I really believe that the middle eastern fragrance market has rly put that needed pressure on the designer brands, incentivizing them to step up their game
Absolute beast! First time I used this I tried it on my arm in the store. Later that night I had a long hot soak in the bath; full body wash. After I got out and dried off I could still smell it on my arm!!!
@@wayne2150 1 spray on the hand. Full wash with Soap then with shower gel. then hand soap. 1 coconut creme and 1 oil and i still smelled it on my hand, slightly but still there. it absolut sticky beast.
After watching reviews, and reading on fragrantica, and testing it in the store i just had to! This smells amazing what a banger man! lasts 9hours on my skin, just perfect!
I’ve been testing this one every day since the release in Europe, and was gonna be strong and say no. But … it’s not possible! It’s just insanely delicious! And … layering it 50/50 with 705 Leather & Oud from N.C.P. Olfactives is just INSANE!!! It’s like seeing a double rainbow. 😭🤤 Boss bottled Elixir & Absolu are just ridiculously phenomenal! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 And Triumph … wow.
Great review. This scent is incredible. It's a nice warm spice, semi-sweet, with a touch of smoke. It's hands down my fall/winter scent this year, along with Boss Elixir. Two great scents, Boss!
I bought it yesterday and wore it for a night out...14 hours later you could still smell it. Even after I took a shower there was a slight scent of it.
@@Alritealritealrite me personally triumph elixir becauee it has a different scent profile than both bottled elixir and absolu, but it all comes down to personal preference and your collection. I got a couple of comments on my first wear with triumph. But i can see it performing great during these fall nights
How did boss become the best designer house over night lol. Bottled elixir. Bottled Absolu and the scent elixir are 3 of my fave designers in recent years
It’s a monster. 2 sprays might even be overkill for me, but it’s a terrific balance of everything. Not overly sweet, not overly spicy. In case anyone sees this in time, Sephora is giving 20% off on the full-size right now.
I have this, And i have used 75% Of the Bottle, and that should indicate that im sold. I haven't tried other boss Bottled, but clearly this fragrance is for the fall, Winter & Date nights, cold days, not something you would review for a day in the sun or the summer or spiring. But its definately tons of incense, ambery woody and warm spicy with a descent amount of frankincense, Cardamom, Patchouli and Vetiver. I Think Its a banger and thinking of refuling with another 100ml as it has no 200ml as yet. plus its on 30% Discount as i type
Its even more close farenheit parfum because of the sweetnes, i have both and made the comparison and yes, youd have to know both really well to tell apart, now i use triumph elixir cause its way harder to get farenheit parfum
Summer definitelty no, would be super cloying and strong. In cold weather daytime I think you can, but all year round need to go easy on the trigger. It is super strong.
I blind bought it due to the many positive review. I really like the smell, but I have no clue why, for me the performance, and I mean projection, siage and longevity, everything is weak to me. I sprayed even more then 10 sprays on the chest, neck, arms, and cloth. After two hours I smell it only on skin. Not in the air anymore. And neither my wife nor kids did.
I'd been checking a bunch of the online discount spots for this one, for a couple of weeks now, ever since every single one of the YT reviewers seemed to be unanimous as to how fantastic it is. Even as recently as yesterday, I checked 7, 8 different sites, all to no avail, nobody had it. I work nights, and, when I got off work this morning, I was going to order a couple of other ones from FBuy, but, just for shyts & giggles, I figured that I'd do a quick check of a couple sites, not expecting any success. Wouldn't you know it, first thing I opened FBuy, they had it, and, at a decent price, too ($74.86)?! So, I quickly added Bottled Absolu to my cart, and, so much look forward to receiving my Precieux I, Turathi Brown & Boss Bottled Absolu real soon!
Got it today (200ml) in India. It was an investment I made consciously. Well, all I can say as on the first day of use is that it feels like that cheap axe chocolate deodorant in the opening 😢. Am I heartbroken? No, not yet. Need to give it a proper wear on both skin and fabric to give a fair judgement.
Tested it and it's too smooth and too sweet for me. Has some faint similarities to Amouage Jubilation XXV, but Boss is way sweeter and lacks depth and smokiness. The price compares to niche parfums, so I expected to be surprised. My tester will be given away. Next!
It's all about choosing bottle colors like how people choose Gatorade flavors can't even tell you the names.. I like the blue or the red even the purple 😂
I tried this at the airport Duty-Free shop recently and I'm skipping this one. It smells GREAT, but it gives me Swiss Arabian Shaghaf Oud Azraq/Montale Honey Aoud vibes with small remnants of Gucci Intense Oud. I own these, so it would be redundant for me. I can see this selling really well, though! 🙌🏾
Yup, it’s my favourite for a long long time. I’ve had it a couple weeks and it’s a third down. I even wear it to the sauna as it fills the air so nicely. I’m getting another bottle for sure. Ps love your reviews.

Boss Bottled just keeps coming out with these new leveled up flankers
Just received my blind buy of this...I love it..its a dark rich scent that keeps on revealing levels..unreal
I really believe that the middle eastern fragrance market has rly put that needed pressure on the designer brands, incentivizing them to step up their game
In the far drydown, I get a mix of Boss Bottled Elixir and Layton. LOVE IT!!! This is a total fall and winter banger.
Carlton from boss.
I totally agree, a kind of darker, a bit smoky, less fresh layton with a hint of leather and licorice. Just amazing!
I just got my hands on it. Thanks to my brother, I think I'm becoming more confident about my blind buys.
Absolute beast! First time I used this I tried it on my arm in the store. Later that night I had a long hot soak in the bath; full body wash. After I got out and dried off I could still smell it on my arm!!!
Use soap in your bath next time. 👍😉
@@wayne2150 1 spray on the hand. Full wash with Soap then with shower gel. then hand soap. 1 coconut creme and 1 oil and i still smelled it on my hand, slightly but still there. it absolut sticky beast.
Just picked this up at Kohl’s/Sephora… I’m in love! It quickly became the favorite scent I own.
Boss has been killing it lately!
I got The scent elixir. Believe me it's crazy
Boss coming out with many bangers recently. Bottled Elixir, the scent elixir were worth buys.
After watching reviews, and reading on fragrantica, and testing it in the store i just had to! This smells amazing what a banger man! lasts 9hours on my skin, just perfect!
Just purchased it. Smells like a backwoods vanilla dipped cigar. Awesome stuff.
Boss is a slept on house for sure.
Tried this new Absolu on a tester card, I'll definitely pick it up at some point👍
I’ve been testing this one every day since the release in Europe, and was gonna be strong and say no. But … it’s not possible! It’s just insanely delicious!

Just smelled this. Its definitly has to be purchased.
Great review. This scent is incredible. It's a nice warm spice, semi-sweet, with a touch of smoke. It's hands down my fall/winter scent this year, along with Boss Elixir. Two great scents, Boss!
Is the leather really noticable? Not a fan of leather.
@@patrickmeijer2796noticeable id say yea but not heavy, I suggest sampling first
I bought it yesterday and wore it for a night out...14 hours later you could still smell it. Even after I took a shower there was a slight scent of it.
I picked up triumph elixir over this and I do not regret it!
For me It's between those 2 now. Which one of those do you think would be the better choice? I do have the boss bottled elixir already
@@Alritealritealrite me personally triumph elixir becauee it has a different scent profile than both bottled elixir and absolu, but it all comes down to personal preference and your collection.

Im really thinking of buying the bottled elixir until this absolu and i find this one better
How did boss become the best designer house over night lol. Bottled elixir. Bottled Absolu and the scent elixir are 3 of my fave designers in recent years
I can't find The Scent Elixir yet and I'm dying to check that out
What a fragrance, loved boss elixir and boss parfum and again love this absolu banger lol
This is AMAZING!
I really liked this one when I first smelled it I knew I was going to buy it
It’s a monster. 2 sprays might even be overkill for me, but it’s a terrific balance of everything. Not overly sweet, not overly spicy.

👀
Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed day
Macy's is running 20% off right now. 100ml for $119. Got one on the way!
Ash, got my boss bottled absolu, you know what it smells like, pure Havana from Thierry mugler, I love it …
Saw that this was out. I def plan on getting it, but after this video I will probably pick it up sooner rather than later.
Smelled this a few days ago along with Ralph’s club elixir. Both are amazing, on my to buy list for sure
Great review Ash
Bought it today. It’s unbelievable 👍🏼
Absolu is great, picked it up a while ago, has some similarities to Van Cleef & Arpels Orchid Leather - one i really like.
@@Frostulf orchid leather is amazing. That line up has some gems!
Currenty have boss bottled edp, I'm still waiting for my bottle of absolu to ship. Really stoked about this one.
He always loves the new scent that you haven’t bought yet better.
I just don't like it when someone tells me where to wear my fragrance, lol.
I agree with you on this one. Elixir is a great fragrance, but I prefer Absolu. I can’t decide between Absolu and Parfum.
I have this, And i have used 75% Of the Bottle, and that should indicate that im sold. I haven't tried other boss Bottled, but clearly this fragrance is for the fall, Winter & Date nights, cold days, not something you would review for a day in the sun or the summer or spiring.

Review starting at 4:10 is crazy
@@diegoleal1207 we like it
@@Alritealritealrite “We”? You got a mouse in your pocket?
No doubt Ash is arguably the best scents reviewer
To me triumph elixir reminded me of Fahrenheit parfum . Never had them side by side but spraying it in macys … it hit me immediately as Fahrenheit
Its even more close farenheit parfum because of the sweetnes, i have both and made the comparison and yes, youd have to know both really well to tell apart, now i use triumph elixir cause its way harder to get farenheit parfum
Im waiting for your review of Van Cleef Moonlight Rose so more people can experience it. Def my fav buy this year
Thank you Ash.
Can we use Boss bottled Absolue during day time office and summer?
Summer definitelty no, would be super cloying and strong. In cold weather daytime I think you can, but all year round need to go easy on the trigger. It is super strong.
This stuff is incredible
Bought this cologne today. Wish I went with intense with you or most wanted. 6/10
Spot on review, Ash. 😊
Hey Ash, can you do a review of the new Issey Miyake Le Sel d'Issey? :)
I blind bought it due to the many positive review. I really like the smell, but I have no clue why, for me the performance, and I mean projection, siage and longevity, everything is weak to me. I sprayed even more then 10 sprays on the chest, neck, arms, and cloth. After two hours I smell it only on skin. Not in the air anymore. And neither my wife nor kids did.
To me it’s just a much much smoother red tobacco. Almost exactly the same just way more polished.
Nice review and choice's love the video Gents Scents stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way
Reminds me of sharp version Parfums De Marly Carlisle
I really loved bottled night.
I'd been checking a bunch of the online discount spots for this one, for a couple of weeks now, ever since every single one of the YT reviewers seemed to be unanimous as to how fantastic it is. Even as recently as yesterday, I checked 7, 8 different sites, all to no avail, nobody had it.

So, I quickly added Bottled Absolu to my cart, and, so much look forward to receiving my Precieux I, Turathi Brown & Boss Bottled Absolu real soon!
I like the normal boss bottled edp I think the elixir is too spicy for me on the opening. So interested in how this one smells.
Can't wait to try this
Ash… a request to try Trussardi Paintings of Palazzo and get into some of the extraordinaire line from Van Cleef & Arpels….pretty please lol
That donkey is the new meme of the chanel😂
Did the Donkey dive into you😂😂
I tried this today at my local Macy's and feel like it's a Varvatos Dark Rebel clone.. not that it's a bad thing it was just strikingly similar
Reminds me of mancera’s red tobacco but better!
Ash, that donkey intro was random and hilarious, man. I love that you add in fun stuff like that.
Got it today (200ml) in India. It was an investment I made consciously. Well, all I can say as on the first day of use is that it feels like that cheap axe chocolate deodorant in the opening 😢. Am I heartbroken? No, not yet. Need to give it a proper wear on both skin and fabric to give a fair judgement.
As a forest lover, which one of the 3 are the best?
elixir and absolute which one is the best and stay long??
I smelt this one and this was so amazing
that's a Chris Collinsworth-level frame slide in..sick
"Now here's a Boss Bottled worth having in your collection."
Tried it today. Is it just me or does it smell close to PdM Layton/ Detour Noir ?
Thank you for the video.
This is better than Boss Bottled Elixir?
Best release of 2024! Boss Bottled Absolu is to die for 🔥 I immediately purchased a 200ml at discounter. Full price is definitely worth it, too.
I usually dont get desighners because of performance there gone in 2 hours with projection in hour .
Love that bottle though.. I got to try it out
Did you buy this or get sent it?
I smell similar to Carlisle PDM and some Layton PDM
Which one? scandal absolu or boss bottle absolu?!
Boss absolu or Armani Code EDP?
At Sephora, I was considered Code Le Parfum, u til I smelled this. Bought the Bottled Absolu.
@@carrolllaw i've bought boss bottled elixir in thr end.little more woody/spicy than absolu and better price
One of these smells strikingly similar to Bentley Man Intense. I think it was Triumph Elixir.
Ordered my bottle yesterday. Can't wait to get it in.
I prefer elixir
I really like it - Yeah! 👍
Stop messing around, Ash, and give us Victorian Tobacco 2.0 with Malul. And that Envy-like frag you've been working on too!🙏♥️
Hugo Boss is on a HEATER🔥Elixir, The Scent Elixir, Triumph and now Absolu
Which one should I get elixir or absolu
🙄
How’s elixir compared to absolu (Canada winters)
boss bottled absolu on fragbuy 92 for 100ml 66 for 50ml
Which one is better BB Absolu or Triumph?
absolutely absolu
how is the performance compared to Detour Noir?
They’re completely different fragrances but they’re strong performers
Tested it and it's too smooth and too sweet for me. Has some faint similarities to Amouage Jubilation XXV, but Boss is way sweeter and lacks depth and smokiness. The price compares to niche parfums, so I expected to be surprised. My tester will be given away. Next!
Welp, I bought it. Let's give it a try.
I have an unfortunate feeling this will still fly under the radar for a lot of people as boss bottled seems to do
I sampled it last week and to be honest to my nose it just smells like Bottled Elixir with some added leather which goes away after an hour.
They drop new stuff every week?
For fall and winter or summer fregnance?
Such a dumb question
Boss really ran out of names for their fragrances. Absolute? Absolu? Really?
Next it'll be Boss Bottled Abso, then just Ab, can't fault their logic...
It’s okay. Absolute doesn’t exist anymore anyway.
Boss Bottled Definitely
@@flightgravity7483 oh but Boss The Scent Absolute exists.
It's all about choosing bottle colors like how people choose Gatorade flavors can't even tell you the names.. I like the blue or the red even the purple 😂
I tried this at the airport Duty-Free shop recently and I'm skipping this one. It smells GREAT, but it gives me Swiss Arabian Shaghaf Oud Azraq/Montale Honey Aoud vibes with small remnants of Gucci Intense Oud. I own these, so it would be redundant for me.

This or hugo boss the scent elixr parfum intense? please i need honest opinions
🙄
The cap is sleek!
Hugo boss elixir is it stay longer??
Again, learn english
please someone, is there any difference between le male le parfum made in france and made in spain?
I smelled this scent at the airport in Dubai a week ago. It's phenomenal. I'll definitely get it.
Yup, it’s my favourite for a long long time. I’ve had it a couple weeks and it’s a third down. I even wear it to the sauna as it fills the air so nicely. I’m getting another bottle for sure. Ps love your reviews.
its a cleaner version of Shaghaf Oud Azraq in the far drydown
Wow!!! Awesome
122euros for that or 92 euros for emporio armani stronger with you tobacco???
It's different, boss better, I got both of them
@cookiethumper8709 thank you!
