What does Safari (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. It mostly reads as feminine and classic. Jil Sander Woman III and Halston Catalyst have a close profile.
The top pairs aldehydes, blackcurrant, orange and galbanum, so fruity brightness meets a sharp green edge. The heart builds a floral body from rose, jasmine and orris root. The base of vetiver, patchouli, cedar and moss leaves an earthy, woody floor.
