Luna Rossa Black לעומת Sauvage Elixir

The community has a positive view of Luna Rossa Black, praising its unique powdery scent and good longevity, though opinions vary on projection. The main criticism is its weak sillage and skin-scent nature, which makes it unsuitable for those wanting a "beast mode" fragrance. Discontinuation rumors persist despite evidence the fragrance remains widely available.

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.
