What does Boss Spirit (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

The top is sharp and herbal, with galbanum, tarragon, peppermint and aldehydes. Lavender and geranium soften that green edge in the heart. It settles into patchouli, leather and sandalwood, with amber adding a little warmth.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall, spring and winter, with summer further behind. It leans towards leisure and nights out, and also fits business and daily wear. Most voters read it as masculine and classic. Versace L'Homme and Aramis Devin have a close profile.
