The review
Sauvage Elixir scores 7.0 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Sauvage Elixir.
The Essence Vault 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 $32 per 100ml it costs 90% less than Sauvage Elixir — the 4th 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 The Essence Vault 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. The Essence Vault set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- grapefruit
- cinnamon
- nutmeg
Heart

Cinnamon and liquorice over dense woods, the loud, addictive evening Sauvage.
