Hugo Boss The Collection Elegant Vetiver is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Sophie Labbé. The Collection Elegant Vetiver opens with Pistachio and Juniper, settles into a heart of Vetiver, and dries down to a base of Labdanum and Cashmeran. Hugo Boss's The Collection Elegant Vetiver carries an Acquired verdict, an aromatic-led wear.

Boss's Elegant Vetiver is a divisive one. Fans call it pure class, a creamy, sophisticated take on vetiver. Detractors complain it's too sweet, not enough vetiver for the name, and some find the opening harsh. Definitely one to try before you buy a full bottle.

About

Opens with a distinctive pistachio sweetness combined with a fresh, sharp burst of juniper. This quickly mellows, giving way to a smooth, velvety vetiver heart, balanced by the plush warmth of cashmeran. The dry down is a refined mix of woody-amber, with labdanum adding a sophisticated, lasting depth.
