Hugo Woman Eau de Parfum

Far from generic or ordinary, this doesn't smell anything like any other releases of the 2010's either which is refreshing, I've not smelt the original Hugo Woman with the red band on the cap so I cannot comment on the similarities/differences. Hugo Woman sits in a few scent categories for me; young/sporty, boss-like and fresh. It does this so seamlessly and perfectly that its quite a versatile, ageless scent, anyone from their teens upwards can easily pull this off, its easy to wear casually, to the office, but not so casual that you couldn't wear it to a meeting or any important events. The scent itself smells fruity but not in the typical juvinile way, boysenberry adds tart juiciness and the madarin and tea notes give some bright freshness and help to keep this airy and steer the boysenberry away from being thick and jammy, jasmine gives a light floral edge and the grass and cedar notes give it some full body during the dry down and I agree with the discription about the new Hugo Woman having an uncovenvtional boyish twist, I think the cedar and grass as well as the tea add a slightly masculine freshness to this. I cant smell any plum, iris or sandalwood however. Longevity is excellent lasting 7 hours from 3 sprays and the silage is moderate. I'm not too sure weather this suits my style or personality these days however, but I really do love and appriciate how it smells and that its something genuinely different, I also see this is often on offer for quite reasonable prices, but I am concerned that Hugo Boss may possibly be discontinuing this one and I really hope they dont, its a refreshing take on the typical fruity floral. Like I said in my Dior Pure Poison review; sexy white button down and jeans, in a bottle.

How is it that decades can give off a scent? For my prime time 90’s babies out there...this shared the stage in the era of Tommy Girl, Perry Ellis 360, Hugo Red, Gucci Rush, Kenneth Cole reaction... Not to sound redundant with the contributions below, but as much as I love this, it’s unremarkable I’m sure to most. This was in rotation when I had a much smaller collection in high school. I purchased another bottle recently for the nostalgia. Nondescript fresh fruits, and a short lived burst of green at first blast. The fruits gradually become more saccharine- but the ripeness remains. I smell the cedar at the base which gives this a little more weight. Lasts suprisingly well for this house (usually my chemistry doesn’t get great performance from Hugo)

I just tested this and it's quite nice , very fruity ,very sweet and quite yummy ! A young fragrance in my opinion and very happy! I love plums and I adore iris and ceder as well as amber and sandalwood. ,,,and that's maybe why it speaks to me. For its price a nice scent that I think will do rather well. It's very sparky fruity in its opening. A little addictive almost like a burst of some summer punch by the poolside. Then it becomes more warm and sweet when it dries down less sparkly and less tart more rounded. I like it , I think really young girls will go crazy over it. I like it for days when I just want to smell like FUN! ;) The orig was more aquatic and fresh which I didn't really like as much.

Tried this the other day and i think its absolutely fantastic. Much more different than the original, fresh edt, which when i recall was a little unisex on me. This is fruitier and softer, and quite long lasting, although sillage stays close to the skin. I tried it during the week and got a sample, i will definitely be getting this, soon hopefully. IMO i actually feel this is rather unique, there is something very special about it if i compare it to a few other fruity greens, which i think could perhaps be due to the grass and tea notes. I'd say, this fragrance would be ideal for a night club, island beach holiday, and one i would wear during the day all year round. Love love love love love it.

This is my Christmas time at my parents house, after morning-shower chill freshie perfume :) it puts me into a festive, christmassy mood, without being spicy or sweet or heavy. It also smells a little bit like walking into a Douglas I guess. Nothing too special, but pretty and nostalgic :) The opening it so fresh and delicate, then it goes a bit sweeter, but also lotiony and creamy. Lasts about 3-4 hours on my skin max.
