Description

Most people know the Sauvage EDT, maybe a little too well. The Parfum is the same idea, grown up. It opens with mandarin and bergamot, and a peppery, resin-like elemi note stops it from feeling like plain citrus. Then sandalwood takes over, creamy and soft, and it stays soft. There’s none of that metallic bite some people complain about with the EDT. The base is olibanum, tonka and vanilla, warm and close to the skin rather than filling the room. François Demachy did this one in 2019. It suits the man who likes Sauvage but wants something he can wear to a wedding or a proper dinner without smelling like everyone else in the room. Among Dior perfumes for men, this is the version we’d reach for first.

Tips for Best Experience

Put it on right after a shower while your skin is still warm. The sandalwood opens up nicely that way.
