Hugo XY is one of the better Hugo Boss releases. It is light, mostly nonsynthetic, and pleasant. The fruit notes in the top are light and clean, and the herb notes in the middle level follow suit with a soft, fresh conciseness. The base has a clear cedar and patchouli that is comfortable and lasts well. I don’t smell any musk. XY is not a sensual or dramatic fragrance, but it is an enjoyable casual fragrance that is (to me) surprisingly well done: a very nice option for a young person.

Not bad, but again this is too generic. I want something that will make me stand out, not just be another person on the sea of indistinguishable fragrances. The opening is the only part that is worth while in this one...then it just dries down to a run of the mill patchouli base. Not impressed at all.

Clear evidence if any was needed that Hugo Boss have completely lost the plot. This represents a sequence of impotent notes strung together to achieve the complexity and nuance of a public convenience soap. At no stage does X & Y have the courage to afford the wearer anything to be proud of, or indeed anything noteworthy to discern whatsoever. It disappeared from my skin with some haste, perhaps out of shame for being so mediocre.

This is a very nice fragrance, I consider this a fresh just came out the shower scent. XY has decent longevity good sillage, this is worthy of a thumbs up.

Generic. It's not a thumb down because it definitley doesn't deserve that. There is a slight possibility I might have this scent one day even though it's nothing special.

Fresh, citrusy and slightly minty. A very good summer/casual scent. Its unique and doesn't at all smell generic. Has wood and musk notes. A quality contemporary scent. One of the best from Boss in recent times...
