About

About this formula

This is our faithful reconstruction of the Sauvage profile, a fresh composition in the Dior idiom. Expect bergamot, pink pepper, green apple, lavender and aldehydes up top, a core of radiant jasmine, clary sage and watery floral, and a long ambergris and cedar amber base.

Fidelity comes from getting the ratios right: every percentage in this sheet has been balanced so the accord reads the way the original does, from the first spray through to the base.

This is a beginner-level build of 12 materials; we recommend macerating the concentrate and diluting to roughly 18% for a wearable EDP. Most of the materials are stocked by the major hobby-perfumery suppliers, so sourcing is straightforward wherever you are.

You receive the complete weighable formula — names, CAS numbers, precise percentages and gram-scale figures — alongside dilution notes, maceration time and compliance pointers.

It is a rewarding study piece for anyone learning how a fresh accord of this kind is engineered, and a reliable formula to keep in rotation once you have it dialled in.

Questions

Frequently asked

What skill level does the Sauvage formula need?+

This formula is rated beginner. It uses 12 materials and comes with step-by-step maceration and dilution guidance, so it is suitable even if this is your first build. Every material is listed with its CAS number so you can source the exact item.

Where do I buy the ingredients?+

All of the materials are stocked by the major hobby-perfumery suppliers in the US, EU, UK and Australia. Each material includes its CAS number to make ordering unambiguous, and our free Ingredients Guide lists trusted suppliers by region. Specialty bases are flagged with supplier notes in the formula.

How much fragrance will this make?+

The formula is given per 100 g of concentrate, with grams-per-100g figures for every material, and our on-screen batch calculator scales it to 10 g, 50 g, 1 kg or any size instantly. Diluted to roughly 18% in perfumer's alcohol, a 100 g concentrate batch makes around 500 g of finished eau de parfum.

Is it legal to make a clone of a designer fragrance?+

Yes, for personal use. Fragrance scents themselves are not protected by copyright, and our formulas are original reconstructions — our own interpretations, not the houses' confidential formulae. Trademarks protect names and logos, which is why we describe formulas as "inspired by" a fragrance and never use brand logos. Read more on our blog about clone-formula legality.

What about IFRA compliance?+

Each formula includes IFRA notes. The percentages describe the concentrate; your skin-level exposure depends on the final dilution. If you ever sell or gift a finished product you should check the current IFRA Standards for restricted materials and confirm the maximum for your product category. For personal use, always patch-test and follow supplier safety data.

Can I get a refund on a formula?+

Because formulas are digital products delivered instantly, we do not offer change-of-mind refunds. We will, however, refund or correct any formula that contains a genuine material error within 7 days of purchase. See our refund policy for details.
