Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Boss In Motion Black EDT
A largely inoffensive, subtly citrusy scent, Hugo Boss In Motion Black promises a fresh spark but delivers an underwhelming, fleeting whisper. It's a mild crowd-pleaser that struggles to make an impression and is best as a personal scent.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Arsene Lupin Dandy EDP
A modern classic from Jean-Paul Guerlain, Dandy's unique blend of wood and spice with a floral twist has cemented its place in the hearts of many, despite its divisive interpretation across the community. Prepare for a rich, sophisticated experience.

Season and Occasion Fit

Boss In Motion Black

Seasons

Best For:
Spring
Also Works:
Autumn

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its low projection and weak longevity make it suitable for close-contact situations like the office or casual wear, where it won't overpower. Its fresh and subtle nature also lends itself well to sport, but it lacks the presence for dates or formal events.

Arsene Lupin Dandy

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn
Also Works:
Spring Summer Winter

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office

Its moderate sillage and strong longevity make it suitable for a date or formal event, where its refined character can shine without overwhelming. It's a bit too distinguished for casual wear and the performance would be unsuitable for sport, while it could work for the office if applied sparingly.
