The exotic and spicy fragrance of Savant is the perfect scent for any man. Top notes include cinnamon, nutmeg cardamomand grapefruit; heartier lavender contributes to this eaux de toilette's balanced character throughout its whole development time (which can be unequal). Licorice acts as a base note providing it with an earthy sweetness not found elsewhere -a fine balance between freshness from citrus oils combined nicely with the sweetness of anise and fennel. The overall is a masculine, sophisticated scent that is sure to please any man. Whether you are looking for a new signature scent or just want to try something different, Savant is a great choice.

This scent smells amazing and in my opinion a little better than the original. You canโt go wrong with Savant!

For $15 it's not terrible
I will start by saying I'm a collector. I have approximately 15 bottles ranging from $150 to $500 and around 20 bottles up to $150.
If I wanted to be extra critical, I would have given 3 stars instead of 4. But I feel, considering all factors (price, delivery, presentation, and the scent itself), Savant by Maison Kin warranted 4 stars.
The good: for $15 you get a fragrance that has many recognizable traits. It's strong but not overpowering. It blends well with deep woody scents like Most Wanted or lighter woods like K. The longevity is surprisingly acceptable considering the price. Sillage and projection are moderate and decrease rapidly after a couple of hours. The bottle is a nice touch. The label is pretty low quality but that's mostly a non-factor considering the price of the bottle. The atomizer is on the lower end of quality but, again, the bottle was $15 plus shipping and taxes.
The bad: the blending is exactly what you'd expect for $15. Strong alcohol vapor immediately upon spraying. Minor chemical smell until the scent evens out. Top notes fade rapidly, much faster than premium accords. Like I said in "the good", the atomizer is low quality. For this scent and brand, I would be glas to pay $25 for a high quality atomizer if everything else were the same.
The neutral: I bought this cologne and macerated it myself for 14 days. It resulted in the chemical smell being slightly reduced. The alcohol vapor is still ever present. My process for maceration was tipping the bottle upside down and spraying until nothing came out, spraying a few more times with nothing, then bringing it upright and spraying until two full sprays of liquid were released, then storing the bottle in a cool and dark area for 14 days. Judging by the aromatics used, I think a longer maceration would produce better results. I will continue to macerate for up to 3 months. I think this will result in an overall better scent experience.

I recently purchased Maison Kin Savant, inspired by Dior Sauvage Elixir, and I couldnโt be happier. The fragrance is exceptionally well-crafted, long-lasting, and smells fantastic. It offers outstanding quality and performance. Highly recommended!

The lasting effect is about 15 mi
We're sorry it didn't perform as expected for you. Longevity can vary from person to person based on skin chemistry, application, and even the environment. Many of our customers experience significantly longer wear, but everyone's experience is different.
I noticed you purchased three different fragrances. If I may make one suggestion, try wearing one fragrance at a time and evaluate it over several hours. Smelling multiple fragrances in quick succession can lead to olfactory fatigue, making them seem weaker than they actually are. We hope you'll give them another try this way.

I bought this on a whim. But i paid $20 after shipping and whatnot, and got a decent sized bottle of fairly pleasant cologne. It came with 5 sample bottles of other colognes. I had my eye on "Vivo" which is supposedly inspired by Versace eros, a cologne i smelled before and really want, and it was one of the samples i got. The sample smells really good, but i am not reliable to compare it to the real thing. I do not feel scammed in any way. Good product ๐.

Enjoyed the fragrances. Two concerns are: My package was labeled and waiting for pick up for shipping for many days until I initiated tracking status report from USPS. Also, I am missing one of my items I selected. NOMAD was not sent to me.
Hi Glenmore: our customer service team has reached out to you and will take care of this matter for you. I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused.
Unfortunately, weโve been experiencing an issue with USPS recently. Packages are not being scanned on time, resulting in the โlabel createdโ status appearing on your end. Weโve already informed USPS about this issue and will continue to do so to ensure that itโs resolved promptly.

So letโs be clear
So letโs be clear. I ordered 10 bottles because the price was great. Honestly they should be priced for more. All that I ordered smells amazing. Everyone one of them are amazing. They project for about an hour and the dry down is faint. If the silliage was better or the oil concentrations was stronger the longevity would be beast mode. I probably wonโt order again. Not because of the smell but because of the performance
Thank you so much for the honest feedback โ and for giving us a chance with such a big order. Weโre really glad you loved the scents themselves.
Performance is something weโve been heavily focused on, and weโre excited to share that our upcoming collection has been completely reformulated for much stronger projection and longevity. The new fragrances are testing at 8โ12+ hours wear with significantly stronger sillage and a richer dry down experience.
We truly appreciate reviews like yours because they help us improve and push the brand forward. Hopefully weโll get the chance to win you back with the next release.

Good scent but doesnโt last. Same is the case with other scents too. In my collection its just Vere & Wolf that last a bit.
Thank you for your honest feedback. Weโre glad you enjoyed the scent profiles, and we appreciate you sharing your experience regarding longevity.
Performance can vary quite a bit depending on the fragrance composition, skin chemistry, weather, and even application method. Some scents, especially fresher or lighter profiles, are naturally softer compared to deeper, heavier blends like Vere & Wolf.
That said, we always aim to strike a balance between scent quality, wearability, and performance, and feedback like yours genuinely helps us improve future batches and formulations.

Not my favorit. Its ok bit nothing i would wear everyday .
Thank you for your feedback, and weโre sorry Savant wasnโt the right fit for you. Fragrance is such a personal experience! You might enjoy experimenting by layering it with another scent to create a new blend that suits your taste better.
