since I rated Playboy New York at 7.3 but love it. However, Extreme Story's strength is doing what Dior Very Cool Spray does but in a proper EDT. That said, performance is the problem here, like most La Rives.

Tried this in a local DM store and actually it's not that bad, especially for the price. Very masculine and spicy. At first I didn't like it, but after about 2-3 minutes it was really nice. Bad performance of course, but what did you expect? :P Age group: 20+ I'd say and season: spring & fall I didn't smell Dior Sauvage yet, but I will compare them and update this review. Sprayed this on my left hand and on my right hand I put Cuba Gold, to my nose they have a similar vibe. Edit: Not very similar to Sauvage, but still a great scent.

One of those cheap, spray on every day 'freshen up while avoiding the good stuff' type of products. Its nice as a daytime fragrance for lounging around at home. On its own, it is reminiscent of Sauvage, then compare it side by side and there is no comparison. Funny how the mind can play tricks on you like that without a point of reference. Its pretty stong too, I get wafts of it for 3-4hrs before it starts to wear off. All in all, worth a try for less than £10 for a 100ml

Great Dior Sauvage alternative for a fraction of the price. Payed 14$ for a set with a deodorant spray. Smells exactly like Sauvage BUT, without all the metallic sharpness and the depth of smells that Sauvage offer. If you don't like the strong metallic smells from the original Sauvage, like I did, you might like this. Performance max 5 hours on my skin with moderate towards weak projection. Not bad at all

Oli G is absolutely right. This is Dior sauvage with hint of soapy clean. It kinda reminds me of Mont blanc Individuel. Compare to Emper Toolbox, i actually prefer this one. Its calmer and more relaxing not really in your face. Alcohol bomb in the beginning but thats ok since its very cheap, good balsamic root beer type that smells warm and addictive, and lavender. Good job, La Rive

Right. OK. Im so glad we all now know a €7 fragrance is not as good as a €70 one. I'll remeber that when I spray my curtains with it, because it smells perfectly nice for that purpose. For using down the gym, or even for walking the dog. Occasions when Sauvage is just overkill

For 10 bucks you cant get a better summer fragrance than this, I get a lot of compliments on summer days but on skin it flies whiten 2 hours on shirts it lasts around 5-6 hours. The smell is fresh and fruity

Um bom perfume para o preço, em minha pele fica um cheiro meio esfumaçado me lembra incensos, bom perfume pra dar de presente. Tem que repassar varias vezes durante o dia mas o cheiro é bom sim

Good alternative if you want Sauvage Dior but can’t afford. Nice fragrance if you don’t need something extra like to go to shop or a stroll in park

I've gotten some compliments with this but it is very synthetic and not that good quality.

This is what I get from Extreme Story: Imagine Sauvage, remove all of the ambroxan and metallic notes (which are what give Sauvage its mysterious, dynamic and attractive energy). Extreme Story takes the floral "clean/ soapy" DNA component of Sauvage (not a perfect copy, but similar) and presents it without any ambroxan or metal notes. Extreme Story also has a stronger pepper note than the real Sauvage. It also lacks in performance as expected. Depending on what you want, it may satisfy your needs or it may not. For someone who isn't 100% dedicated to fragrance, but just wants to smell pleasant, it may be a worthy purchase. Not enough of a copy to wear in stead of Sauvage, but nice enough independently of Sauvage for a non-dedicated user.

I have seen La Rive fragrances here and there but have always dismissed them since most cheap supermarket perfumes smell really bad, but a friend recommended me to try this one. Opening is almost identical to Sauvage. It remains like that before it disappears 2-3 hours later. Sauvage has a more peppery-spicy ambroxan dry down which this one obviously lacks. Sauvage is really not my favourite fragrance and for 7€ one cannot expect too much, but I must say it’s good overall, to use as a quick fresh up , like before going to the gym or running errands.

Obviously a cheap fragrance you buy from supermarkets or cheap cosmetic shops when you are on the road. It tries to replicate Sauvage in a way with the opening but after 30 minutes on skin you will need to smell it directly over the spot you sprayed it on no matter if its a "pulse point" or not. It stays a little bit more on the clothes without staining them so I would say it's a pretty safe fragrance for gym or a quick shop stop if you like to smell fresh at all times, definitely wouldn't use it for anything else.

Este é uma opção "low cost", que dá oportunidade para quem não está querendo gastar muito ou precisa economizar. Um barato para dia a dia inspirado em um exemplar reconhecidíssimo no mercado para usar sem restrição, borrifando continuamente várias vezes. Isto posto, ele é bastante honesto. Versátil, agradável e fresco. Obs.: em meu exemplar o borrifador está horrível. Não comprarei novamente, pois há muitos outros para provar por aí com mesmo valor, mas estou contente com esta minha compra!

Good Sauvage clone or alternative (not the same quality of course Sauvage is a Dior), has the spicyness & metallicness but doesn't have the soapy/shower gel clean accord as Sauvage; Performance is Decent, the syntheticness actually allows it to project enough to be noticed at least the 1st hr or so, and last about 5 hours. Also, Police Deep Blue smells a lot like La Rive Extreme Story, and is another good Sauvage clone or alternative.
