How It Smells After 10 Minutes
Ever smell a perfume and think "wow I love this" and then wonder why it smells different after a while? Don't worry you're not alone. Once the top notes dry down you will get more of the middle and base notes.
As mentioned above with BOSS Bottled. You get that fresh apple smell at first. But once it dries down you get more of the cinnamon and woods.
If you were to purchase it thinking you'll only smell fresh apple. Then you're missing half the fragrance. Which is why you should look past the top notes when buying Hugo Boss perfume online.
BOSS The Scent Also Has Fruit
Not all fruit will smell fresh and fruity. BOSS The Scent for Him Eau de Toilette has ginger, maninka fruit and leather.
So although it does contain fruit it's mixed with ginger and leather. Which will smell different to the fresh apple in HUGO Man.
It's another reason why you should read the notes before purchasing. If you already have BOSS Bottled and are thinking of trying another Hugo Boss fragrance. Don't expect The Scent to smell the same. They are all different fragrance lines.
HUGO or BOSS?
You may have noticed that some fragrances say HUGO and others say BOSS.
They all come from the Hugo Boss fashion house. But don't expect them to all smell the same. As we've seen above HUGO Man will smell more green and aromatic. Whereas BOSS Bottled Eau de Toilette will smell of apple, cinnamon and woods. And BOSS The Scent for Him will smell of ginger, maninka fruit and leather.
So just look at what the fragrance says on the front. And then look at the notes to get a better idea of how it will smell.
Women's Hugo Boss Perfume
We shouldn't forget about the women's fragrances either. Just because BOSS Bottled and HUGO Man are popular doesn't mean there aren't great women's fragrances.
BOSS The Scent for Her Eau de Parfum has peach, osmanthus and white musk. So you get that fruity smell from the peach. Osmanthus is a flower that can smell of apricot and leather. And then you get the white musk.
Which is completely different to the men's version of The Scent. So although they are both called The Scent they are not the same fragrance just for men and women. There are also other women's fragrances that Hugo Boss has released. Such as BOSS Alive and other BOSS fragrances.
BOSS Bottled Elixir Isn't Just a Stronger Version of Bottled
This is something that many people fall into when buying men's perfume. They see a fragrance they like and then see the word Elixir or Intense or Parfum. And think that it will smell the same just stronger. Well not always. BOSS Bottled Elixir is a different fragrance to BOSS Bottled Eau de Toilette. It will smell more woody and ambery.
So if you like the smell of BOSS Bottled Eau de Toilette don't jump on the Elixir version. Make sure you know which one you're buying.
You Don't Have to Wear a Suit to Wear Hugo Boss
Because Hugo Boss is a fashion house you may think that you have to be wearing a suit to wear their fragrances. But no you don't.
You can wear BOSS Bottled without wearing a suit. Or you can wear HUGO Man without being in casual clothes. It's all about what you like the smell of. If you like the smell of green and aromatic fragrances. Then maybe HUGO Man is for you. Or if you like the smell of apple, cinnamon and woods. Then BOSS Bottled may be for you.
