What does Boss Alive Parfum smell like?

Jasmine leads at the start, vetiver adds a woody firmness in the heart, and leather leaves a leathery trace at the base. The floral and fruity side is softened by sweet, powdery and creamy tones, while a spicy touch adds a slight edge.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters pick fall, winter and spring about equally, and summer less often. Leisure, daily wear and evening lead the occasions. Most voters read it as feminine, and some call it modern. Lush Silky Underwear and Nishane Hundred Silent Ways X have a close profile.
