Sauvage Eau Forte by Dior is a cool, spiced fougère built for hot weather. Elemi and spices open it with a sharp, slightly bitter edge. Lavender carries the heart, clean and a little green rather than soft. The base stays light: musk and woody notes, giving it a dry finish that never turns heavy. Launched in 2024, men tend to reach for it, drawn to a fresh scent with some spice in it rather than pure citrus. Voters wear it in summer, almost always during the day. Most wearers vote its longevity moderate, and the sillage vote also comes out moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. A 3ml decant gets you through a run of hot days before you decide on more.

The community verdict
Elemi resin and spices start Sauvage Eau Forte with a resinous bite before lavender, musk and woody notes take over. Most find both its staying power and projection moderate. It suits summer days, with spring working too, for someone who prefers spice without heavy projection.

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.
