Hugo (1995)
by Hugo Boss

More fraudulent bottles than real going around.
Still, one of my all time favs for a cheap cologne.
Yep !!

I own this, but I'd have to say that this is one of the worst scents that I have ever owned/tried. It was a gift from someone. The fresh peppery and spicy opening is actually acceptable, but the stale, damp and sour odor that it soon develops into, is quite simply repulsive, to me. I am rather tolerant to scents, and I've previously given thumbs down ratings for scents that I deem to be below average or mediocre, but only this one and Calvin Klein Escape for Men have actually given me much displeasure, so far.

First a synthetic blast, then a sharp piney, spicy, minty, rum opening that could be considered quite pleasant except that it develops an off-putting synthetic tang. This is one of those massed accords where the components can’t be separated out but are blended into a dominant theme that is well described as “pleasant artificiality.” The middle is another conglomeration of green / spicy / floral—somewhat chaotic and not entirely unpleasant. The base is subdued and nondescript. Unfortunately, this is a headache producing synthetic exercise in “near enjoyability.” It is a scent that seems okay the first few times it is worn, but quickly becomes off-putting. It is not the worst fragrance around nor even the worst by Hugo Boss, but I can’t see it as anything but a thumbs down. (Edit of 10 October 2005 review.)
