    I love Eau Sauvage and I loved this film. I don’t like the music in these ads though.

      I don’t dislike either song, but the songs don’t seem to fit the action.

        That’s actually what I mean, didn’t express myself well.

        That film is such a stunner. Both Schneider and Delon are unbelievably beautiful in it.

    He looks a lot like a young Alain Delon.

    Alain Delon and Eau Sauvage are a perfect match!

    I know this perfume is a classic, but I’ve never tried it, cause for some reason none of the department stores around carry it, I’ve only spotted it in various online boutiques. But now that I’ve seen the commercials I really do have to find myself a sample! :D Use to have a crash on Alain Delon in my younger days, and La Piscine is still one of my favourite films. It’s always provoking quite polar opinions from the audience.:)

    I used to wear Eau Sauvage myself (in my early twenties). It suited me, but probably not as much as it did Alain Delon. He was soooo handsome. He’s aged quite well too – certainly better than me. LOL!

      I still wear it once in a blue moon.

      Had to look up a recent picture of Delon — yes, not too shabby. But it would be hard to have to age at all once you’d looked like he did when he was young.
