Nostalgia Trip to 2000's

Hugo Energise for Men Eau de Toilette was created by Claude Dir and was launched in 2005 by Hugo Boss.

This fragrance came into my possession by an accident, and while it did know about its existence before, it never seemed too interesting to me to actually try it out until now.

I have traded one of my perfumes for the discontinued Hugo Boss Bottled Intense Eau de Parfum and got this one as a free gift. Hugo Energise falls into the category of affordable perfumes, available in almost any perfume shop, and worth checking out without prejudice.

This perfume starts out with refreshing citrus notes, dominated by a kumquat fruit, very similar to one found in the Moschino Uomo?. Hints of spiciness and semi-aquatic notes give away a pleasant and effervescent aroma surrounding the wearer. The fleeting aquatic note comes from the mint and floral accords which are clearly detectable if you bury your nose to the place you sprayed the scent.

By the time the fragrance reaches the dry down in about an hour, what you are left with is an enjoyable woody-spicy scent with a touch of vanilla in the far dry down. Overall, it is a nice and a nostalgic scent.

Youthful sins?

My brother lived above a Douglas store at the time and when I went to visit him once, I met an employee in the stairwell lugging boxes. Of course I asked for my help and as a small thank you I received a few shower gel and fragrance samples of this new Boss fragrance.
Yes and what can I say, it has been my scent ever since. Around here, it would be called Signature.
I have really worn it for every occasion, season or outfit. And I also got frequent encouragement for this pleasantly sporty fragrance.
The following years I have consumed three large bottles.
Unfortunately, this fragrance has also changed over the years (negative).

The funny thing is, when I smell the fragrance now, I think of nothing to it. It is relatively difficult to recognize individual notes. In any case, it is quite unique. Starts relatively fresh-fruity, synthetic and then becomes woody. And this woody stays with you for a long time.
I probably won't wear it these days but I'll probably keep the last ~20ml. For sentimental reasons - he was me always a faithful companion

Underrated Energy

Hugo Boss has launched a variety of new fragrances in recent years under the umbrella of his various fashion labels. If you don't pay attention, you can easily overlook one of many. Especially since recently many rather below average scents arrived at the market and thus gradually diluted the great reputation of outstanding scents from the 1980s and 1990s. So, are the current Hugo Boss products only among forgettable mainstream launches? By no means!

A signal red carton gets your attention. In it you have a cylindrical bottle made of clear glass, broadly increasing upwards, filled with a pinkish liquid. A simple red logo and a vertical red pipe provide optical accents. There is no stopper, the atomizer is integrated under a silver cap. The whole thing is supposed to remotely resemble a battery ... a bit farfetched when I am comparing this with my batteries for my car or in general household use. Whatever: the bottle not only looks good, it fits nicely into my hand and sprays easily.

My first impression is an immediate potpourri of sweet and fruity notes, with bold pineapple dominating over the citrus medley. I can pick out mint but it plays only a brief supporting role. As the scent turns spicier, I notice pink pepper and nutmeg, but also flowers. The base notes come in late and rather cautious, but one can make out leather and vanilla.

This first sweet impression never quite lets go with this scent, only the tonality varies from fresh to spicy and floral, and later vanillic. All along, the scent remains very pleasing, almost overly well behaved. Looking for edges and corners here would be in vain, neither are there any entirely new fragrance impressions. If one has resigned to that, one is left with a typical everyday scent for the office, shopping, sports, and family barbecues in Summer. For those occasions, the scent is actually very good. Compliant, as has been said. With a reasonable, not overpowering sillage throughout almost the whole day, at least a good six hours with a solid level before the final four hours fade-out.

"Hugo Energise" is for me an underrated everyday scent because it does deliver for a whole day. Possibly not by far better than any of its competitors, it still performs nicely.

My tip for Spring and Summer.
