Boss The Scent Private Accord for Her

If you're about to buy this please read this first. so this perfume smells AMAZING! especially few minutes after the sprays, and as for something like the first one or two hours (at least for me). The problem - THE LONGEVITY THE THE MOST POOR LONGEVITY I'VE EVER TRIED! At first the sillage is really good, you can really smell it all over you (of course if you dont like orangy-choclaty kind of smells do not get near to this one). After two hours you litteraly need to press your nose to your wrest to smell this, you can't even call it a skin scent, it's that horrible. but still, the smell is amazing. To my opinion, it could have being tottally concidered to be a unisex perfume, I dont know why hugo boss made this a female scent, but dont let it scare you if you're a female and looking for something feminine, its really so sexy, and if you're wearing something sexy with it people will treat you like a choclate bar. Also men, I will go crazy if I'd sit next to a man smelling like this, if we're forgetting about the poor longevity and sillage and talking only about the smell, this is a totally safe buy for guys. back to the problem - the longevity. If you do want this perfume because of the smell - you can just use it as for short meetings (I actually think it could be really cool to go with it on work meetings, its sexy but in a super sophisticated way), over spray it, grub it with you in your hand bag and give it more sprays every few hours while going to the toilette (the bottle is kinda small and you can easly take it with you), layer it with other choclatycoffeecocoa perfumes (like prada candy night, angel muse, black opium and such) - so there are some things you can do to use it. If you don't have time to spray during the daynight, I wouldnt buy it because it would be a big disappointment and a waste of money. there are other perfumes out there that blends orangy-smells with choclate, not a lot but there are (there is the new "yes I am delicious" perfume that has just being released - its choclate with orange blossom, im not sure if its the same but I know the "yes I am" range got some really good longevity and their price is also really good).

Reviewing for 3 chocolate fragrances below. Hugo Boss Private Accord First spray smells like semi sweet dark chocolate and oranges like other reviewers have mentioned. I wasn't a fan of osmanthus in Narcisco Rodriguez for her, but it works beautifully with the notes here for me. As it starts to dry down, it turns more into a milk chocolate. It smells sweet, feminine, and slightly fresh. I would wear this fragrance on a date or night out for sure because it's not as "warm and cozy" as the other chocolate fragrances I'm reviewing below. For a chocolate fragrance, I love this. I am 32 years old and prefer feminine fragrances. This scent is a happy medium for me. It's not "too mature" and it's not "too juvenile". The orange and osmanthus gives this chocolate scent a lil more depth, but it's not bizzare or intriguing. It's more on the safe side. Lasting power isn't that great tbh. However, I'll still be buying this. Clinique Cocoa & Cashmere First spray smells exactly like rubbing alcohol and then a warm, cottony, musky, milk chocolate comes through. It stays pretty linear throughout the whole wear. Lasting power is not as great either like HB Private Accord. I could probably wear this on a date night too. However, it gives me more of a netflix and chill vibe or snuggling up to a blanket by myself watching chick flix and eating ice cream. :P Not bad, I like it and am considering buying it. I want all of my linens to smell like this, haha. Edit: I prefer this dry down over the HB Private Accord, it's coming off more "optimistic" and younger. Def buying this. Al Rehab - Choco Musk Not a fan. This is extremely too sweet for my taste. For me, it smells like milk chocolate and incense. I don't mind incense, myrrh, or resinous notes as I love them in other fragrances I own. But the contrast of these notes in Choco Musk just doesn't work for me here as it's linear - like my nose picks up strong incense throughout the whole wear. This lasting power is a beast. It has lasted on my cardigan for 4 days straight.

Another discontinued perfume I recently hunted down a new bottle and added to my collection. At first look at the notes it’s gourmand but it’s nothing like that after the first 2 minutes. If you’ve ever had osmanthus tea before, you would immediately recognize the osmanthus floral note. Ok initial spray, I get citrus, cacao. Very captivating. This is literally what you smell if you sniff the nozzle after spraying. It then starts to fade and lets the osmanthus through. Dry down happens so fast (meaning top notes disappears before you get the 10th sniff in). Then I am left with a faint nice osmanthus & tonka (woody creamy vanilla) light skin scent. So yes, reviews saying this has no longevity, fades extremely fast, beautiful but becomes a skin scent, losing the citrus and chocolate note shortly after spraying. All these comments are absolutely accurate. It’s an oriental floral tea by the 5 min mark. There is some sweetness to it, very pleasant and mild. Despite how poor performing this scent is, it’s the kind of scent at first sniff I know I’ll be keeping this. Expect this as a scent you want to wear close to yourself, not to project or for anyone. Definitely not offensive. This is a blind buy for me. No regrets. I love this!

I love this perfume! As another review mentioned this does actually smell like palmer's cocoa butter with some added mandarin but it still smells lovely to me! When I purchased this i expected to literally smell chocolate and orange but it's more like you open up one of those candy oranges they sell around the holidays. Yes it is a gourmand scent but it still smells like a hugo scent of that makes sense. This scent is a juicy orange being peeled next to a mocha latte by someone wearing hugo perfume (hope that gives a better description). I would say this is a medium dark fragrance, not dark or deep like carolina herrera but it does have some depth and probably most appreciated during cooler weather. I own this and the scent absolute and they're both divine. I feel so confident, sexy and delicious when I wear them even if people can hardly smell me. Both of them do turn into a skin Scent after an hour so I recommend spraying on clothes. I would say this is a safe blind buy for someone who appreciates unique scents and likes gourmand fragrances. I strongly dislike celebrity perfumes but this gives me similar vibes to Brittany Spears Private show although they smell nothing alike.

I think i should test again all perfumes i wasnt impressed with in the past, because so many perfumes i love now, were not a love at the first sniff. I liked this one. But it wasnt a "wow". Also the longevity was so bad, that i kind of promised myself i would never buy something like that. Because, for me, one of the most important things about the perfumes is the performance. But when i saw it yesterday in the store for half a price, i decided to give it a try even tho i already knew, i was going to be annoyed with the longevity. BUT! you guys.. first of all, it smells so delicious. Exactly like chocolate and mandarin. I spray mainly on my clothes and i could still smell it on my t-shirt this morning. On the skin, indeed, it lasts only for a few minutes. So, if you wanna buy this one, but hesitate because of its poor longevity, i recommend overspraying on your clothes. Also, i really like the bottle and the cap that - ulike caps on some other perfumes - stays on. Not sure why is it so hard to make a good perfume cap. And we are not talking about cheap perfumes, but about brands like Mugler or Guerlain.
