The review
Zenith Blue scores 6.4 out of 10 on paper — worth a try territory for anyone chasing Sauvage.
French Avenue sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Sauvage's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $45 per 100ml it costs 77% less than Sauvage — the 22nd cheapest of 36 twins we can price.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength French Avenue publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
Dior Sauvage is bergamot and pepper at first, Sichuan Pepper, lavender and star anise at its heart and Ambroxan, vanilla and cedar at the end. French Avenue set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- bergamot
- pepper
Heart
- Sichuan Pepper
- lavender
- star anise
Base
- Ambroxan
- vanilla
- cedar
For the untamed everyday. Bergamot and pepper crack over ambroxan and vanilla — raw, radiant and impossible to ignore.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
