Simply Awesome
I bought the Sauvage EdP some time ago because I just found the scent amazing - without having caught on to the hype.
Before that, I had the YSL Y, which also falls into the category of "blue" fragrances, but I had somehow grown tired of it since it was my only fragrance at the time.
Both are "blue" fragrances - yes - but Sauvage somehow had even more for me.
I don't know what it was that convinced me of the scent - maybe the Ambroxan, which is a note that one rarely encounters, especially as a beginner in the world of perfumes. And in general, the sweet-freshness combined with the woody and spicy notes creates a very pleasing and attractive DNA. Even 5 years after its release, you still get compliments.
Sure, almost everyone has it on their shelf, and sure, you can't say you smell "really special" with it.
But in my opinion, that doesn't always have to be the case.
Sometimes you can just dive headfirst into the mainstream and let yourself be carried away.
Just wear what you like today and accept that the niche heads are laughing at you from way up high.
Stand tall with pride and be able to admit that you also like a synthetic-smelling fragrance.
98% of people only care about one thing - do you smell:
good?
or
bad?
And with Sauvage, the answer is usually "good!"
Long story short: A fragrance that now has to fight against its own hype; maybe it will become "cool" again when fewer people wear it - I don't care.

Very good, I've liked Dior Sauvage for years too, and I don't care if a fragrance is mainstream or not. I also own One Million and Le Male, for example, which were also overused in the past. With a collection like mine, where I have quite a few, I wear a different scent every day anyway. So for me, a Sauvage has to be in the collection; I even have all the flankers. I should mention, though, that I only have the old batches of the EDT and EDP; I don't like the new ones as much since they were reformulated.

I think it's great when you don't care what others wear. If you like it, then wear it with pride! Keep it up!
