The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2024 by Hugo Boss and crafted by perfumers Dominique Ropion and Meabh McCurtin, The Collection Enigmatic Saffiano is a sophisticated blend of marine and saffiano leather notes. This unisex fragrance captures the contrasting elegance of formalwear through its leathery-aquatic composition, combining polished saffiano leather with fresh marine elements. Presented in a gradient glass bottle transitioning from black to gold with a silver cap, Enigmatic Saffiano emphasizes refined craftsmanship and contemporary style.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to ensure the marine notes and saffiano leather accord develop fully. This fragrance is designed to stay close to the skin rather than fill a room, making it ideal for intimate settings or daytime wear.
