Boss Number One
What Boss Number One smells like
Sharp bitter herbs and honeyed tobacco clash over moss, evoking disciplined vintage authority, for the boardroom commander.

A freshly lit cigar in a wood-paneled room · The scent of a vintage leather briefcase · A well-maintained barbershop after closing · Rain-dampened oakmoss on a forest floor · The metallic tang of ambition · A hint of a clean urinal cake in a luxurious restroom
