A luxurious amber-woody men’s fragrance with a bold blend of warm incense and cardamom on top, followed by vetiver-patchouli heart and a sophisticated cedarwood-labdanum base.
Boss Bottled Elixir, launched in 2023, is a powerful reinterpretation of the iconic Boss Bottled line. Crafted by perfumers Annick Ménardo and Suzy Le Helley, it opens with vibrant notes of warm incense and spicy cardamom. The heart fuses earthy vetiver and patchouli, while the base settles into rich cedarwood and creamy labdanum essence. This concentrated eau de parfum delivers intense projection and lasting depth, making it ideal for cooler weather or evening wear
