This is a VERY attractive and mass-appealing masculine fragrance. It comes across as very fresh and spicy with some woody elements and perceivable sweetness from the lavender making this a pretty popular scent among the people who smell it on me. Maybe not a particularly UNIQUE fragrance but it's literally cloning Dior's Sauvage which is by no means a groundbreaking cologne BUT they did accomplish their goal of making a comparable cologne of better value. Aromatic Star Anise is definitely a viable substitute for Sauvage eau de toilette which makes it a success in my book. This is my second Dossier fragrance and I have yet to be disappointed.

I bought this kind of just expecting it to smell a little like Savage so I can not spend as much on the real thing all the time. WHEN I SAY I WAS FLOORED AT THE COMPARISON BELIEVE ME I still have half a bottle of Savage AND IT SMELLS EXACTLY LIKE IT 100% and the longevity is equal or dare I say a little better by an hour or so

*BEWARE* DOES NOT LAST LONG

Overall this fragrance smells good and it is pretty similar to the original Sauvage. However, I find ZERO reason to buy it or any of Dossiers fragrances again because they will last strong for maybe 30 minutes and then completely die. The longevity and performance of the perfumes are absolutely terrible. Yes, it is fraction of the price, however you need to spray more sprays for other people to even smell it and at that point, you might as well buy the real thing. I had high hopes but was ultimately disappointed. I bought three different perfumes and they all turned out the same.

Men's Must Have

At first I was slightly concerned this would smell like black licorice due to the anise but this is a fantastic darker scent that is great for layering. I use aromatic pineapple with this one and the sweetness of that scent really helps this pop. I get complemented on it regularly. Definitely a great standalone daily scent as well.

Smells most similar to Sauvage EDP over EDT & Parfum

This smells nice, however the star anise note is way way too strong and unfortunately ruins it for me. If they toned down the anise a few notches to make it not so BAM in your face, it would honestly be a great fragrance, just needs smoothed out somewhat. With that being said, it most resembles Dior Sauvage EDP with the anise note, rather than the EDT or the Parfum (both of which I happen to like much better than Sauvage EDP exactly because of that prominent anise note). So yeah, future buyers should know Aromatic Star Anise is modeled after Sauvage EDP and has a sharp anise note. Im sure Dossier makes some great scents though as I really want to get the Ambery Sage, Citrus Ginger, Spicy Vanilla, etc.

My favorite scent from Dossier so far

I love this scent. Its so warm and I always get compliments on it when I wear it around someone for the first time. I love a little goes a long way. Not too much and youll be drowning in it and itll over power too much. The smaller amount you wear the better. Will definitely last you a long time

Masculine, exotic and soapy

My favorite DOSSIER offering of the 5 scents I purchased together is this one. It smells like exotic soap from far down the silk road. The Lavender and Anise shine and blend well with all the other notes. It's complex and magical. Moderate Projection Moderate Sillage Average Longevity about 5 hours tops

Star anise = Sauvage

First fragrance Ive tried from Dossier and this smells exactly like Sauvage! I own the Sauvage EDT so I did a test with my brother, I sprayed Dossier Star Anise and he sprayed Sauvage on his skin, none of my family members could tell the difference in scent, definitely would recommend and will be trying other scents

Legit replica

I tried a sample of Sauvage cologne from Armani and bought this sprayed each on one of my husband's wrists. I showed him the price tag of each...then he sniffed each one. He couldn't tell a difference and neither could I. His #1 favorite so far he doesn't wear foo-foo that much but he told me to make sure he never ran out. Thanks Dossier

WOW

I am not going to lie, I was not sure what to expect. In fact, I initially purchased this scent after some lighthearted peer pressure and jokes about JD. The scent arrived today and I casually sprayed some on my wrist not expecting much as I am incredibly picky about masculine scents even though I often prefer them to feminine. I was punched in the face with aroma. This smell is clean and masculine but not overly harsh. There is a smooth spicy sweetness (probably the anise) that is just absolutely intoxicating, especially as I'm not usually a spicy cent kinda gal. I made my roommate sniff it and she went back for more sniffs, eyes closed and everything. I am now purchasing a bottle for her boyfriend. Smells like a more mature grown man version of the AF scents we all grew up obsessed with in middle school. Would recommend.
