What does Safari Extreme smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evening and night out lead the occasions, with leisure and business use further behind. Masculine is the most common impression, though a fair share also read it as feminine.

The top holds mango, bergamot, mandarin orange and French orange blossom, which give the fruity brightness. In the heart, orange blossom, rose, jasmine and cedarwood bring a floral, woody turn. The base of musk, sandalwood, amber, oud and vanilla leaves a sweet, smoky, leathery trail. Guerlain Santal Royal (Eau de Parfum) and Swiss Arabian Attar al Ghutra have a close profile.
