Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Boss Alive Eau de Toilette
A pleasant, inoffensive fruity-floral that's more "barely alive" than its name suggests. Whilst some find it beautiful and confidently feminine, many report it lacks impact and is entirely forgettable, even smelling synthetic. It's best thought of as a light, everyday fragrance that's unlikely to wow.

Our Verdict - Un Matin d'Orage Eau de Parfum
A divisive white floral that some adore for its photorealistic gardenia and 'after-the-rain' vibe, while others recoil from what they perceive as rotten florals or an overpowering ginger note. Definitely one to try before you buy.

Office Casual Sport

Given its light projection and fresh, fruity-floral character, this EDT is well-suited for office and casual wear where it won't overwhelm.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal
