Eau Sauvage by Dior is a crisp, herbal citrus from 1966 that still feels clean and unfussy. Lemon and bergamot open it with basil, rosemary and a dash of caraway. The heart turns softly floral and aromatic: lavender, jasmine, rose and carnation, with coriander and cool, powdery orris. Underneath, oakmoss, vetiver and musk give it a green, slightly earthy finish. Men tend to wear it, usually those who like to smell freshly showered and well turned out rather than loud. Voters wear it in summer and spring, during the day, and it is a natural pick for the office. Most wearers vote its longevity moderate, and the sillage vote clearly lands on moderate too, so it stays polite. A 10ml decant covers weeks of warm-weather mornings before you buy the bottle.

The community verdict
Fresh and quietly refined, Eau Sauvage starts with bergamot and herbs before settling into oakmoss and vetiver. Most find both its staying power and projection moderate. It fits summer days and works in spring or at the office, especially if you favour a classic, green style.

The house
More from Dior
Dior began in France in 1946 as the fashion house of Christian Dior, and in 1947 it released its first perfume, Miss Dior. The scents today swing between bright and plush: bergamot and citrus on one side, powdery iris and vanilla on the other, with jasmine, rose and patchouli as recurring threads. Hypnotic Poison is the dark, almond-and-vanilla one. J'adore goes the opposite way, a glowing bouquet of white flowers with a fruity lift. Sauvage is fresh and peppery over amber, and Dior Homme Intense turns iris into a soft, woody skin scent.
