Adopted

Right from the start, I want to say that this fragrance is, despite the similar name, as far away from the "normal" Boss Bottled Eau de Toilette as it could possibly be. You get a completely different DNA here; apart from the name and the bottle, the two have nothing in common.

Now, let's get to the scent itself. The opening is characterized by very spicy, smoky, and woody notes. I immediately had associations with a coniferous forest, and I also noticed similarities to "Sauvage Elixir | Dior." The characteristic woody notes remain relatively present throughout, although the fragrance becomes significantly less spicy, softer, sweeter, and somewhat resinous. This DNA is definitely not straightforward and could rub some people the wrong way.

The sillage is not particularly strong; as the wearer of the fragrance, you experience it the most. However, the longevity is quite good, and a whole workday is definitely possible with an appropriate dosage.
Thanks to the rather mediocre sillage, I believe this fragrance is also well-suited as a daily wear and for the office. I know that, in principle, any fragrance can be worn by any age group and gender, but I personally see this more on a slightly older man, around the early to mid-30s.

The price should also be mentioned here. At the time of this review, you can get 100ml for around €75. That's already a strong overall package, very good value for money. Moreover, Boss fragrances are often available at discounted prices, which makes it even more attractive.
But before you rush to buy 100ml, I would recommend testing it first - for example, here in the Souk ;)
