Exsupero

First and foremost, definitely do not pay full price for this fragrance and purchase the tester bottles instead. Great pressurized atomizer that gives elegant streams of mist. I spray around 5-6 medium-sized sprays and It lasts a solid 8 hours. I remember my first spray when I got it in the mail, and immediately it reminded me of Sauvage EDT, however when I sprayed them both side by side, they didn't smell the same at all! The opening of this fragrance is simply reminiscent of savauge, but not the same whatsoever, and the similarities between the two become fewer and fewer after that. The opening is crisp, peppery, modern, and very green in a vetiver sense. The opening is very pleasant and exciting, It is currently winter, but I would imagine it being a crowd-pleaser on a summer morning at work. The mid is calmer, but elegant, and maintains the modern feel, almost like a young finance guy in California. I didi notice however, that there is a slight playdough esc vibe in the mid that I can't seem to shake. Almost like a lipstick- playdough binder was used to hold all of the other notes in. It is not a bad smell, but is noticeable after wearing it for 2 months. The dry down rolls in with that smooth sandalwood and patchouli and maintains its masculinity, as if that finance guy grew up, bought a house in the suburbs of Northern California near the forest and started a family. This fragrance doesn't smell like every other scent, contrary to what many youtube videos claim. I believe its modern and for $69.00 tester bottle performs very well. overall 8.4/10

This is really good and smooth for a TK (compared to some I've tried in the past). I can smell the grass, green notes, and vetiver off the top. I also get some sweetness from something like vanilla. Very similar to Sauvage EDT, but it has a twist. What it comes down to is shaving foam, some greenness, and grass with a little sweetness and sandalwood. This is a moderate performer, but I don't mind it. At discounters, its cheaper than Sauvage and around the same price as Prada carbon. This is definitely a good everyday wear that has a masculine touch. If you love sauvage but want to try a twist, check this out. Probably the same with Sauvage, but this dries down very linear to the shaving foam-ish smell I spoke about in the opening. Sticks around for a while but gets a little boring in the dry down.

Sauvage hasn’t been my cup of tea lately, so I’ve been on the hunt for a new summer staple. I stumbled upon the decant of a fragrance that’s supposed to be a grown-up version of Sauvage. Intrigued, I gave it a try, and guess what? It’s absolutely amazing! This fragrance is a refreshing and powerful twist on the best parts of Sauvage. I’m definitely not going to buy another bottle of Sauvage once I run out of it, this will be my summer freshie moving forward. Oh, and by the way, this fragrance shares DNA with both Sauvage & Office for Men from Fragrance One.

Nose Note #1029 Wonderful Sauvage dupe with a slight twist. I'd describe the twist as this: take Sauvage EDT and add 5-8% of Cedrat Boisee. Not a beast, but performs just fine. A closer dupe with about the same performance is French Avenue Zenith Blue, but two times cheaper than Exsupero. Why buy Exsupero then? Well, because it's Sauvage with a beautiful twist. OG Sauvage is a bit unfriendly and a bit too "cold". Exsupero makes Sauvage a bit more friendly and it becomes much better than the OG. 8.5/10

Better than any Sauvage more grassy and clean. Just better all around. TK is my favorite house and I have all of them! I need another Star Chaser, #10 & #4 Sport! 🔥
