{"product_id":"hugo-boss-the-scent-for-him-elixir-eau-de-parfum-50ml","title":"The Scent for Him Elixir Eau de Parfum 50ml","description":"\u003cp\u003eNot everybody gets on with dry spice, and Hugo Boss The Scent for Him Elixir Eau de Parfum 50ml is a sensible amount to find out with. It opens with pimento, the spice sold in kitchens as allspice, and it is hot and dry in a peppery way rather than sweet. Lavandin sits with it, a hard camphorous herb that smells of the growing plant rather than of anything soapy, and between them the first few minutes are genuinely austere. Sandalwood is the base and the reward, creamy and smooth with a faint milkiness, and once it rises the spice reads as seasoning rather than as the dish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere are three parts to it and nothing else, with no heart recorded at all between the spice and the wood, which gives the composition a certain honesty. You can follow every part of it, and what you smell in the first minute tells you whether the rest will suit you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNelly Hachem-Ruiz composed it for a 2024 release. At this concentration it has a long and quiet life on skin, close to the body after the opening, so it is wearable at a desk and in company where something louder would not be. It is sold to men, and it suits anyone who prefers dry spice to sweetness: autumn, winter, evenings, and the sort of clothes that have a collar. At 50ml it is a sensible trial of an unusual scent, and the bottle is small enough to travel with. Anyone who already owns the 100ml will find nothing new here beyond the convenience of a bottle that fits a coat pocket.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA German tailoring house dating from 1924 and still based in Metzingen, Hugo Boss entered fragrance relatively late, in 1984, and has only ever run it through licensees. It marked a hundred years of trading in 2024.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hugo Boss","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55353488933191,"sku":"ENG202371","price":106.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/5049\/1463\/files\/boss-the-scent-elixir_88fb4056-4280-4f57-84c1-1222af88d5a8.jpg?v=1794494107","url":"https:\/\/thescentvault.ie\/products\/hugo-boss-the-scent-for-him-elixir-eau-de-parfum-50ml","provider":"The Scent Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
