Reviews of Boss Bottled (1998)
by Hugo Boss

mmmmmm this has been almost forgotten and stashed somewhere in my room. i beleive its the firswt adn only bottle of at least 9-10 years? my bad i realised that date of production above, so it true, coz i rem it was marketted pretty intensely over here when it first launched. there still 1/4 left of it. i rem it to be on of the first few boss scent after No.1, that caughtl my attention, too bad it doesnt really leave that much an impression on me then , ad when i found it a couple days back in someoldd boxes from house shifting years ago, the scent had gone sour. but i very clearly rem it to be one of the better semi formal sliglty fresh macculine scent. there was a period that i had to have all of Boss's frags, but we all go thru that phase dont we. if fnd the likes of No.1 . selection, dark bleu would probably like this too. nothing too impressive. get it of a discount rack if its still available. i hardly seee it a boss counters and some 0say its been disontinued. doesnt matter coz i very much prefer leement aqua which i believe is the only falnker ever by boss? not too surehow hte in motion scents work out, but they seem totally disappointing. almost like selling out to aeathetics over content

Thick and syrupy but still unnatural smelling like the other Hugo Boss offerings. I do like the sweet smell of this and I can definitely detect the apple notes on the top (at first I thought I was smelling the Tommy Hilgfiger I had on the other day). It doesn't have 1-2-3 type drydown; it just goes from thick to thin. By the way, Hugo Boss, please label your vials clearer so I know which is which. Just having BOSS on it tells me nothing because everything else of yours has BOSS on it.

Starts out fruity and spicy then develops into a sweet middle and finally a nondescript ending. Not exciting, original or different to warrant a purchase. Even the name is boring. Not a blind 'middle of the road' buy though as it has an apple pie with cinnamon note that you may not like. Sample first.

I’ve never been a fan of fragrances by Hugo Boss but this one’s okay. It’s sweet and spicy but still nothing special to my nose. Also, it doesn’t smell as synthetic as other offerings from this house but, to a certain degree, it’s still apparent.

A very pleasant scent. The problem with it is that it is depressingly generic. If you want to smell like everyone else, you cant go wrong with this one.

Although I don't find the top notes particularly enticing, the middle notes and the basenotes ultimately make up for it. I find that people like the way it smells on me, and that if I use this once in a while, so do I.
