I bought this a few months ago and hadn't had a chance to wear it in a while. Its a sunny day here and about 85 degrees as a high so this seemed like a nice choice. This is such a nice musky fresh scent with some fruity notes and a bit of citrus that reminds you that it is a nice warm weather scent. Projection - On the opening is good, but it settles into a very nice scent bubble for me or those I want to draw into my personal space (My Wife) 😎. Longevity - I tend to get a good hours before I start thinking about a respray. Sillage - This isn't too bad, it doesn't announce itself when you walk by but those that know, know.

So after a day with this one, it smells like someone took the original Sauvage Elixir, very similar to my nose At least, and made it very woodsy, along the same basic idea of Boss Bottled Elixir, but smell s so much better. This is an insanely masculine fragrance with typical beast mode for the Sauvage one up. A solid 8/10 because it does still lean towards the Elixir. Staying power is 9/10, sprayed it at 6:45 in the morning, saw customers and drove home arriving at roughly 6 pm. My wife smelled me as I walked n the door and was amazed, and still on my clothes from yesterday this morning. Full Bottle Worthy yes, BUT I have to say if you already have Elixir, it might be hard to justify getting this for $265 plus. I will add that I tried this at Dillard’s which seems to be getting samples now, goes on sale on the 31st. Mine was made for me, however I have seen people sharing photos of actual samples on Reddit, where the second picture is from.

I spent last night at the ER with my Mom, she was not feeling well. But, thanks God, everything turned up well. So I didn’t work today and took her on running errands. I decided to wear one of my signature scents by the end of the 90’s (launched in 1996 and relaunched in 2010) that contributed to makes me realize (at this time as a collector,) that I used to like a lot of the mens floral fragrances, like: Dolce & Gabbana pour Homme, Carolina Herrera for Men and 212 Men, Cartier Declaration, Estée Lauder Pleasures, Alfred Sung Hei, Claiborne for Men, Wings for Men Giorgio Beverly Hills, and many more. Yes I have always been a fragrance explorer, although there was times in with I married some fragrances for certain amount of time. The Dreamer continues to offer a refined, delightful, fresh and alluring experience. It’s perfect for the heat, it’s inoffensive for casual wear, with average projection and longevity.
