Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Boss Bottled Tonic EDT
Bracing citrus and crisp ginger give Boss Bottled Tonic a vibrant, sporty twist on the classic Bottled DNA. Impeccably safe and office-friendly, but fleeting and linear. For men who want to feel sharp and refreshed, not daring.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Terre D' Herm. - 481 EDP
No. 481 nods to Hermes Terre d'Hermes' earthy citrus-vetiver signature, but the mineral, flinty depth that defines the original is largely absent, leaving a simpler grapefruit-and-vetiver accord that fades faster.
