WoodyWhat does Boss Man / Boss Orange Man (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
Apple in the top gives a fresh, fruity start. Spices and frankincense in the heart add a firmer edge, while bubinga wood and vanilla leave a woody base with a sweet finish. A synthetic touch runs through the overall character.
Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring, summer and autumn, with winter a less common choice. It leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office, and reads as masculine and modern. Hugo Boss Boss Bottled (Eau de Toilette) and La Rive Grey Point (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
