What do reviewers say about Boss Bottled and Le Male Summer 2011?
It's been the baseline for 'masculine done right' since 1998, and for good reason. Fruity-sweet without being juvenile, warm without being heavy. The kind of scent that earns the word 'reliable' like.Boss Bottled
The mint gives it that cool front, but the vanilla is running the show underneath. This is Le Male DNA without the bravado, just the part people actually want. Outlasts a full workday on most.Le Male Summer 2011
