From the last link

1st sneeze : A tes/vos souhaits!

2nd sneeze : A tes/vos amours! (que les tiennes/vôtres durent toujours)

3rd sneeze : A tes/vos aïeux!

4th sneeze : Crève!

    Upvote because I happened to learn something new (not that this is very exceptional, but still) with the 2nd, 3rd and 4th sneezes. – Laurent S. Oct 17 '19 at 13:50
