Strong contender

FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Strong contender. That is where Ciel Elixir Inspired lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Sauvage Elixir.

Montagne Parfums sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Sauvage Elixir's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $40 it costs 80% less than Sauvage Elixir.

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 Montagne Parfums 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

What it is chasing: grapefruit, cinnamon and nutmeg up top, lavender and liquorice in the middle, sandalwood, amber and patchouli underneath — the shape of Dior Sauvage Elixir.

Top

  • grapefruit
  • cinnamon
  • nutmeg

Heart

  • lavender
  • liquorice

Base

  • sandalwood
  • amber
  • patchouli
Cinnamon and liquorice over dense woods, the loud, addictive evening Sauvage.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
