About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Boss Bottled (1998) opens with a brisk, fruity-spicy burst: apple and plum laced with bergamot, lemon, oakmoss, and geranium. The top leans brighter and more aromatic than many modern flankers, with a green-tinged tartness that keeps the sweetness in check. As it dries, cinnamon and carnation add a warm, slightly clove-like spice, while mahogany gives a dry, woody backbone that feels polished rather than heavy.

The base is where Boss Bottled earns its collector status: vanilla and sandalwood wrap around cedar, vetiver, and an unusual olive tree note, creating a smooth, warm, woody-fruity finish. It suits men who want a versatile signature for office, evening, or cool-weather wear—less sharp than a pure fougère, less sweet than a gourmand. If you appreciate 90s woody-spicy masculines with a soft vanilla trail, this is a cornerstone bottle. The olive tree note is the detail to watch for in older batches.

中文簡介

Boss Bottled(1998)以蘋果、李子與佛手柑、檸檬、橡苔、天竺葵開場,果香中帶微酸綠意,唔會過甜。中調玉桂、康乃馨散發溫暖辛香,桃花心木提供乾爽木質骨幹。基調香草、檀香、雪松、香根草與橄欖樹交織,成就順滑暖木果香。氣質係沉穩、乾淨、帶少少復古感,適合辦公室、約會或秋冬日常。想搵九十年代木質辛辣男香嘅收藏家,呢支係經典入門;留意舊批次嘅橄欖樹細節。
