Aromatic Spicy
WOW, Amazing Fragrance ! Masculine, Spicy, Unique and Nostalgic. In my opinion, It is the best of Boss Men's perfumes, Unfortunately, this is discontinued and hard to find nowadays. It opens up with fresh spicy, citrusy, green notes in the background then dry down is creamy woody spicy, I don't get The Leather note in this scent, The Caraway and Coriander notes are dominant in this perfume. I really enjoy it and I'm so happy that I have it in my collection. Longevity is good. Highly Recommended.
Thumbs Up.

Fragrance history - aromatic, masculine, timeless
Elements is a lost jewel! Anyone who knows it will appreciate it. Fruity freshness, aromatic herbs and a great woody note. I liked it very much back then, but today I would be delighted to be able to smell it again.

The opening has this great fruitiness with plum, bergamot and mandarin. In the heart, juniper and herbs provide spicy support, which underlines the freshness of the fragrance, before the base becomes more earthy and woody with cedar, sandalwood and moss.

The fragrance is very balanced, elegant but not old-fashioned. It's a shame that this fragrance has been discontinued. Well, the H/S were not quite as strong, but neither is Louis Vuitton :-)
But decide for yourself

Anyone who knows him will like him!
The good 90s, Vatti used to have the scent on more often than I thought.

Mostly when he went out, shopping, to the park, parents' day, etc
He had it on again and again...
And then, after spraying it on, you always get this lovely spicy note alà tarragon and slightly spicy oakmoss
- Covered by a ripe plum
Cedar wood rounds off the whole thing on top.
This combination is simply wonderful, in my opinion the fragrance is even more timeless than ever!
It even keeps up with some of today's "modern" fragrances!
I have often been told off for this fragrance, but mostly by younger men over 20

"- Hugo Boss Elements?! I don't know it, I'll have to have a look, but it sounds interesting"

Although it is a rather restrained fragrance in terms of sillage, its fragrance DNA is more than interesting in itself.

Its longevity is also above average.

But give it time to develop on the skin, otherwise it won't be interesting.

Since the Elements Eau de Toilette and the Elements Aqua Eau de Toilette are real exotics and both also have a very good and interesting fragrance DNA, I can highly recommend the Elements.

A perfume that has all the elements in it. It comes a cross as a fruity-fougere
A plum note to die for. Stunning, but sadly long gone now.

Lovely frag, profoundly masculine. One of my favourites from that sadly bygone era.
