Depends on how you are using the fonts: Only for TeX or systemwide?
For TeX save it into ../texlive/texmf-local/fonts/opentype/

for systemwide (includes TeX) into eg /usr/local/share/fonts/

xetex needs texhash, but luatex will create its own font database.

However, you can use the fonts only with xetex/xelatex and luatex/lualatex.
For pdftex/pdflatex you have to create some more files with fontinst. Kind
of complicated ...
