HUGO BOSS Boss Bottled Elixir Parfum, Created by perfumer Annick Mernado, this fragrance offers a subtly smoky, incense-rich, and spicy Oriental aroma, with a cedar dry down. It may bring to mind the atmosphere of a Sunday mass. While it shares qualities with Sauvage Elixir, I personally prefer this. Although not officially noted, there appears to be a cade oil element contributing to an ashy scent. Additional detected notes include frankincense, olibanum, cardamom, cedar, patchouli, and labdanum.
