Boss The Scent For Her

I received a bottle of this for Christmas from my brother and his girlfriend and I absolutely love it! (Not really a surprise that I would because my brother knows my taste in perfumes and his girlfriend has great taste in fragrance too, so they were bound to get me something I'd really like!) It came at just the right time as I was back in one of my 'less intense' perfume phases, wearing Mon Guerlain for most of December. This doesn't smell like Mon Guerlain, but if you like that sort of fragrance, then you might want to give this scent a try. It's a feminine yet fun smell that lifts the mood. Way back in the 90's, like all teenagers I was obsesses with the perfumes from 'The Body Shop' and their peach smell was a firm favourite. But whilst TBS peach was a harsher, tangier, full on 90's bomb, this is far more delicate and grown up. It would still be equally as appropriate for a teenager as it would a more mature woman (I'm 41) but if you loved the old peach fragrance from TBS, you'll probably really like this much more subtle and classier modern take on the peach note. It opens with a sweet peach note, but there's also a creamy note in there too like cashmere and it feels like being wrapped up in an ivory cashmere scarf. Wearing it in winter so far, the colder temperature brings out a sparkling feel to the fragrance, so I'm interested to see how it will wear in summer. I'm guessing the fruity note will develop a little more as the temperature rises. For me it's one of those fragrances that constantly has me wanting to sniff my own wrists to get another little hit of the scent; it's very positive and happy feeling. Not being a perfume snob, I'm just as happy with something from Hugo Boss as I am anything from a more boutique fragrance house (I've loved Deep Red ever since it was first released and always will) if the scent sparks joy in me. This perfume definitely does that. I've received a couple of compliments since wearing it out and about and the other half really likes it on me. This is a perfume that I'll definitely use up and purchase again for myself once it runs out, for those days when I'm really looking for a lighter, fresher yet comfy scent that brings a smile a to my face and makes me feel a little more girly.

This is my favourite scent ever, like I read the notes on it in a magazine years ago when it was being launched and asked for it for my birthday as my first perfume, my sister got this voucher instead where you got 6 testers and you could use the voucher to get the full size of one of them and this was one of the perfumes and I tried all 6 and this was still my favourite so I got it. I'm still obsessed with the scent from when I was 16 until now, I could wear this in any season, day or night, any occasion without feeling out of place, and I feel like it suits my personality and aesthetic so perfectly... BUT WHY DOES THE SCENT DISAPPEAR IN 5 MINUTES?????? This is genuinely the biggest heartbreak because it's literally perfect to me in every single way except for the fact that it apparently doesn't feel the same way about me. It tells me it's just running to get some milk and then never comes back and i'm left here wondering if it's me? Am I the problem? I promise i'll be better, just come back...

This is extremely nice! I just got a spray of this at my local chemist where it was sitting on the counter, and am very pleasantly surprised. I was a little bit nervous because I had high hopes for Hugo Boss's "The Scent Private Accord for Her" scent, and - despite it's typically outstanding note combination - it smells absolutely horrible on me (too sharp, in-your-face; and dries down very bitter). This opens very fruity sweet! The peach and freesia combination is POWERFUL! Very easy to overwhelm if you're not careful The middle notes soon emerge and are lovely - must be that osmanthus; kinda apricoty, but light with gentle florals. The cacao dry-down really does provide a deeper, more complex, rich tone to it. Again, not in-your-face, but pleasant. A noticeably layered perfume. :) Am tempted to go back and buy a small bottle based on one spray alone! *** Kitty rating: 8/10. Hubby rating: 7.5-8/10 (MORE THAN 7, PEOPLE!) ~Compliment Counter~: 1 compliment 😁

Great peach fragrance. Pretty linear IMO. This is a great layering addition. I later with Geneva Chocolate from be layered (another great layering frag) and I get very close to the scent private accord but peach instead of mandarin. Great basic office/gym frag, crowd pleaser. But if youre someone who really doesn’t like basic I still think you could later this with other frags. Dior addict with the peach and spices, light blue intense, with any coconut based scent would make it fruity tropical, ect. I think basics scent sometimes get overlooked, understandably, but if you’ve got the nose for curiosity there are some ‘basics’ that go a long way for making a truly unique blend all your own. There’s a lot to be said for a frag that is a good all around for layering and this one is one of them.

This is my signature everyday fragrance. Peach is my absolute favourite scent and I love the strength of the note in this perfume. I also adore the soft cocoa base and the very light, floaty florals creamily mixed in. It is a lovely fruity floral gourmand, very light and sweet - but not too sickly. Longevity isn't the best on my skin but for an everyday perfume I often reapply, I personally don't mind because I love the scent so much. Am looking forward to trying out the intense version. I often get compliments while wearing this fragrance so perhaps others can smell it better on me than I can. It's very pleasant and inoffensive, and my boyfriend likes it as much as I do.
