“This is another banger from Lattafa. It's a clean, sweet, fresh, take on Sauvage Elixir. In the air it's a little more powder fresh than Dior. And it's a bit sweeter on skin. The average person would never know the difference though. In a way I like it more than the original, it's more versatile and crowd pleasing. The sweet fresh opening is invigorating after a nice hot shower. It's not so damn assertive like the Dior. It's also about 1/8th the price of the original. The scent is natural, sweet, fresh, Sauvage Elixir, nothing more, nothing less. Longevity is good, projection for 2 hours, scent bubble for 4-6 hours, skin scent until you wash it off.”
“Having both the SE and Asad I can say that these are so close that I couldn't with a straight face encourage anyone to spend the money on Dior's SE. In fact I prefer Asad to SE because it comes off a little softer to my nose. SE is great but it has a very bright opening for myself and it can sometimes lend to olfactory fatigue and minor headache when I wear it (same with Sauvage EDP, which is my favorite of the flankers). Asad tends to hit the same key notes for me, just not as bright at the opening. Maybe it comes off with a little more vanilla in the opening which might tone down the brightness. Which is a good thing for me as it doesn't give me the head ache.Longevity for me is 11-12 hours on skin and days on clothes if you don't wash them. SE gives me about 14 hours on skin but to me 11-12 hours is more than enough on skin to get through the day. If you want it to hold longer just hit your shirt with a single spray and you're good for 24+ hours. lolMy only advice would be same for SE. A little goes a long way and this is a beast mode fragrance so you can drown out a room if you're too liberal with the application. 1-4 sprays (depending on needs) and your set for the entire day.”
“I personally didn’t like it. It is a very strong scent. I read the reviews before buying and a lot of people wrote that it smells so good, but honestly it gave me a headache and the people around me too, when I sprayed one spray! Unfortunately it is not returnable so there goes my $25 😫😞😱”
