Grey Vetiver Parfum לעומת Sauvage Elixir

The community is divided on Grey Vetiver Parfum, with many loving the original EDP but viewing the Parfum as an unnecessary, expensive flanker that doesn't justify its higher price point. While some appreciate the improved performance and concentration, most agree it's only worth considering as a backup if you already own and love the EDP version.

Sauvage Elixir is a polarizing fragrance with confirmed multiple reformulations that have weakened its legendary performance, especially in 2024-2025 batches. While original formulations were exceptionally strong and long-lasting with a spicy-woody character, recent versions have significantly reduced projection and altered the scent profile, disappointing long-time fans. The fragrance remains powerful enough to be overwhelming for many users, making it best suited for mature wearers and cold weather wear in minimal quantities.
