Perfume Creation Director of Dior, Francis Kurkdjian, is responsible for many great scents. Recently, he released a re-do of Miss Dior and last year took on the tall task of recomposing the 25-year icon, J’adore. Now, he turns his hand—or nose—to Sauvage, Dior’s iconic scent for men.
In keeping with its pioneering temperament—Sauvage launched in 2015—Kurkdjian’s Sauvage Eau Forte is the very first high-concentration men’s composition in a water-based formula that is free of alcohol. Inspired by the power and roar of moving water, the new scent is spicy, woody and musky. An aroma that is as fresh as an eau de toilette, and yet as intense as a parfum, it is one that would suit most men in your life, be it your partner, your brother, your father or your friend.
“The cascade of a waterfall is a powerful, breathtaking, and mesmerising spectacle,” says Kurkdjian. “I was keen on the idea of water acting as a link and a crossing point between heaven and earth, in a fragrance embodying this incredible power.
“To convey [this], I reinvented the signature freshness by moving away from traditional citrus notes to accentuate a flight of fresh and aromatic spices,” he continues. “Sauvage Eau Forte explores the sensation of a contrast between a wet-effect and woody amber sensuality.”
As women, we know how good Kurkdjian is—Baccarat Rouge 540, anyone?—so trust us when we say this Sauvage iteration is a masterfully crafted. With Father’s Day just around the corner, and in a stunning navy bottle that looks stylish on any vanity cabinet, this new spicy fresh offering for men makes a good gift.
