In my wardrobe, I have items from two cool brands — Hugo Boss and Calvin Klein. Of course, I have their perfumes, underwear, and even watches in my collection.
Both brands offer various product categories for women, men, and kids: clothing, footwear, perfume, underwear, accessories.
Calvin Klein’s prices are more flexible. I once bought thongs from them for $8 on sale; now the minimum price is $15. It’s very convenient to buy sets of 3 or 7 pieces. The last time I ordered a set of 7 cotton thongs (Calvin Klein 1996) with a 30% off discount, the price after the discount was $48. So, each pair cost me $6.85. Of course, they also have more expensive options.
At Hugo Boss, a pair of briefs starts at $20 and up, but you might find some for $15 if you’re lucky with a discount. However, you can buy a set of underwear for almost the same price as Calvin Klein for $45, but… the set only includes 3 pieces.
Perfumes from these brands cost about the same, but Hugo Boss is a bit more expensive.
Calvin Klein’s perfumes go up to $120. My favorite is Eternity Eau de Parfum Intense, which I got for $87 for 50 ml. The blend of jasmine with rose is magnificent. A beautiful fragrance!
Some Hugo Boss perfume lines go up to $325. But they also have perfumes in the mid-price range up to $100.
But suits are a different story. Calvin Klein’s are cheaper, ranging from $100 to $300. Hugo Boss asks for $795 and up for their suits, but you can snag one for almost half price, around $400, during a sale.
That’s what I did during the discount period, and we bought a stunning silver suit for my husband for our niece’s wedding. The material is luxurious, it fits him beautifully and fashionably. Tapered pants, a two-button jacket, and stretchy material. Amazing slim-fit suits! But don’t forget about the additional estimated tax you need to add to the price: we paid an extra $42!
However, there was a problem with delivery. We ordered the suit online. Hugo Boss offers free standard UPS Ground shipping, and if you’re not in a hurry, this option should suit you.
They promised to deliver within 3-7 business days, and we had two weeks until the niece’s wedding. The suit arrived in 12 days, just a couple of days before the event. Overall, the suit is excellent, but it was quite nerve-wracking waiting for the package.
You could opt for their express delivery for $15 or even Next Day Shipping for $30, but I’m not sure if the package would have arrived any faster. Returns can be made within 60 days, provided the item is new and with tags. The main plus is their cool items for every taste. The downside is that the service can be disappointing.
I also ordered packages from Calvin Klein using Standard Ground, but it costs $9.95. They promise to deliver within 6 days, but it usually takes about 10. You can choose the Second Day option for $24 or Overnight service for $35. Returns are accepted within 45 days.
Calvin Klein offers more affordable prices, while Hugo Boss is known for its high quality. Delivery delays can occur with both.
For underwear and perfume, head to Calvin Klein; for suits and watches, go to Hugo Boss 😉
