Dior's Sauvage and Versace's Eros scents topped the leaderboard with the most monthly Google searches
To shine a spotlight on the most popular male fragrances for Men’s Grooming Day, Edgewell-owned Wilkinson Sword has revealed the most searched-for scents by men this year so far.
The grooming experts collated the average number of monthly searches for the fragrances via search engine Google.
Topping the leaderboard was Dior’s Sauvage fragrance with 41,200 monthly searches.
Since launching in 2015, the brand has released a selection of flankers of the popular fragrance.
The latest edition features notes of mandarin, tonka bean and sandalwood, while Hollywood star Johnny Depp was tapped to front the latest launch.
In second place with 33,480 average hits was Versace’s Eros. Inspired by Greek mythology and named after the God of love and son of Goddess Aphrodite, the scent boasts strong woody notes with Italian lemon, mandarin and mint oil.
Cumulating almost half of Dior’s searches was the Invictus fragrance from Paco Rabanna in third place.
The scent has garnered 21,400 searches on Google so far.
Wilkinson Sword’s findings match up with that of The Perfume Shop, which also determined that Dior’s Sauvage fragrance was the most popular among all consumers so far this year.

Mandela Day
Mandela day is on the 18th of July. It was introduced by the former president Jacob Zuma on Mandela’s 91st birthday. It is a call for South Africans to volunteer 67 minutes to a meaningful cause. This is in an effort to commemorate Mandela on the 67 years he fought for freedom.
We would like it make it easier for you to participate this year by helping us to donate socks and blankets. You can choose to either donate R20-00 for a blanket, or R20-00 for a pairs of socks.
We would like to ask that our customers please support this cause. Our charities in Aliwal North desperately need these amenities to get their children through the very cold winter.
Please ask any of sales staff for more information. We thank you for your anticipated participation. We will be collecting for the whole of July.
“It always seems impossible until it’s done." - Nelson Mandela
