I'll take it off your hands. My son loves that stuff and it's very expensive.

WeeOrcadian · 25/12/2024 10:39

You're not the one walking around wearing it

Sell it on eBay? Does DS like it?

LaLaLaLaLaLaLaLaLaa · 25/12/2024 10:42

It smells very strong at first and then settles, I love it and there’s a reason why it’s so popular/expensive.

If it’s not to his taste he’ll have no problem selling it on I’m sure!

Who cares what you think, it's for your DS. If he likes it, fantastic. If he doesn't, gift it to someone else or donate it.

It's Christmas day. Stop finding pathetic reasons to complain and try to enjoy the day, or at least let your family enjoy it without you bringing everyone down.

Unhelpful, I know, but you've reminded me of this. Maybe if you show DS it might put him off? Merry Christmas 🎄

They were both abusive and toxic to each other.

It’s always Dior Sausage in our household!

Babadookinthewardrobe · 25/12/2024 10:59

Sausage pour homme to be precise!

Sure were. Six of one, half dozen of the other.

My 23 y.o bought this for himself as his first fragrance. I was so surprised i googled
info on it. It is strong and lasting and i now can recognize it on others. I do think its a frhrance that interacts with the wearer and suits some but not all He has since switched to dior homme in a sport cologne or
some such marketing label. Its a polarizing fragrance but its loved by uni age men

Sladuf · 25/12/2024 11:05

YANBU. There isn’t one fragrance that everybody will like/love. Perfectly reasonable to not like the smell.

I find Sauvage very synthetic smelling and don’t think it’s anywhere near the calibre of other Dior fragrances. It reminds me of cleaning products and the scents of cheap shower gels you could get given at Christmas. It isn’t worth the price tag for that reason in my opinion.

boulevardofbrokendreamss · 25/12/2024 11:12

I love it.

ByHeartyCyanMentor · 25/12/2024 11:24

My Dad wears that - so it smells like old men to me.

MurderousFrieda · 25/12/2024 11:25

I like sauvage, DH has got some

Pyjamatimenow · 25/12/2024 11:26

I thought it was nice when I first smelled it but dh had it on all the time when I had morning sickness so now I can’t stand it

Poor op, you really accidentally started something!

Wonder why people are so defensive of it?!

Maybe chronicallysleepy needs a nap...

Eau Sauvage is the old men smell (to me), not this one.

Goldenboysmum · 25/12/2024 11:44

Well it was my late sons favourite so I think you're being unreasonable, but im biased😅

Seriously though, if you don't like it you don't like it. What a boring world it would be if we all liked the same things 😀

slightlydistrac · 25/12/2024 11:57

It's at times like this I feel grateful for being anosmic.

Tittyfilarious · 25/12/2024 12:01

I like it 😄
