What do reviewers say about Hugo and Safari?
Some fragrances want to own the room. This one is for the person who walks in and doesn't need anyone to look up. Moderate projection, intimate sillage.Hugo
Safari doesn't ask permission. That aldehydic green opening either pulls you in or makes you wait, but give it an hour and the jasmine-rose heart makes believers of skeptics.Safari
