Nice patchouli scent. Really well blended by Ménardo. Classic but still modern. It has a smoky-woody-green facet from Cistus and incense.

Woody, smoky, resinous and very sweet. It smells quite cheap, synthetic and a bit cloying. Also patchouly and spiced with cardamom.

Softer than Suavage Elixir and replaces oakmoss with a beautiful smoky scent. Incredibly stylish and high quality.

Little Boss Bottled DNA, however, is a brave and creative designer. Dark, slightly smoky and mysterious. An Elixier to my taste

Like incense notes? This is simply a must! Out of all the recent Elixir drops, this might be my favorite. It's a spicy, winterized dream.

Cardamom bomb, leather, amber, then resinous/patchouli. Reminds me of a economic oud frag. Careful in hot, closed spaces. Drydown=better

Getting shaving foam vibes from this, And for that reason, it's resembling MM's At the Barbers. This is like an ambery version of that scent

An Elixir of Audacity
Probably the best Designer’s release of the year: daring, different, masculine, powerful…Very powerful: I took a shower and it still smells great. (!) Expect more than 10 hours.

If you are looking for something with a candy smell, look elsewhere... But if you want a fragrance with character, this is the one.

Boss Bottled Elixir requires dressing well and not being a wimp, because otherwise you’ll look like a parody. It isn’t for teenagers, either… This is the fragrance of a CEO, an entrepreneur or a successful businessman... That's the idea.

It’s dense, dark, slightly sweet and warm without losing a bit of character and mystery. Essence of incense, vetiver and cedar wood are the declared notes, in fact the backbone of an exquisite composition.

Here you have a perfume in which I think it’s better not to get distracted by over-analyzing the nuances of the notes, but to immerse yourself in it and feel it as an aura that exhumes audacity, creativity and talent.

… But keep this in mind: You have to smell it on the skin, because it’s a complex scent that doesn’t express itself adequately on paper - as was the case with Boss Bottled Parfum, too -.

This elixir is excellent, but try before you buy: It is neither common nor intended for the average Joe. So in a nutshell:

The scent of a BOSS.

Excellent job
I must admit with great pleasure that I am very surprised that Hugo Boss has released such a perfume and it is undoubtedly one of the best, if not the best, mainstream releases in 2023 year. The opinions so far have been very polarizing, but after learning about Bottled Elixir, I am definitely on the side of the flatterers.
The scent is great and a bit in the spirit of Sauvage Elixir, with more than just the elixir name in common. I even wonder if Bottled Elixir is better. It doesn't have that ambroxan cloud in the background that is released after a few hours in Dior's Elixir, and which bothers me a bit in Sauvage. However, there is a similar chord of burnt, sweetish, spicy spices, but later these compositions go in different directions.
Bottled Elixir is an extremely neatly crafted conglomeration of heavy, earthy, smoky and sweet notes. It is a rich composition that requires an appropriate setting as well as maturity and courage, because these perfumes are not only heavy and strong, but above all demanding, bordering on a niche and original in their tone. Difficult, but very enjoyable.
The parameters are as they should be, the projection is intense, long and expressive.
I'm already hunting for a bottle. Once it is in hand, I will complete my impressions because for now they are based only on 2 global tests.

Designer goes niche
To me this is the designer take on something like the L'Air du Desert Marocain from Tauer. It’s good to see designer brands go out of the ordinary and do something different but this is not that original.

Overall, it’s a good fragrance, one of the best releases of the year from the designers with great performance. It’s a good fragrance to get into the niche style of perfumery!

The mass appealing Amouage DNA
You have to gatekeep this or if you have been asked about it just say it's amouage and you would be believed because of the offered niche quality by this fragrance.

If you want something mass appealing and unique at the same time you have to rock this! A masterpiece that's inspired by different niche offerings like MFK Grand Soir + Amouage Interlude + Au Coeur du Désert Tauer Perfumes with the spiceness taken from Dior Sauvage Elixir.

Mix all these masterpieces together and then VIOLA!! you got Boss Bottled Elixir!
Unexpected from Boss to make such a great fragrance, So get yourself a backup bottle before it gets reformulated or discontinued as it's not strange from HUGO BOSS to take a fragrance out!

BANGER FOR THE BUCKS! Congratulations you have Amouage!

The scent that changed my idea about Boss
Hugo Boss was always lacking in terms of fragrances for me. Some of the fragrances from Bottled line were actually good, but none of them were top-class. The Scent line’s idea was original and interesting form me, then it turned out to be a disaster except for a few ones. So when I was going to smell the new elixir, I was not expecting too much. How good this hugo boss fragrance could be, right? Well, it turned out to be TOP class. Frankincense, Cardamom, dense patchouli, labdanum, cedarwood; smoky, chocolatey, leathery undertones; scent-wise niche quality and beastly performance without being over-sweet or too synthetic. So good to the point that this one is my favorite designer release of 2023 by far, much better than the le male elixir and other competitors. Performance wise it lasts about 14 hours in my skin with a massive projection, best for winter and fall. A type of fragrance that you will enjoy with a cup of filtered coffee and a cigarette/cigar on a really cold day. This fragrance would be amazing for a date night. As a summary, this fragrance is so good that it changed my overall opinion on Boss fragrances that I am hyped when they release a new fragrance ( The scent elixir was HORRIBLE, but I have high hopes for triumph elixir.)
