How can I tell whether a bottle of Sauvage Eau de Parfum is the current formulation?
A batch code alone does not tell you which formula is in a bottle.
To check a particular bottle, ask Dior or the retailer about its batch code. Owners' side-by-side comparisons are not confirmation from the house.
What does the concentration label on Sauvage Eau de Parfum mean?
Sauvage Eau de Parfum is sold as Eau de Parfum (EDP), a label generally used for a higher fragrance concentration than eau de toilette.
No body standardises these labels, so one does not tell you how long a scent lasts or how far it carries, and versions sold under the same name can differ.
