How is it calculated?

These markers are an editorial estimate calculated automatically from the perfume's real accords and their intensity, following the classic reading of scent families (hesperidics and aromatics shine in summer and at the office, ambers and gourmands in winter and in the evening…). They do not come from user votes and do not replace a test on skin.

Why choose one… or the other?

Why choose Boss Bottled

  • It costs less: from €39.01, while the other starts at €68.95.
  • It brings what the other lacks — cinnamon, sandalwood, bergamot.
  • More track record: launched in 1998, it has been worn for 28 years.

Why choose Boss Bottled Tonic

  • Facets Boss Bottled does not have: lavender, ginger, grapefruit.
  • More recent creation (2018, against 1998).
  • Notes that are uncommon with us (apple, ginger): the less conventional of the two.
  • Expect €68.95 at the very least, more than its rival.

The verdict
