How it behaves in a formula

Across this library, Geranium appears 1 time as a top note, 4 times in the heart and 0 times in the base. Placement is the single best predictor of what you will actually smell: top-note materials are high-volatility and gone within the hour, base-note materials are fixatives that define the final and longest phase of the wear.

Compositions containing Geranium in this library average 10.8 hours of documented longevity, and skew toward autumn and spring wear. Treat that as a tendency of the floral family rather than a property of the material alone — dose, supporting accord and concentration all move the result.

Sauvage by Dior fragrance bottle

Dior

Sauvage

2015

Aromatic Fougere · Men

Composed by Francois Demachy in 2015, Dior Sauvage was inspired by wide-open spaces, rocky landscapes under a desert sun, and ozone-blue skies. The fragrance explodes with an intensely radiant and raw blast of juicy Calabrian bergamot paired with a sharp, crackling punch of black and pink pepper. The dynamic heart leans heavily into aromatic lavender, earthy vetiver, and a massive dose of spicy elemi resin. The foundation is dominated by an enormous quantity of ambroxan, creating a clean, mineral, slightly salty, and exceptionally persistent woody trail that grabs attention from yards away. It stands as one of the most commercially successful and widely recognized modern masculine compositions, defined by its high performance, striking contrast, and unapologetic projection.
