ust when you think that there’s no direction left for the Sauvage line to evolve, Dior releases the Sauvage Elixir, the fourth flanker of the tremendously popular Dior Sauvage line.

Dior Sauvage Elixir came out in 2021 as a story for itself – different from other flankers, yet still with that famous Sauvage DNA that won the hearts of many.

The nose behind this fragrance is the master perfumer Francois Demachy who was the Dior’s in-house perfume since 2006. Before leaving Dior, his last creation for men was Dior Sauvage Elixir.

In this post, we will thoroughly examine all of the facets of the Dior Sauvage Elixir, including its scent, longevity, and appropriate occasions for wearing it, as well as analyze if the Elixir really is worth the investment (and why it got a deserved place on our list of best winter fragrances for men in 2022!).

What Does Dior Sauvage Elixir Smell Like?
Dior Sauvage smells extremely luxurious, masculine, and animalistic. The main note of lavender is dominant, but fresh and warm spices combined around it make Elixir incredibly unique and powerful.

Dior Sauvage Elixir is a scent that aims to inspire a feeling of wildness and freedom – similar inspiration to when Dior Sauvage (EDT) came out with a Johnny Depp commercial, but truth to be told, Elixir lives up to the idea!

Top notes:

Grapefruit
Nutmeg
Cardamom
Cinnamon
Heart notes:

Lavender
Base notes:

Licorice
Woods (sandalwood)
Vetiver / oakmoss
Amber
Patchouli
The smell is an energizing and intensely sensual combination of aromatic but also woody ingredients that is both invigorating and deeply sensual.

Light citrusy opening with grapefruit combined with nutmeg as the leading note and cardamom as a fresh spice is an incredible combination that literally leaves you breathless on first smell.

The opening is smooth and sharp at the same time and it simply starts claiming the space around you.

The heart of lavender starts kicking in after 15-20 minutes and that’s when Elixir evolves into something, I’d dare to say, very unique and powerful.

The base contains woods to support smoothness, amber to exaggerate animalistic notes, and patchouli to give the entire composition earthy touch.

The entire scent is ISO e Super and ambroxan heavy which allows Sauvage Elixir to project for hours and very far in distance. Also, ambroxan (aroma chemical of ambergris) gives it a wild and animalistic note, but also leaves a very strong scent trail behind you.

Altogether, Sauvage Elixir (in my opinion) definitely has Sauvage DNA but you can only feel it a bit later – if you combine Sauvage DNA and add smoothness to it but you also go beast mode with spices, that would be what Sauvage Elixir is made of.
