Fruity, rounder, cheaper
My father-in-law often gives me duplicates and cheap copies of larger fragrances. Nice meant - but with such a collection mostly then of course pre-programmed to give away or to dust in the showcase. "Writer" of Cyrus, who gave it this Easter, it won't turn out that way. It is also a copy of an olfactory blockbuster, namely Dior's "Sauvage" - but since I always wanted it in my collection despite a lack of love (especially measured by the hype, the fragrance quality and its price), because it's so easy to wear every day, this time I'm very happy about the inexpensive gift. Because "Writer" can keep up with its model amazingly well and costs only a fraction of it (100 ml - 15€)...
"Writer" can't deny who he's emulating. From the bottle to the colour, from the tangy top note to the musk-clean drydown, it's all based on Dior's new "Wilden". But damn well done! "Writer" is even less pungent, far more fruity, softer and almost looks a bit higher quality. Bad tongues now say that this is not difficult with "Sauvage", but with the PLV you have to do it first. Somewhere between EdT and EdP of his great role model. "Writer" is a beginner's fragrance, always-goer, recreational charmer, office favorite. And an extreme wallet saver. If I already had "Sauvage" in the collection, I would give it away with a clear conscience. But since this is not the case, he will stay and pull in firmly and will certainly not be worn infrequently. A fresher Boss Bottled. Not a bestseller for nothing. Teenage, penetrating, shower gel-like. That sounds daunting, but with this green apple you never actually do anything wrong in the office. With the dampened "Writer" even less than with Diors polarizer and mass ejection.
Flacon: inspired by the original. I like it excellent. The "Writer" could have been placed/written more discreetly (or omitted altogether), but otherwise it's top. Especially for the ridiculous price. With thick glass, beautiful, deep color and even magnetic closure (!). Fine!
Sillage: pleasant, yet attention-grabbing. People like him and compliment him. From Fiti to the boardroom.
Shelf-life: 6-9 hours are also hardly a whine.
Conclusion: "Sauvage" for penny fox? No, more than that. A real, solid, pleasing alternative and for me even the more pleasant fragrance. Sorry Dior, but now I don't need "Sauvage" in the collection anymore!
