G. Bellini X-Bolt - Fragrance twin?

Because I liked Boss Bottled very much in former times and here in the forum the Lidl scent was called as scent twin, I got myself once G. Bellini X-Bolt. In the first few seconds it actually smells like Boss Bottled. It flies away very quickly. What remains for me is a very unpleasant, cheap, chemical smell that I cannot determine. So it has nothing to do with the natural ingredients of Boss Bottled. Especially since the scent is hardly perceptible after half an hour. Absolutely no scent twinning for me. In my opinion this X-Bolt is not worth 5 Euro

Very Good Boss Bottled Clone

This smells very close to Boss Bottled. It has moderate projection and average longevity of about 6 hours. €4 for 50ml, great value. Appears sporadically in Lidl so buy a couple when you can!

You know what? They smell alike!

Yesterday I went to LIDL and blindly bought my X-Bolt bottle, given that I never tested Boss Bottled and I was really curious to know what the smell was. As I left the shop, I sprayed it over my hand... I immediately fell in love with it, definitely. I allowed it some time to melt with my skin and notes of crisp green apple, spicy cinnamon, and sweet vanilla started flooding my nose.

Well, this evening I entered Sephora shop and tested Boss Bottled. Surprise, surprise... they smell alike! Not yet convinced about that, once I reached home I sprayed X-Bolt on the other hand and... I am not able to find a difference between the two. Trust me, X-Bolt is as good as Boss Bottled, I just spent 3.99 euro rather than 49 euro.

My last take on this... it is clearly apparent that this scent was produced for the purpose of daytime wear. Overall, the fragrance is clean and sweet from top to bottom. I detected faint traces of vanilla after the quick burst of apple began to settle down, blended with spicy cinnamon... a kind of like American apple pie!

Extremely light, the X-Bolt is great for an office environment because the scent is fairly subtle. So subtle in fact, a gentleman might forget he is wearing it. The longevity is moderate; possible lasting a conventional workday, but not much longer thereafter. The sillage stays around your arms. To me this is wearable during the cool and cold season, autumn seems to be a perfect time.
