The take

What works

  • ●Floral-animalic-civet composition that's genuinely regal
  • ●Massive performance — sillage and longevity built for kings
  • ●A floral fragrance for men done with absolute confidence

Trade-offs

  • ●Old-fashioned in a way modern wearers won't tolerate
  • ●Heavy and animalic — not for the Sauvage crowd
