Meh.
On me, the generic supermarket shaving cream I used to use for shaving my legs in my early teens before I started waxing (I am a woman). Not something I want to smell of 🙂

Very, very similar to Sauvage Edt Dior.

Ok guys,
Another ‘potion’:
Layer this + Zara Home Cuir Velvet and you’ll get 99.9% Sauvage in the drydown, 90% in top notes.
The best part is, Cuir Velvet is amazing on its own as a more conservative ‘blue’ fragrance since its Sauvage – the ambroxan. I’d even say it’s a blue-grey fragrance, as I feel it earthy. I’d even say it’s up there with Declaration line, definitely up there with the Prada Luna Rossa, classier than Dylan Blue. I personally like it way more than Bleu, but that’s just personal taste, as Mr. Polge created a masterpiece.
Now Aroamatic Future is definitely a ‘tamed’ Sauvage that you can use as a daily no-frills scent. You won’t turn many heads but are definitely still smelling awesome… and remember, it’s just $15 – absolute no-brainer.
My Rating of AF 7/10
My Rating of CV 8.5/10
My Rating of the ‘potion’ 9.5/10
_________________________________________
P.D. Listen, 3 different fragrances for half of what Sauvage costs AND as we’re talking 200 ml, it’s 1/4 of Sauvage’s price. What you’ll have is:
Sauvage (the ´potion´)
A daily use Sauvage-like frage for you no-frills day (Aromatic Future)
A more formal, more unique grey-blue scent for special occasions (Cuir Velvet)

This is a very very very pleasing, unoffensive version of Sauvage. Is a Sauvage version for one who does not want to be a protagonist, yet smell fantastic. I own both and use them for different occasions.

This is Sauvage like frag but not quite. I get the light sauvage opening with just the right amount of sweet. To me this is clean fresh and sterile. Very sterile frag but in a good way. Imagine wearing sauvage and browsing home department store, looking for a new woody kitchen or a bedroom. Totally this store feeling. If gray color had a smell, this would definitely be it. Not bad at all if you are into those kind of frags. There are better offerings that smell like sauvage. If you are opening a store and want the smell for it, get this and spray it around. Ppl will love it.

A very decent offering from Zara.
This line from Zara home is really a new level of quality, lately they’ve provided many perfumes that resemble iconic perfumes like Aventus and so on, yet their quality wasn’t up to the standard and by far below normal designer scents.
This line takes Zara to a whole new level, I wouldn’t say it’s niche of course, but having a name of a famous designer behind the bottle adds a lot in popularity and price point.
Cuir Velvet is clearly a Dior Suavage clone but with a very decent quality and it’s not very cheap actually to start with, but the bottle is pretty, the scent is lovable and with a fairly good quality, the longevity is excellent as well as the projection.
I tried today the line from “The Body Shop” and honestly this line from Zara is by more modern and upbeat, the prices were the same but considering that the body shop bottles were 50ml only, hat Zara has 100 ml bottles.
If you have Sauvage then this would be redundant, but if not then it’s worth considering as an alternative.

Well, it happens that Dior Sauvage, Mr. Burberry, Versace Dylan Blue… already exist. This is pretty close to all of them and you already know what this means.
Manly, trendy, crowdpleasant and not bad at all!
