What Wearers Say
Dior Sauvage Eau de Toilette
One longtime EDT wearer loves its spices and ambroxan drydown, and wears it year-round.
Another wearer enjoys its peppery character in the air.
The second wearer finds it too sharp up close.
Another wearer likes the fragrance but finds it too familiar to buy a bottle.
Dior Sauvage
A wearer enjoys the later vanilla warmth while still finding the scent fresh.
The same wearer finds the opening and overall strength too forceful at times; another fan finds it too heavy for daytime use.
The Verdict
We'd pick the EDP. The EDT is bergamot and ambroxan: bright, mineral and loud. The EDP keeps the bergamot and ambroxan and adds Sichuan pepper, which is tingly and almost citrusy, lavender, star anise's soft licorice and a vanilla base. That makes it rounder and warmer, and easier to like up close. Choose the EDT if you want Sauvage at its sharpest.
