(Vetiverich) vs Sauvage Elixir

Vetiverich by Zara has generated genuine interest from the fragrance community despite being nearly impossible to purchase. The scent itself receives positive feedback, but its apparent discontinuation or severe stock issues have left fans frustrated and searching for remaining bottles.

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.
