7 Old Money Colognes (And Why Not Dior Sauvage)

7 Old Money Colognes (And Why Not Dior Sauvage) Old money colognes aren't about price or hype. They're about what a bottle was built to do. In this video, we count down seven colognes with documented histories, from Houbigant's Fougère Royale in 1882 to Dior's Eau Sauvage in 1966, and explain why none of them is Dior Sauvage. We cover Houbigant Fougère Royale, D.R. Harris Arlington, Santa Maria Novella Acqua di Colonia, Caswell-Massey Number Six, Guerlain Eau de Cologne Impériale, Acqua di Parma Colonia, and Dior Eau Sauvage. Along the way you'll hear the real stories, what's documented and what comes from the houses themselves, plus honest caveats about reformulation and LVMH ownership. This isn't a boycott of big brands. Three of these seven belong to the same group that sells Sauvage. The difference is purpose: Sauvage was built to be noticed, and these were built to sit quietly.
