Undervalued...

Now a few words about Boss in Motion Eau de Toilette
My review refers to the version in the glass bottle, not the old ball.
I bought it a few months ago because it was available for a bargain price and my collection was still relatively small at the time. Then it disappeared into the cupboard unnoticed. Winter came and other fragrances were worn. New, supposedly better fragrances moved in and were given preference. Today was the day and it was worn for the first time. So I diligently sprayed it on my neck and wrists. Man, the little one is not bad at all. Starts fresh and fruity and orangey and then changes to creamy and orangey. The fragrance pyramid doesn't work for me or I can't smell it. There is a certain synthetic quality, but it is not distracting. The creamy orangy note stays with me until the end. Overall, I find it very linear in its progression. Certainly not for extravagant noses that want to celebrate and pick apart a fragrance in every detail. It could be something for people who feel comfortable with a creamy, warm orange fragrance. I find the longevity and sillage average. At a price of 25€/100ml, you can't complain. As I now want to reduce my collection bit by bit, fragrances have to go. One thing is certain, this one can stay. More expensive, higher-rated fragrances are more likely to move out.
I can recommend it to anyone who doesn't just want niche or extravagant fragrances. For me, one of my P/L winners.

If I had to choose among many bosses, I'd take this one!

I never wanted to be the Boss, but I grew up olfactorically with Hugo Boss, when I first adorned myself with the fragrances of the big wide world and somehow also dealt with. With Calvin Klein, Wolfgang Joop, Jil Sander, Gianni Versace, Thierry Mugler, Karl Lagerfeld and some others of course. One(s) already wore supposedly big names at the beginning/middle of their 20s, even if they were still so slouchy ... at least I was! so I at least! ;-)

From any niche one had not yet a plan, at least not fragrance-wise. But Adidas, Diesel, Lacoste or Aigner it should now also not exactly be. I already went to Douglas and not to Rossmann to supply me with fragrance water! :-) In any case, fragrances from Boss were somehow hip at the time and are now at least in terms of ratings here a "niche existence"! ;-)

Boss Bottled, Hugo, Elements, Soul, Energise, Dark Blue and In Motion were actually once en vogue, although I've already got nothing from the whole flankers and would like to get nothing more. The Scent was the last new fragrance I was "allowed" to experience in a sample and found it awful below the top note. Probably this is due to the 7-second attention span known from the Internet! ;-)

Now I'm a lot older, but the memory of many a Boss remains. For this one, which also has almost 20 years on the hump, it is worth to break a lance. Because we find here - in contrast to Boss Orange by the way! - a finely spicy orange that is harmoniously integrated into a woody-fresh basic mood. I perceive a harmony and coherence, which almost all other fragrances of the brand (meanwhile) is missing.

In this respect, In Motion stands out for me refreshingly from the EDT mainstream, which seems to know only one direction: the one with the synthetic-sweet hammer! Now In Motion is also not my "Next Top Model", but - even if the bottle does not seem so - one of the most elegant and most natural-looking fresh fragrances of the mainstreamers of yore, which are still produced today. As long as it's still around, it's definitely worth grabbing towards summer .... in my opinion!

Standing not very strong

The best thing it has is design. I really like it, it's very compact,doesn't take lot of space, easy to care with yourself even in pocket. The scent is average, nothing special and it didn't surprise me at all,very forgetable. It took about 1hour to faid away and I had to apply again. I wouldn't recommend to buy it because at this price point it doesn't worth money.

Reminiscences of banking training

Sometimes you associate perfumes with certain people, think back to some carefree times and know for sure that this time and also this time with this person is long gone and will never return. That's often a pity, but sometimes people also stand for eras, where you say: I'm glad to have made your acquaintance, but now we both move on for the better.

The Boss ball is a reminder of an old trainee colleague who moved from Saxony to Krefeld on the Lower Rhine especially for the training at Commerzbank. This was probably also due to his girlfriend, who - as soon as he was here - was soon a thing of the past. In any case, he was like a colourful dog because of his sometimes quirky and charming nature. I remember we were sitting in the kebab shop, the four of us, and he jumps up and says: "I have to go, I have to cut the sausage in my potato salad! Or where he was drunk and his heart was filled with lovesickness trying to climb up a traffic light to remove the lights. Didn't work but he was busy for a long time
Anyway, he used two perfumes. Boss Bottled and this bullet here. Was his signature somewhere. I bought this ball once and noticed that not everyone smells the same, respectively you can find fragrances on others, but not on yourself. In fact, I always felt as if I had a flu-like infection when I applied it.
In the aftermath, I guess all that didn't quite fit, the mix. Orange is clearly noticeable, as are the spices. My nose must have been confused that the spices don't follow a clear line. Nutmeg ok, pepper ok but cinnamon and cardamom pure? I don't know. Somehow the scent also smelled like an orange into which cloves had been skewered. The base, I absolutely don't remember it, the smell was penetratingly intense at the beginning. Then it was abruptly completely over. Even if I don't want to miss these memories, the fragrance is not so great in the end, objectively speaking.
I think the scent wanted big things, wanted to be somebody. Just like my colleague always wanted to be. Whether he succeeded, I don't know. But I wish it to him and I will think back to it when I smell the scent somewhere
