I have a decent sized collection and Carbon has gotten me the most unsolicited compliments. Quite versatile and an all around great fragrance. Awesome video as always!
@@DA-db9bi we like both quite a bit (edt version of Sauvage). We’ve probably been wearing Carbon a little bit more lately though. You can’t go wrong with either.
@@ComicmanImaginator I don’t think it is necessary to own both. We have both and they are used for similar situations. If you are collecting and want a slight variation you can totally rock both though.
Carbon is like the older brother to Sauvage. It's a bit more mature in a sense that is smells like a better mixed, smoother version of Sauvage. A powdery, fresh ambroxan smell that is perfect for all occasions and weather.
I really like Carbon, but sauvage just holds so many good memories for me. Wore it to my first job interview, my sisters wedding, and my first rave LOL. Seriously though it's an amazing rave fragrance- probably one of the best one and done fragrances for college students
Well you're right about that about the college fragrance. I work at a college campus and three guys in the first week were all wearing sauvage, He noticed I was wearing one and I told him when I was wearing chanel allure Homme Sport and He never heard of it he was like it's all about sauvage nothing else, I'm 31 and single and I'm building a collection right now where I am buying stuff outside of sauvage, All definitely be getting carbon
@@jsmith7888 well my first week use Prada Carbon it’s not good performance. After 1 week I feel it better performance. Maybe because I used to strong fragrance
I just bought 150ml of carbon because I love it way more than sauvage, sauvage is great when you want to make a loud presence but carbon is more classy, clean and refined. I use both for different occasions, choose your weapons wisely...
I appreciate both but ultimately would pick Carbon its more pleasant and unique, Sauvage has that baby powder tone going on that Im not crazy about, its subtle but its there or at least it comes out more.
Prada Luna Rosa Carbon gets my vote! I've been really enjoying it this year. To be it's like a more sophisticated Sauvage flanker with added lavender 👌🏻
Perfect description... Carbon is like Sauvage with a floral touch. Carbon is something I can wear everyday, whereas Sauvage sometimes gives me a headache
I have sauvage edp from 2020 and 2 sprays is enough to last all day. I have about 50-60 ml left, don’t really wanna use it as much 😂. I picked up carbon as an alternative and works well but much more cleaner, soapy and fresher. I love both. Get both if you have the money 👍🏾🔥
Have them both. Love them both. But sauvage to me is still addictive,sexy and never gets old. Carbon to me has a scent that reminds me of when it rains and dirt gets wet outside kind of mineral earthy .
I think of Carbon as a sophisticated version of Sauvage. Or inspired by.. because it's not a copy. At the heart and drydown the lavender comes through noticeably and it makes it smell very clean. But I seen some women react to it saying it's "sexy"! I wonder if it's the pepper or the ambroxan? But I haven't received any compliments when I wore it, I did receive one or two with Sauvage edt. It's still Carbon for me but Sauvage is a good pickup too. Owning both is sort of redundant but I don't mind picking up my partial Sauvage, I would never pay full retail for it though.
Loved this video! I have Sauvage EDT, EDP and Parfum, as well as Prada Carbon, and I think Carbon smells the best! Somehow it smells higher quality than Sauvage... 🙄 But can't go wrong with any of these 👌
@@SoCalScents they are different enough to have all 3 if you can find them at a good price! 😄 I already had 100ml EDT but then got a good deal on EDP and Parfum, so picked up both in 60ml bottles 😁
@@DenkyMusic honestly if you want to save a little money go with Carbon. It’s usually $20-30 less online than Sauvage. If you want something that is a little louder and projects more, go with Sauvage. If you want something that’s a little more polished, go with Carbon.
@@DenkyMusic I get best performance with Sauvage EDP, but I prefer the scent of Prada Carbon. Carbon performs well on my skin too, but it isn't as loud projecting as Sauvage EDP or EDT
Sauvage was the 1st frag i bought during the beginning of my fragrance journey and wasnt the biggest fan. I bought 50 bottles of other famous colognes and 3 months later rocked Sauvage and kept getting lovely whiffs in the car & while running public errands, fell in love with it, although cant wear it daily due to the over-synthetic ingredients that can induce cloyingly headaches if worn too many days in a row. Prada Luna Black is a tonka babypowder that went straight back to the store for a full refund. As D&G The One Intense was superior and made it obsolete.
Sauvage is good but keep in mind 9/10 dudes will be wearing it. I blind bought carbon back in 17’ and is still one of my signature scents and lasts 8+ hrs
@@Kadaf1 ur right. But it still can be true depending on your social circle and where you go. Go to a club or somewhere lots of young people go and you'll definitely smell sauvage. Also the girls know this cologne from smelling it on other men. In the bigger picture ur right tho.
Sauvage got savaged by Carbon in this video! 😉 And yes, you guys were right; I liked sauvage when I smelled it on somebody else at work lol but I’m more interested about the women’s compliments on Carbon Finally, the truth speaks out; Socal Scents is the most reliable channel for fragrance reviews and ratings in America 🙌🏼 ; the women don’t lie.

I have both, but unfortunately Carbon gives me headache... dunno why. Everyone says that Carbon is more "soft" than Sauvage, but to my nose is way stronger.
Hey late to commenting on this but hopefully someone could respond with feedback. I purchased Carbon for myself based on positive feedback about it. I wore it to work and receive plenty of feedback on the fragrances. While most people said it was a good scent, all of them associated the smell with “someone’s father,” “someone’s uncle,” or “church deacon.” My girlfriend even agreed that it makes me seem much older than I am (I’m 25). It’s clear that women my age don’t associate this with younger mans vibe and even a couple of male customers claimed it was older smelling to them as well, customer in there mid-30s. I personally loved the smell but the reactions to these brought attention that I didn’t expect or want. What’s your take on this? Do you or anymore else have similar experience or could it be more of a local-cultural thing?
It could just be a local thing as we’ve found it to be fine. I’ve smelled Luke’s brother wearing it just fine at 16 years old and from early 20’s and up. So maybe it’s just the area. If it doesn’t work for you, so many good fragrances to try. Test out something like Explorer by Montblanc or Y Le Parfum by YSL. Hope that helps
Carbon!!! Even though I cannot smell this on myself after 15min. Really I just keep spraying probably to much and im to much cologne guy. Great Video Jeffrey! Love the personalities on all the girls. Especially the last one dropping stuff and she didn't freak out, good under pressure. Cool hand Luke. Have a great zesty afternoon. 😊. Daniel J Brown.
@@DanielBrown-nj3th When I tested Sauvage the first time, I got nauseous. I still have that bad experience in my head whenever I smell it but I learned to be careful with spraying such juice. Carbon is a bit less in your face so it's less of an issue but yeah I don't think that more than 5-6 sprays or so are needed.
Great video guys 👍💪 Personally i like more the carbon, and it might sound weird but somehow i found their drydowns to be acutally kinda different. Since sauvage was reformulated their performance is pretty similar, which is still great for both but i think prada wins price-wise as well. Anyways both superstar fragrances
First time visiting your channel and have been collecting fragrances for over 40 years. Have to say you guys are up there with Redolessence, Gent Scents, Frag Mental, Max Forte, Imagine Scent, and Demi Rawlings. Keep up the good work.
if you can get Ultra male and Stronger with you. Switch them up for daily use and leave the other for dates/night wear. Also for cold area i reccomend Halloween man X, really good for cold areas
I bought Carbon instead of Sauvage because Sauvage is too popular. It's so damn wearable and gets loads of compliments. I only ever buy 50ml but I kind of wish I'd bought the 100ml for this cause there's already a solid dent in it
@@ComicmanImaginator they are different enough but still very similar. I don’t think it comes off as pure Sauvage as it does have its own unique elements like a note of coal and the use of lavender.
Between these two we’ve been wearing Carbon a bit more lately. Honestly it’s preference as there are many great blue fragrances. Y, Coach for men, bleu de Chanel, Sauvage, Lacoste L’homme intense, Carbon.
last girl has such an amazing energy :O but I like all of your girls in this channel. My best fragrance compliment from woman was when I wore Carbon. She couldn't believe that I smell sooooo goooood
@@hamzaaz7693 we like the EDT best for Sauvage. Lately we have been wearing Carbon more. Average performance but we don’t worry about that as we don’t have issues with reapplying :)
Tried Carbon today, got a little 50ml. I like it but I really don’t get any Sauvage from it. It smells kinda like that old spice in the white bottle. Almost barbershop spicy.
Test them on skin not paper. fragrance smells a lot different on the skin , as body heat changes the composition and the note's shine through properly. There both just cheap chemical crap. axis elegant man and writer by cyrus do the same job for £15 a bottle.
@silent sir Creed use natural ingredients and perhaps amouage so there are houses that perhaps don't use cheap chemicals. I've got clone's that smell just as good as the original's and last longer in some case's ,It makes you wander what the cost of the ingredients are .
Try to make it to a department store and give it a test if you can, try to blind buy whenever possible. We do like it, and find it easy to wear, but blind buying will always be up to you.
@global pulseReally? Ah man, I’m this close 🤏 to pulling the trigger on the Sauvage EDP.. I think I remember smelling Givenchy Gentleman.. That’s the regular one not the ‘GG Only’ right? Is the performance not great on it tho??
I'm sorry but Dior Savage is for the older crowd. I was wearing savage. I was 27, and a girl told me I smelled like her dad.shes 27 too btw. Like it smells good. But it's definitely for a older gentleman. If your under 30 don't wear Savage.
It’s entire market is like 16-35 though 🤷♂️. It brought back a scent memory of her dad. That happens. Same thing happens with oh you smell like my ex, or you smell like my uncle type of things too.
I don’t focus or stress about longevity on fragrances unless it barely lasts 2-3 hrs or lasts way to long. This is neither. I have gotten threw a workday fine and then can spray on your fragrance for the evening. Always mix skin and clothes for best results 😊
@@SoCalScents currently waiting for it to be delivered lol, but I really enjoy my EDP and I remember liking the EDT in stores a lot so I’m pretty excited. Gotta try that Sauvage x ultra male combo now
Sauvage parfum have all advertisement power and this is only reason why people think Sauvage is something special but in reality this is nothing special..... Carbon very easy is Winer
The lavender note in Carbon just makes the DNA smell more well blended and smooth. Sauvage is a little too metallic and mature smelling. Going based off of smell alone, Carbon all day. That being said, Sauvage doesn't have really any weak points from the projection, performance and even down to the atomizer and magnetic cap.
The best way to test a fragnance is on the skin. If you guys standing with her in a closed place and you have 4 hands why wont you spray on your skin and test it better waY?
Multiple videos are being filmed at a time. Also paper is the most neutral way to test and is also how the perfumers test it. Roja Dove even did a post about it a while back. Skin can be better, it can also be far worse, or it can remain the same. Testing in neutral is the most even playing field
Hahaha word. Maybe that's why every time I use Sauvage I'm always on the fence about it. I want to like it but it just is slightly off to me. That's how I've felt about Jay-Z since he came out. Nas on the other hand has been the man since day one. Your comment helped me to seal the deal. I'm gonna gonna check out Carbon soon.
Am I the only one who thinks they do not smell the same? To me (and actually my gf), they are so different but everyone says they are 90% the same!🤣 Great video! Really enjoyed it!

Savauge EDP is better than both
Which do you guys prefer between Sauvage EDP and Carbon?
Carbon over the edp
Prada 🖤🙌
I love carbon. Would you still recommend if I have Sauvage edt, edp and parfum?
Probably not as it’s very similar vibe. I would mix it up. Maybe ocean instead :)
I'm sorry but Dior Savage is for the older crowd. I was wearing savage. I was 27, and a girl told me I smelled like her dad.shes 27 too btw. Like it smells good. But it's definitely for a older gentleman. If your under 30 don't wear Savage.
It’s entire market is like 16-35 though 🤷♂️. It brought back a scent memory of her dad. That happens. Same thing happens with oh you smell like my ex, or you smell like my uncle type of things too.
@@SoCalScents ehh, True in a way. Still wouldn't recommend it for the younger crowd.
What About Longevity of Prada luna rosa carbon
I don’t focus or stress about longevity on fragrances unless it barely lasts 2-3 hrs or lasts way to long. This is neither. I have gotten threw a workday fine and then can spray on your fragrance for the evening. Always mix skin and clothes for best results 😊
Now do mont blanc explorer vs sauvage
Explorer is king for Sauvage.... put explorer and 24 hours u smell great.... best scent for money what u can buy today
@Papi Pap spray constantly and you get 24 hours :)))
@@trumpameri1638 this is amazing logic😂😂
@@보냥이-q8w hahahaha
Great video!! I have Prada Carbon an love it but I still haven't smelled Sauvage
Carbon is great. Sauvage is worth trying in the future
Sauvage last all day,and even after.
I’ve got both and I use them interchangebly
Do you know which one is more lavender like ? I really like the smell of lavender so I was wondering which one smells the closest to a lavender.
I have them both Sauvage can be a little annoying ..I prefer the prada .I don't think they smell similar.
Is carbon a summer type of cologne?
i have Carbon...and a backup bottle at all times
I have sauvage, do you think it’d be redundant to have carbon as well?
No!!!! They are not interchange, carbon is more classy and clean, but sometimes you need the sauvage loud and arrogant....
They are very similar. If you want to wear more uses out of Sauvage wait until you find a killer deal on Carbon
EXCELLENT episode
Thank you!
I have Carbon. Have someone else problems with longetivity? cant smell it on me after 15 min
You might be going nose blind to it. That happens to me with wanted by night. It’s there cause other people can smell it, but I can’t
Thanks for the response and keep up the work!
Sauvage to me is overrated junk. Carbon. I get compliments....wear it anytime anywhere I'm good
Carbon is great
Do you get a lot of compliments from women with carbon?
@@Anthonydp oh yeah I started with 4 sprays and that was to much people said wow thats strong. Then went with 3. Get quite a few now
Rewatching this vid now that I have The EDT sauvage as well 🤣
How are you enjoying it
@@SoCalScents currently waiting for it to be delivered lol, but I really enjoy my EDP and I remember liking the EDT in stores a lot so I’m pretty excited. Gotta try that Sauvage x ultra male combo now
@@cole4249 the combo is 🔥
Why do the girls look nothing like they do in the thumbnail? They look like mothers in their 30's.
Time some glasses my friend
Carbon is the better hands down
prada carbon 5/6sprays =sauvage edt 2 sprays
I like sauvage for longevity and projection.
Sauvage parfum have all advertisement power and this is only reason why people think Sauvage is something special but in reality this is nothing special..... Carbon very easy is Winer
nah bro women love sauvage lol it smells so much better on skin to others than it does to the person wearing it
The last video scene was so superflous. She hyped Prada Carbon but no opinion on Dior Sauvage?
It’s from a different previous video as a bonus reaction, I didn’t have a bonus reaction of her smelling Sauvage.
How about comparing Carbon with Sauvage EDP for a real neck-and-neck.
The lavender note in Carbon just makes the DNA smell more well blended and smooth. Sauvage is a little too metallic and mature smelling. Going based off of smell alone, Carbon all day. That being said, Sauvage doesn't have really any weak points from the projection, performance and even down to the atomizer and magnetic cap.
Literally went into macys yesterday and smelled carbon because hearing the similarities with sauvage.
So similar with nuanced differences
The best way to test a fragnance is on the skin.
If you guys standing with her in a closed place and you have 4 hands why wont you spray on your skin and test it better waY?
Multiple videos are being filmed at a time. Also paper is the most neutral way to test and is also how the perfumers test it. Roja Dove even did a post about it a while back. Skin can be better, it can also be far worse, or it can remain the same. Testing in neutral is the most even playing field
@@SoCalScents thanks for the information, when a women react for YSL Y EDP Intense will come out ?
@@TheEliyacohen hopefully soon! I’ve been out of town the last few weeks. So new vid with the ladies either this week or next!
i prefer carbon it’s more refined and classy compared to sauvage
I find carbon is closer to sauvage edp than the edt
Dior sauvage is like jay z and prada carbon is like nas 🤷🏻♂️
So carbon it is for me lol
Hahaha word. Maybe that's why every time I use Sauvage I'm always on the fence about it. I want to like it but it just is slightly off to me. That's how I've felt about Jay-Z since he came out. Nas on the other hand has been the man since day one. Your comment helped me to seal the deal. I'm gonna gonna check out Carbon soon.
I know I’m late to the party , but how about not telling them which is which ?
No French scent can beat an Italian scent and thats a fact
Scent is subjective no matter where it’s from. Everyone likes different smells 😊
Awesome exactly what I wanted
Prada is just as strong
For me Prada>sauvage>coach
Coach for men is nothing like these thou.
Am I the only one who thinks they do not smell the same? To me (and actually my gf), they are so different but everyone says they are 90% the same!🤣
Great video! Really enjoyed it!
Thanks Chris! We think there are just small differences between them. But we can definitely tell them apart :)
@@SoCalScents crazy, me and my gf do not detect any similarities besides that they are fresh. Anyway, keep up the good work. Love your videos
FONDO DEL GANADOR PRIMER 🎉PRADA CARBON 🎉👌fragrance
Carbon is John Lennon. Sauvage is Paul Mcartney.
Now we got to find out what Ringo is 😂🙌
This makes no sense. Why would you tell her which one your giving her. Let her smell them and then tell her after she makes her pick.
