Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper grown-up scent, divisive for its mature character and hit-or-miss performance. It's often praised as a classic and unique offering from Boss, but some find it dated or simply too fleeting to matter. A proper 'love it or leave it' juice.
A divisive classic that splits opinion between masterful, classy sophistication and 'old man' datedness. Some find it a timeless, versatile masterpiece, while others are put off by its traditional, powdery nature or performance issues in newer formulations.
