Eden Perfumes No.226 B Bottled is an Eau de Parfum. No.226 B Bottled opens with Bergamot, Apple, and Plum, settles into a heart of Mahogany and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Vanilla. Eden Perfumes's No.226 B Bottled carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

No.226 captures Boss Bottled's signature apple-and-cinnamon opening reasonably well, but the drydown is thinner and less resinous than the original's woody-amber base, landing it closer to a casual daily wear than a true boardroom power scent.

About

Eden's No.226 opens with a crisp blend of apple, bergamot and plum that instantly nods to Hugo Boss Boss Bottled's most recognisable feature, that fresh-fruit top note that feels instantly put-together. Rich cinnamon and mahogany take over through the heart, adding warmth and a touch of spice that keeps the composition feeling grown-up rather than sweet. The base is where it settles into sandalwood, vanilla and vetiver, giving an easy, comfortable woody finish that lingers just enough to make an impression without being overpowering. It's a versatile aftershave built for year-round wear, though the fresh apple and citrus opening leans it slightly toward warmer months while the cinnamon-vanilla base gives it enough depth for winter too. Longevity is moderate for an aftershave concentration, holding a soft skin-scent presence through a few hours. For anyone who likes Boss Bottled's confident, understated character but wants a cheaper daily option, this is a solid everyday alternative.
