Parfumour’s Interpretation of Ralph Lauren Safari

Safari is Ralph Lauren’s refined, outdoorsy green aromatic chypre, and our version keeps that classic character, built around the same notes with strong, lasting wear.

The Story Behind the Scent

Ralph Lauren built Safari in 1992 as a green aromatic chypre, pairing an aldehydic lavender and green opening with a rose, jasmine and carnation heart over an earthy vetiver cedar base for a refined, outdoorsy character.

Our interpretation follows that character, rebuilt at a high perfume oil concentration so it projects well and lasts on skin.

How Our Version Compares to the Original

We build ours as an eau de parfum with a high perfume oil load and sell direct, so you get the same green aromatic chypre character with strong projection and longevity.

It suits anyone who loves a green aromatic chypre scent.
