The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2015 by Hugo Boss, Boss Bottled Oud is an Oriental Woody fragrance created by perfumer Annick Ménardo. The composition opens with a fresh and fruity blend of apple and citruses, before transitioning into the warm and spicy heart notes of cinnamon and saffron. This contrasts beautifully with the earthy and woody base of agarwood (oud), sandalwood, and cypriol oil. Boss Bottled Oud encapsulates the essence of modern elegance, blending crisp freshness with rich, sensual undertones.

How to wear it

Boss Bottled Oud has a complex bouquet that unfolds over time. Start with one spray on each wrist and let it settle for at least five minutes before applying any additional layers. This allows the full depth of the fragrance to emerge, making it perfect for both daytime and evening wear.
