Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Boss Alive Intense
This one's a divisive pick, love it or hate it. Many find it cheap and childish, but others praise its natural raspberry and addictive amber base, seeing it as quite a unique scent that’s far from generic. Best to try before you buy, as opinions range wildly.
Statement
Our Verdict - Sweet Dates
This one's a mixed bag, with some finding an affordable, subtly sweet resinous scent, while others get nothing but burnt rubber. At this price point, it's worth a punt, but definitely test it on your skin first - don't say we didn't warn you.

Season and Occasion Fit

Boss Alive Intense

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its strong fruity and sweet accords, coupled with reports of good longevity and sillage, make it potentially overwhelming for an office environment. However, these characteristics lend themselves well to casual outings and dates, where its presence can be appreciated. It's too bold and sweet for formal events or sports.

Sweet Dates

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its prominent sweet, woody, and balsamic accords make it quite potent and perhaps a bit much for the office. It leans heavily towards date nights and casual autumn/winter wear where its warmth can truly shine.
