What do reviewers say about Boss Bottled and AB Silver?
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 opening is the whole point, fruity, bold, a little reckless. Then it softens into something personal. That shift is what separates this from dozens of similar scents.AB Silver
