Best Dior Sauvage Alternatives & Dupes in Canada
We don't carry Dior Sauvage. Dior isn't a brand we decant, apart from J'Adore. What we do decant: two independent takes, aimed at two different bottles. Armaf Ventana is built on the original Sauvage. Lattafa Asad chases Sauvage Elixir instead, a different bottle in the same line. So pick your Sauvage first, then pick your dupe.
The two, in numbers
| Armaf Ventana | Lattafa Asad | |
|---|---|---|
| Built on | Dior Sauvage | Dior Sauvage Elixir |
| Concentration | Eau de Parfum | Eau de Parfum |
| Smells like | Bright citrus over lavender and soft woods | Black pepper and pineapple into tobacco and vanilla amber |
| Character | Fresh, peppery, clean | Bold, smoky sweet, strong |
| 2ml decant | $7.00 | $6.00 |
| 5ml decant | $11.00 | $10.00 |

If you just want plain Sauvage, get Ventana
Fresh, peppery, clean, with that crisp blue feel a lot of people love. Easy daily pick: work, errands, warm days.
Lattafa Asad is the loud one
Pepper over tobacco, warm and smoky, and it lasts for hours. It runs strong, so go easy. Reviewers put it at around 85 percent of the Elixir's DNA.
More on Armaf and Lattafa
Armaf belongs to Sterling Perfumes Industries out of the UAE, which spent years making bottles for other brands before putting out its own line around 2015. Lattafa started in the 1980s, also UAE, and is still run by the same family three generations in. Both have a page here: Armaf in Canada and Lattafa in Canada. The two dupes also sit together, with community video comparisons, in our Dior Sauvage Alternatives collection.
Frequently asked questions
Can I buy Dior Sauvage itself as a decant from Atelier Elemental?
No. It isn't in our catalog. The two Sauvage-adjacent bottles we do decant are Armaf Ventana and Lattafa Asad.
Which is the better dupe, Ventana or Asad?
Depends which bottle you're chasing. Ventana is the one built on the original Sauvage. If it's the Elixir you want back, that's Asad, and neither is trying to do the other's job. At $6 to $7 for a 2ml decant you can settle it on your own skin.
Can you get a Sauvage dupe to me outside Saskatchewan?
Almost. Provinces and territories both, but fragrance ships as a dangerous good, and a few remote fly-in communities are served only by air services we can't use. If yours is one, we tell you, cancel the order and refund it in full. Every decant is hand-poured from an authentic bottle in Regina, Saskatchewan. Orders over $55 ship free to the provinces. For Yukon, the Northwest Territories and Nunavut that free line is $150 instead. In Regina, any decant order of $25 or more gets free hand delivery.
