Boss Bottled Absolu

Mostly sweet resinous warmth, soft and slightly powdery. Underneath that, thick sweet resin, like tree sap or balsam.

It opens on incense and leather, moves through patchouli and myrrh, and settles on cedarwood and davana.

• incense: dry resinous smoke, the smell of a church rather than a bonfire
• leather: like a new leather jacket: dry, smoky, faintly bitter

It lasts well and carries into a room.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
