Boss Bottled

Boss Bottled is a woody spicy fragrance for men, made for Hugo Boss by Annick Menardo and Christian Dussoulier in 1998. Apple is the signature: crisp fruit with plum, lemon and bergamot at the top, a trace of oakmoss under them, then cinnamon, carnation and mahogany warming the heart. Vanilla, sandalwood, cedar and vetiver finish it. Fresh and sharp over a warm woody base, and easy enough to wear that it became a default. A limited anniversary edition followed. It lasts a moderate while and projects moderately. Spring and autumn, daytime.
