Dior Sauvage is the world's best-selling men's fragrance — but with four different versions (EDT, EDP, Parfum, and Elixir), choosing the right one can be confusing. Here's a complete breakdown.
The original and most popular version. Fresh, peppery bergamot with Ambroxan. The most versatile — works at the office, on dates, and everywhere in between. This is the one to buy if you're getting your first Sauvage.
Warmer and spicier than the EDT. Adds vanilla and star anise to the mix. Better projection and longevity. Choose this if you want something that lasts through a full work day and into the evening.
The most refined and smooth version. Less sharp than EDT, less sweet than EDP. A sophisticated, "skin scent" quality that smells expensive. Many consider this the best-smelling version of the four.
The nuclear option. Intense, dark, and powerful with cinnamon, nutmeg, and licorice. Two sprays can last all day and night. Not for everyday wear — this is your going-out fragrance for colder months.
First bottle: EDT. It's the most versatile, easiest to wear, and cheapest.
Best value: EDT on discount sites at $82-98.
Best performance: Parfum. Longest-lasting of the wearable versions with the smoothest scent profile.
Best for winter: Elixir. Nothing projects in cold weather like Elixir.
