My fav is Eau Savage, but I want something cheaper for non special occasions, any recommendations?
 
Top tip for aftershaves.

Go on Secret Sales. You gotta get lucky but when they have bargains they are insane prices.

For a cheap day to day wear Clinique ‘Happy’ is a belta, and usually can be found for decent price (got a 100ml for 24 quid off secret sales)

Have a look at the key ingredients for Sauvage and what type of aftershave it is. Earthy, woody etc and then on some websites you can narrow your choices down by filtering to those types and go from there i.e. max price etc. See what other ones use similar ingredients and you'll find something for the right price.

I do prefer to go to the shop though and smell them as similar ingredients don't always equal similar nice smells unfortunately.

Have a look at noted aromas website, I use these quite a lot, there are all copies of well known aftershaves and I usually buy "Perth" which is what you're looking for in savage. They also sell tester bottles (5ml I think) for you to test before buying the right one for yourself.
Plus they're based in Durham so always good to help a north east business out

I bought bottles from the essence vault which is a similar thing. Got the suavage copies along with 2 others and it was good so next time I ordered it just got the savage. I save the real bottle as mcuhas I can.

My mrs procdeeded to complain a smelt of shi t everytime I sprayed it so I stopped putting it on. I didnt smell it to be honest but she wasn't impressed so I stopped wearing it. To be fair the liquid was a completely different colour to the first one so clearly something was different.

The expensive bottle depending on your finances are difficult to justify as everyday use.

I know I don't use mine (also dior sauvage) as everyday. And couldn't afford to.

But I must admit the amount of time it stays on you is crazy. I was had work in Belfast airport last week. I flew in on a Wednesday did the job and flew out 3 hours later. I sprayed some Tom Ford on my work jacket. This was a Wednesday last week and I'm still getting a whiff of it now!

I have used sauvage since I was 21 (thats a long time) Johhny Depp wears it because he heard I did :emoticon-0103-cool:

I bought something called Booze and Baccy once, I loved it, no one else did, maybe a version of Sex Panther?
