Boss Intense (2003)
by Hugo Boss

intense...but not in the wrong way. not sweet at all, just a little bit too spicy.... i used it during winter and it worked just fine for me ....

A work colleague used it and I asked the name of the fragrance. As she didn't remember the name, just the Boss brand and the shape of the bottle she draw for me, I went to a store to check what Boss fragrance it was.

Found the Boss Intense, the only bottle resembling the draw she gave me. When tested, the top notes were spicy and citric, based on kumquat. Middle notes were flowers and roses, and smelled like my colleague at office in the morning. Final base notes were soft woods, a bit sweet, and musk. On paper, the last notes remembered me some traces of Anais Anais.

For daytime, office and romantic use, and maybe an evening simple event. The age range seems to be around 25 and 45 years old... my colleague was 26 and it fitted well on her.

I'm fairly ambivalent about this. It has an initial fruity floral scent that settles to nothing special enough to make note of. It's very pleasant, but surely not intense.

I like this one, too. It's the amber of course. ;) I agree that the dry down is lovely, and it lasts a good long time without being overly powerful. Overall, it has a crisp, clean, yet romantic scent. As long as you don't wear too much of it, I think it's sophisticated enough to wear to work as well.

this is NOT sickly at all! admittantly it is quite heady and rich but dries down to a lovely spicy amber musk and i always get compliments from wearing this one. Dads always hate their daughters perfume anyway poolepirate...

INTENSE! Awful. Too strong, too sickly. Very bad. My daughter wears it, and I don't even like standing too close to her when she's got it on!
