By the editors · 2 min readSafari for Men arrived in 1992 as a deliberate statement of old-world masculinity — a dense aromatic fougère that takes its time developing and doesn't apologize for the space it occupies. Lavender and bergamot open the composition alongside neroli, the combination bright and herbal before cinnamon and tarragon in the heart introduce warmth and spice. The floral elements — jasmine and rose — are secondary here, providing depth rather than fragrance. The base is where it settles into itself: oakmoss, leather, patchouli, sandalwood, and amber building a warm, authoritative structure. Built for autumn, for overcoats, for someone who doesn't need to announce their arrival.
