Found you by accident and now I am hooked. You are criminally underrated, honestly the best fragrance reviewer. Keep up the good work 🥳🥳🥳
I really appreciate that comment. Made my day 🙏
@@ChadSecretsDior sauvage elixir Reformulation? My batch code 2M02
so true, this man is truly underrated, fantastic high quality reviews
That means a lot to me. Thank you!
I do one spray of the dior elixir under my shirt and it doesn’t seem as strong as its reputation is that normal?
Smash that like button. I heard it makes the algorithm smell better 🙏🙏
I sprayed a single spray on my shirt and 3 washes later I still smell a hint of it. Absolutely insane how concentrated it is which is great because it’s so expensive.
Yeah they were definitely not holding back with this one!
It's disgusting
Picked up a bottle and out of my modest 20 bottle collection, this is my most potent fragrance
It's definitely up there for me as well!
Blind buy to replace my sauvage edt. I didn't like the ultra freshness of the edt as I thought it wasn't as masculine as I wanted it. This is the best sauvage, and dare I say, best fragrance I have ever used.
I can definitely agree. This is one of the best designer releases ever!
Agreed. Blind bought it (never had a sauvage fragrance since I was a ysl y fan) and have loved it sense. Its so mysteriously masculine let subtly sweet to my nose so I wear it a lot when I’m wearing all black or going for that vibe. 2 sprays get me through a whole day and night
Blind guy walks by the fish market everyday and lifts his cane saying good morning girls
@@marceldelvalle8855looking to buy the ysl y la parfum, u think it’s a good buy?
A fair review. I'll check some other review by you.
Thank you i appreciate that!
I bought elixir without much expectations only for it to go on and become my most complimented fragrance and still is today. Easily beating everything in my collection including creeds.
Sadly the scent has changed and it's not as strong as it was initially.
I have used up about 10 bottles from 2021 so i can very reliably compare it to the current batches.
It was released 2021 autumn, my earliest bottle that will always stay in the collection and barely get used is 1D, so 2021 april, possibly the first ever batch.
I feel like it’s one of the most versatile flankers of all time since it got so many different scents in it that you can adapt to the occasssion. I mean it was afterall the reason why I bought it.
Thats fair, sometimes it can be a bit strong for some situations however. But the pressure control atomizer makes it perfect for controlling that 👌
My bottle is from November 2022 and I have no issues with projection or performance. I can't see this having a reformulation even in 2023. I suspect people are just becoming noseblind because of how powerful it is
That's most likely true. It wouldn't reformulate for no reason, but then again, sauvage doesn't have a good hostory with it, so i understand peoples concerns
i use sauvage EDT since 2013 almost daily. i can barely smell it on myself but i always get compliments from women, sometime i only spray 1 puff, if more people look to me weirdly mybe bcoz i live in hot weather country. btw im scare to try elixir coz i dont want people look at me as guy that wear strong fragrance LoL
Elixir is very strong. A lot stronger than I thought when i first tested it. I go noseblind to most Sauvage fragrances very quick!
It is crazy strong
Sauvage edt wasnt released until 2015
Solid fragrance, wife loves it better than Original. There’s something magic on the dry down that smells even better on my skin . 2 sprays and your golden .(3 if going out at night but I usually still use 2)
Absolutely. Strong and smells very good!
Ever since I got an Elixir sample, I’ve been telling myself to go to a fragrance store and get it, it’s been MONTHS and I still haven’t gone to go get it 😂. I even bought my dream car (2023 Challenger 345 R/T BlackTop 5.7 Hemi Last Call Edition) and still haven’t gotten the Elixir 😂
Haha well hopefully you will get it soon!
@ChadSecrets hey do you know if this fragrance is reformulated yet?
@messimagisterial4216 despite rumors no, it has not been. They will most likely only reformulate if a new banned ingredient comes out
I personally prefer sauvage edp over the rest of the line, but the edt is not bad nor is the parfum. I'm not sure about the elixir, yet i haven't developed acquired the taste for it yet.
The elixir is different from all of them doesnt even relate to the dna. I prefer this smell over the sauvage dna but the edp is also very nice. I will go in deoth with the edp to test performance very soon!
Aw, I love you too. Subscribed.
Thank you!!
I'm planning to buy this perfume, hopefully this year 🙏.
I feel like you will love this one 👌
@@ChadSecrets save save save 😂
I already got 60 ml that I am using now plus 100 ml back up bottle
I know it wasnt officially stated anywhere about a reformulation, but i tested a march 2023 batch and a december 2022 batch side by side (from testers) and the results are as follows: while the scent was the same, there was a significant difference in performance. The 2022 batch lasted 23 hours on my arm, while the 2023 on the other arm lasted around 5 hours. So i cant say 100% that there has been a reformulation, but those results mean something IMO
Interesting. I doubt they would already reformulate this. Could be due to maceration
@@ChadSecrets yes, maceration can explain the 23 hours of performance. But the problematic thing is the fact the 2023 batch lasted barely 5 hours. I would like to think that maybe the tester was damaged (been too much in the heat or something) but i cant take any risks so i think i will get a back up bottle of the 2021-2022 batches. Cant ignore the findings Lol because 5 hours is very toned down for sauvage elixir
@@ChadSecrets by the way, this is the thing i really hate about the fragrance game. Sometimes it feels like a roulette. I had the same thing with 1 million parfum. Tested the fragrance 2 times in 2 different stores and it was amazing and laster extremely long on my skin. Bought a bottle and suddenly not only that it doesnt last so long, but it also changes its scent into a more metalic note after 2 hours. And i bought it in a very known and big brand store so extremely low chances of it being fake. Makes you worry about buying a fragrance already
Yeah I understand how you feel. I have had this happen to me with a variety of different fragrances over my times. I will look into this reformulation and see if I find the same findings. Thank you for bringing it to our attention!
You lying. Nothing edp lasts 23 hours on skin. Maybe 12 hours tops
Man, I wish they could give that longevity to the edt version
It used to be that way!
Very good video - can someone tell me if the parfume has been reformulated? Or is the performance still as strong/good? 👍
Thanks for watching! I doubt its been reformulated as its only been on market for 2 years
People online have said it’s been reformulated others say it’s the same whi knows 🤷♂️
@@cameron2900x its still so new. Most reformulations dont happen that fast!
@@ChadSecrets May not even be a reformulation just slight differences in batches that are easy to notice because it’s such a strong / good fragrance
This stuff packs a punch BUT I wouldn't be able to smell it at this moment. I couldn't even smell my Gucci Guilty Absolute today. Hopefully we'll meet next weekend.
Oh wow. That's saying something if you can't smell elixir!
Hope you feel better soon my man, looking forward to finally meeting you!
I assume you nailed 10 lines of blow the night before was the implication there?
For some reason some batches of it make me reek of bo wherever I spray it on my skin so I cant trust it enough tbh
This is a very common faked fragrance. Make sure your smelling the real one and not a fake. I find sometimes the testers at stores even have spoiled juice
My top go to when weather gets cold.
It's very good. It's one of mine as well
Is it bad if its in hot climate?
One of my favourite aftershaves But the smell on the new bottle is very weak and only last for about 30 minutes,
I’ve seen many reviews with the same complaint and Dior do not accept any responsibility and have a no return policy even if there is something wrong with the product, avoid buying it unless you want to waste your money,
There is no way its that bad. You sure yiu didnt buy a fake? There have been no current reformulations
@@ChadSecrets
I called Dior but they wasn’t interested so took it back to boots pharmacy they tested it against the one they had on display and agreed it was forty, because of the way I was treated by Dior I will never buy another one of there products
The best smelinig dior is formula from 1982c,dior extreme concentrated,
Never tried it before!
I wear it year round
I think it's good for that too!
I do one spray of the dior elixir under my shirt and it doesn’t seem as strong as its reputation is that normal?
Under your shirt? It will be harder to smell any fragrance under your shirt!
Had a few bad batches from Ulta but I found a batch that's nuclear 3L02 @@ChadSecrets
Has sauvage elixir been reformulated ? I want to buy a 100ml this week
Nope. You will know if it has if some new banned ingredient happens
Just picked up asad. Hope it smells the same!
I actually just ordered Asad. And will have to see for myself. I hear it has some welcome differences
@@ChadSecrets asad and 9pm are both selling 8-9000 bottles a month on Amazon alone... Crazy
how did it go
@@sutileditor it's pretty great
Which one do you prefer sauvage elixir or layton? Thanks.
Just by the scent, Layton i would say
Both fuck it
I have watched your video and one side of me says buy blind it and other side says don’t waist your money I never had Dior and I’m a bit scared would you recommend this Dior to me ? And also I have y edp and I like it so much is it smell like this elixir or nah ?
This is a lot more masculine, and i would definitely not suggest blind buying. Go to your local retail shop and sample it first to see if you like!!
Why are scents reformulated to deteriorate performance? Every scent goes through this cycle but why? By the time I learn about a bomb ass fragrance, it stops being a good performer
Usually because it contained something humans should not be absorbing into their skin
Allergy reasons.
People got allergies to the outdoors the laws are ridiculous lmao 🤣 if you can't stand my fragrance you were never meant to be around me haha 😂😂😂
1. Sauvage Elixir, 2. Sauvage Parfum, 3. Rasasi Hawas, 4. Amber oud Gold 5. I wish suavage edt was still nuclear but they destroyed it basically water after 3 hours 😅
elixir is the king of clubbing / party fragrances for guys 21 and up. cuts through anything and you will get noticed.
It's super strong. This stuff is great!
Did not try the sauvage edt, however the elixir is not my favourite smell. It doesnt suite my skin. Smells bad specially when I sweat.
It's has very crazy performance and not meant for situations where you would be sweating
@@ChadSecretslol right? If you’re gonna be sweating maybe be better to wear a casual fragrance with a mild potency.
Should I get the 60ml or 100ml? I want it for a lifetime. Is 60ml stronger formulation?
Just depends how much you want or like it.
I habe both : 60 ml and 100 ml bottles have the same formulation.
@etpourtant7512 Yeah, the bottle size doesn't affect scent profile. Batches are made and distributed speratly to bottles, so only thing that would affect it is the batch number.
Dont waste your money on this. It smells exactly the same as Drakkar Noir.
@@bumblebee5246😂😂😂😂 nothing like drakkar sauvage elixir is in another league 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Wait 5 sprays with that atomizer is like 20 sprays on a regular bottle???
Not exactly. But it is a lot
what happens if i use it in summer? will it affect the scent and longevity?
It wouldn't affect it, really. However, because of its scent profile, i would not suggest wearing it in summer. When mixed with higher heat, it could be a bit strong for those around you. Best suited for colder weather
It will. I live in a tropical country where it’s usually hot & humid. I placed 3 sprays & within 3 hours I could not smell it anymore on my skin. The longevity on clothes is much longer though. Projection is just average to moderate, for me… I even heard about other people developing “nose blindness” with it.
@@michaelgerardgosiengfiao9560 works better in the winter cold
I will also add that it depends on your environment and the circumstances. For example, if you are outside or in a more open space then i wouldnt suggest using it at the peak of the summer. Specially not on the beach. However, if you are like me and spending most of the day at the office with a very strong air conditioning that makes the entire office cool and chill, then i would say you can use it
I had such high expectations, only to be very disappointed when i smelled it
Unfortunately, that's usually what happens when you have high expectations. I was slightly the same. But I still really like it!
Smells like a old man who bathes himself with Drakkar noir
Hey bro how r u
Can I wear this perfume in summer time ??
You could, but imo its best suited for colder weather because how strong it is
@ChadSecrets
Yes I know elixir is very strong
I smelled whole line up of sauvage n I like edp n elixir that's why I'm conforming from u is it good to wear in summer or not
N recently I bought givenchy boisee nice perfume something different
What is the best online perfumes in your country ??
Also, have you ever heard of Fragrance prime in Canada
Finally, have you tried yet the New Armaf Line such as Iconic, Untold, Urban 🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐
Hey, I have not actually used fragrance prime before. Only can authenticate perfumeonline and fragrancebuy. I'll test out some other discounters this month!
@@ChadSecrets I bought so many times from Fragrance buy when they used Canada post for delivery, but After they start using Fed EX and UPS for delivery I start looking for another Supplier 🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐🖐
I know dior sauvage can be easily pulled off by women, but i'm wondering if elixir can? 🤔 i'm blind buying
It all depends on taste. If you are asking my opinion, i dont think this is a unisex offering, and I think it's a masculine smell. However, if the woman likes this fragrance and it boots her confidence to wear it, then all the power to her!
Sample first
@@ChadSecretsmy exceptionally beautiful female friend wears Elixir - but with her looks I don’t think guys care what she smells like 😂
So, it's not the best smelling or versatile but you call it the best sauvage?
Yeah pretty much
🔥🔥🔥
I kid you not I got 20 hours with this beast. Probably my most longest, lasting perfume in my collection.
It's an absolute beast for sure. Survives even washing clothes
@@ChadSecrets yes no joke this stuff is beast mode.
Could you please say what is your elixir batch number? Thanks in advance
Nevermind you said it in video 😂
Haha no worries. Bacth: 2C05
Your is from early 2022 and i bought late 2022 batch and its not so potent as you think now. 4-5 sprays i use of it even to office
Is it a legit bottle? And have you asked others if it's strong on you? Your nose will filter out strong scents rather quickly
Yeah legit bottle. I bought it at retail store so 100%
The dry down smells exactly like Club de nuit intense man… which is a $30 cologne. Both are performance masters. I think sauvage copied them
Lol what? Cdnim is a dupe of creed aventus. They both have quite different scent profiles
they definitely don't smell the same
Your nose is broken my friend.
Hehe picked up a 2021 batch from eBay 😅
My 23 batch ain’t doing me no justice.
Interesting. I didn't hear of any reformulations! Usually, it's pretty obvious when it's done. I did fear that happening eventually, though 🤷♂️
@@ChadSecrets yeah I picked up a 1D01 batch code, from 2021 quite old and well I’m excited to get my hands on it.
@@user-ps7xc1rd2hhow did it go?
This is their worst. It smells like old, old man. I'm 30. Don't wanna smell 80. Love how long it lasts & how powerful one spray is. Wish the EDT was like that. Have to do 5 sprays of that every 5 hours.
Definitely doesn't smell like old man lol. It's very modern masculine. This is how I remember the edt being when it came out 😅 I do prefer the smell of the edt, but its performance is no longer beastly
What? Bruh, i think you should take a break from the sweet candy smelling fragrances, so you can appreciate a modern masculine scent like Sauvage Elixir. It smells like a man, i swear all those unisex fragrances made some of y'all trippin
It is refined....great with a blazer, tux, leather. Wear half a spray for less formality.
people should never buy fragrances that have been weakened and boycott all designers
@@WhiteRangerTP my opinion regarding the elixir has switched exponentially since I last wrote that. It's a Top 2 Fragrance of mine now 😂
is this safe to blind buy?
Unfortunately, no fragrance is a safe blind buy
EDT?? just goes to show there's a fragrance for everyone in this lineup
Thats absolutely true!
Hey yeah it's actually pronounced "Day-ma-she"
@messimagisterial4216 thank you 👌
I have the 2M05 batch code which one is that ?
What you mean which one? checkfresh.com will tell you production date
@@ChadSecrets that’s the batch code on mine and idk it’s not beaaassst mode .. maybe it’s my nose but I was expecting this to be super powerful
@@rogerbrown240 You're good I have a 2L02 (Nov 2022) Batch and its NUCLEAR. I get 12+ hours all day long on my skin. I even sprayed it on a random card as well before I left work and my room still had a strong smell when I get home. You will go nose blind to this however
What is the buch code?
3:24
@@ChadSecretsi have a question bro, my english is not very well im sorry 😂
I bouth dior sauvage elixir in 2021 and the buch code was 1d01 it was amazing.
I bouht also in 2023 something that start with 3 abd it was refurmolated.
If i still have one from the 1xxx ia gonna be like the firat one?
No problem. There was never a reformulation to the best of my knowledge.
@@ChadSecrets im 10000% sure the 2021 is smell very very very diffrent
U heard about the rerormulation?
Not yet no. But if there is one affe ting performance I will make a video on it
@@ChadSecrets 🔥🔥
Elixir smelled much better imo, the others are too fruity and fresh.
The elixir is really good!
im 14 and i own this, am i cooked?
No chance! Just wear it with confidence my guy
Is it true it smells a lot like drakkar noir? Lol
It's in the same style of fragrance but this is way better in every way imo. It's also a lot more modernized
Yes it is true. Sauvage elixir stinks. Dont listen to youtubers ans tik tokers who rate this old man's perfume to the moon.
@bumblebee5246 bro just cus you dont like it doesnt mean others cant enjoy it.. Chill out its just a smell 😅
Blind bought it. Regretting it now. It's very synthetic.
I would say there are a lot more synthetic fragrances out there than this
@ChadSecrets it smells artificial to me, plastic-y. It may not be the most synthetic frag ever, but at the price point, and for all the incessant hype it's getting (wonder why?), it's pretty synthetically mediocre.
5 sprays and went on a restaurant my goodness people must have hated you lol ( yeah i'm going through most of your vids right now sorry if i'm becoming a nuisance )
oh they were not too impresdsed haha! i don't mind at all ha i am happy to know you are enjoying the content!
ON AMAZON ITS REALLY CHEAP
Its probably not real then
people should never buy fragrances that have been weakened and boycott all designers instead keeping buying that sh*t
Yeah, I can agree with that. But it won't happen 🤷♂️ Companies are usually FORCED to reformule due to new regulations and testing becoming more strict
$220/100 ML
That must be USD?
