FragDNA score · on paper

The review

Sensible Elixir scores 6.8 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Sauvage Elixir.

Perfume Parlour 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.

It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.

At $122 per 100ml it costs 63% less than Sauvage Elixir — the 21st cheapest of 21 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 Perfume Parlour 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 Elixir is grapefruit, cinnamon and nutmeg at first, lavender and liquorice at its heart and sandalwood, amber and patchouli at the end. Perfume Parlour set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

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.
