Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Boss Bottled Intense EDP
This one's a divisive throwback. Some reckon it's a nostalgic, sensual apple pie; others find it a synthetic, bubblegum-sweet mess. Either way, it's a stronger take on a classic, if you can find it.
Favourite
Our Verdict - B Bottled - 209 EDP
No. 209 hits the same apple-cinnamon-woods shape that made Boss Bottled a signature office scent, but it's a shallower, faster-fading version that loses the original's smooth, all-day sandalwood-vanilla presence within a couple of hours.
