What does Boxeuses smell like?

In Boxeuses, animalic notes and Russian leather form the backbone, while birch and resins add a smoky, woody weight. Plant juice softens that hard edge a little. The accords also include floral, fruity and sweet sides, so it reads as more than plain leather: spicy and gradually sweetening.

Most voters pick fall and winter, rating the longevity as good and the sillage as moderate. It leans towards leisure, evenings and nights out. Feminine and masculine votes run close, so it sits truly in between. Roja Parfums Qatar and Kemi Luna have a close profile.
