How does a pour homme fragrance mimic the true essence of masculinity?
Wood chypre colognes are typically the utilitarian scents. It’s versatile – you can wear it on business meetings or special dates. It also has soapiness appeal which conjures up images of freshly laundered linen. If you want to project a no-nonsense man attitude, you cannot go wrong with wood chypres because there’s no hint of femininity in the notes. It is not meant to be a unisex fragrance either. Just manly virility inside out.
Safari Cologne embodies the true character of a man scent – assiduous, self-confident and pleasant. This woody aromatic concoction is composed of aldehydes, artemisia, coriander,neroli, lemon and bergamot at the top notes. The middel notes are borderline floral and spice: cyclamen, carnation, cinnamon, tarragon, jasmine and rose. The base is the highlight of the overall fragrance: leather, sandalwood, amber, patchouli, musk, oakmoss and cedar.
Safari best-fits the arid days of summer. The blend of masculinity and crisp freshness is well-balanced and pleasant. You can say that it’s a safe choice for an all-time masculine fragrance. The comforting aroma it conveys is also a classic elegance, a characteristic that is so Ralph Lauren.
Comparing Safari to the Polo Sport series, one perfume reviewer from basenotes.com thinks that this cologne is by far, the cream of the crop, “With a lot of the Polo/RL signature elements, this is the best of the bunch, and a rich, smooth, “grown up” Polo fragrance. Nice in its way, in fact, Safari is a weigh station on the way to something more mature and more personal to the wearer. But for what it is, a very pleasant weigh station, it is a fine thing.”
In this age of gourmand, ozonic and citrus notes, Safari represents what a true sophisticated gentleman should be. It is one scent you ought not to miss. It is the classic.
