Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Boss Alive
Boss Alive is a 'love-it-or-hate-it' scent; some find it a gorgeous fruity-woody vanilla, others smell cheap aftershave or air freshener. It delivers a punchy dose of spiced fruit, but be warned, the sillage and longevity are divisive.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Coccobello
This one is a divisive holiday-in-a-bottle scent, loved by some for its realistic green coconut and reviled by others for smelling like everything from bug spray to curry or even body odour. It’s either a fresh, natural escape or a chemical disaster depending on your skin and your nose.

Season and Occasion Fit

Boss Alive

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its moderate sillage and versatile blend of sweet, spicy, and woody notes make it suitable for casual wear and even office settings if applied lightly. For dates, the warm vanilla and spice can be quite appealing, though for formal events, it might be perceived as too playful. While some reviewers noted wearing it to the gym, its warm and spicy nature makes it less ideal for sport.

Coccobello

Seasons

Best For:
Summer

A summer scent - airy and clear, designed for hot weather.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its lighter projection and fresh, natural profile make it perfect for casual or sport wear, especially on warm days. However, given its skin-scent performance for many, it might be too subtle for a formal occasion and too polarising for some office environments.
