The style of Safari
The strongest accord is woody (100%), followed by earthy and patchouli. You will probably like it if you enjoy woody and earthy smells and notes like patchouli and tobacco. Less obvious notes include coriander and papyrus. Perfume fans rate it 4.03 out of 5.
For work or for evenings
It works better at night than in the day, so it is a good pick for evenings, dinners and going out.
Safari longevity
It stays on skin for about 6 to 9 hours, so one spray in the morning can carry you through the day. As an Eau de Parfum, it has more perfume oil than an Eau de Toilette, which helps it last. Mancera Red Tobacco lasts longer, if that matters to you. Base notes like tobacco and oakmoss are the part that stays longest on the skin.
Best seasons to wear it
The best time of year to wear it is fall and winter. It is less suited to summer. Ranked by season: fall, winter, spring and summer.
Sillage and projection
Projection is strong: people around you will notice it. Two sprays are usually enough. Mancera Red Tobacco spreads further.
