Madagascar vanilla, plum, cinnamon, apple and black currant give Boss Alive Eau de Parfum a round, fruited opening with real spice behind it, cleaner in style than most from Hugo Boss. Jasmine sambac and thyme give the heart a green, aromatic lift so it never gets too sweet. The base moves into sandalwood, cedar and olive tree, dry and woody, with a soft powdery finish. Women after a spiced, fruity scent that still reads office-clean tend to reach for it. Voters keep it for autumn, worn mostly during the day and in the office, which makes it a natural choice for work. Most wearers vote its longevity moderate, and most call the sillage moderate too, present without taking over a room. A 3ml decant is enough to wear through a working week and see how it settles on you.

The community verdict
Most get moderate wear and projection from Boss Alive Eau de Parfum, though a sizeable group reports long-lasting wear. Plum, cinnamon and vanilla open, followed by jasmine in the heart and sandalwood in the base. Its warm, fruity character suits autumn days; spring and the office work too.
