Himalayan Red Grass - anybody?
"An unconventional blend of rich floral and daring fruity notes with an aromatic twist". P&G's marketing department has chosen some intriguing adjectives for their cardboard sample text. Alas, none of this blurp is true. "Boysenberry" in the top notes? I smell some nondescript fruit-thing. "Himalayan red grass?" Hello? That's a new one. Who would be in a position to judge what Himalayan red grass smells like? Good idea. Come up with some new aromachemical and label it with an exotic title...
Then we have "black tea" and "jasmine". Well, probably the one sold in plastic bottles with added preservatives and artificial sweetener. The base is supposed to contain "amber". Fine. That's kind of a wide notion... ample opportunity for the chemists to insert whatever they deem cheap enough into that uninventive bottle looking like a copy of Chanel's "Chance". Unconventional? Daring? Yes, the companie's statements about their new fruity-floral baby are extremely daring. The fragrance itself is boring and generic.

sex and the city
This fragrance reminds me of our ladies' nights, where we plunged into the nighttime pleasures of the city after a hard day's work.

We were six (sex) experience-hungry ladies who wanted to chat, dance, and flirt.
Sex was not on the agenda - it only appeared in our clique's name, due to our six different, tousled heads in which many wild ideas resided.

One could lay their problems on the table, listen to the music, joke around, and gauge their market value based on the desirous glances from the gentlemen and ladies.

That had to be enough.

Hugo Woman would have fit perfectly into these outings.
Boysenberry, ragwort, and mandarin are attractive but not conventional.
The iris brings a mysterious darkness into play, but is lightened up again by bright jasmine.
Enough with the profound debates - a little dance is attempted.

The black plum is mild and soothing - and one lets their gaze wander relaxedly.
The black tea is warming and unifying.
Spicy cedar wafts over it, and the sandalwood binds everything together creamily.

Like our harmonious group, which was always welcome everywhere.

A cheerful fragrance with depth that conveys a sense of belonging.

Too youthful
A few days ago, when I wanted to buy my Hugo Woman and the bottle looked so
different, I sprayed it just to be sure.
That was not Hugo Woman, so I asked. Yes, it smelled completely different,
it has been re-released, more youthful, the old one is no longer available, I learned from the saleswoman.
Since I wasn't immediately convinced, she gave me 2 samples to test it at my leisure.
However, I don't want to be without my Hugo Woman, so when I got home, I bought out
almost all the stock online.
Still, I decided to try the new Hugo Woman, because eventually
the remaining stock of the old scent will run out.
It's somehow a "chaotic" composition, I think. It starts sweet and fruity, then briefly takes on a bit
of a harshness and ends in a mixture that is undefinable for me. The amber makes it "soft and cuddly"
at the end, yet it retains its fruitiness, is sweet but not sticky sweet. That might be due to the bitter grass note in it.
Hmmm, I thought, not the freshness and everyday suitability of my Everyday Darling, as the old Hugo was, but okay, I'll give it a chance, even though I don't like the fruity aspect that much.
However, I didn't really feel comfortable with it. When my son came home from school and said:
"Wow, Mom, you smell so good. What fragrance is that? I'm going to give it to my girlfriend for her birthday,"
(he is 17 and she is 16 years old) it became clear to me that this scent fits into a different generation.
Not mine anymore. Too youthful indeed.
For young girls, it is surely a great fragrance with class and style, if they can afford it.
And I think it will be very well received and a bestseller.

Generic
Generic, but generic of what exactly? Hugo Woman has been around at least 100 times. It spontaneously reminds me of "Laura" and the Cool Water Sea Roses fragrances. But many others come to mind as well, yet as often, I can't really grasp and name them (do you know that feeling? It's on the tip of your tongue, but it just won't come out?). Hugo Woman is like a mix of all these faceless mainstream bestsellers that have hit the market in recent years. Through and through artificial / chemical, nothing natural. I can't perceive boysenberry, jasmine, tea, or amber. Even though this all sounds like a harsh critique: actually, Hugo Woman smells quite pleasant and is a thoroughly uncomplicated companion in everyday life. My prediction: it will be a bestseller, but it won't be joining me.

Hugo Unisex
~ Inspiration ~
The new "Hugo Woman" immediately landed on my wishlist, and during a swap, I received a sample to test.

~ Bottle ~
The round, flat bottle with a red ring and lettering is simple and modern.

~ Scent ~
Upon dabbing, you immediately recognize the typical Boss character. Tart boysenberries and mandarins provide a fruity, zesty opening. Indian black tea, plums, and iris give it a spicy-floral expression that fades into cedar and sandalwood.

~ Longevity ~
On my skin, it lasts about 5 hours (a bit longer on clothing and hair). A few sprays are advisable, as otherwise, it becomes too synthetic and dry for me and scratches my throat.

~ Occasion ~
It fits well into the mild days of spring and autumn (also as a pleasant office scent). It could definitely pass as unisex, as it comes across more herbal than sweet.

~ Conclusion ~
It reminds me of "Boss Woman" (which I had a long time ago) and a bit of "Tommy Girl." While I quite like the beginning, it then becomes too synthetic for me...

A very interesting freshie with an unusual fruity note, a slight bit of sweetness and a hint of woody undertone.

A light refresher for warmer days. A bit synthetic, yet still gives a powdery-sweet just-showered feeling after applying. Subtle.

For ladies who like a delicate DNA + sillage. Fresh-floral-fruity-clean, hardly any recognizability. Clean + well-groomed.

Fruity-bright mandarin overshadows sweet-woody-earthy black tea plum with iris. I would have preferred a focus on iris & tea.

Not an olfactory masterpiece, but a straightforward, unobtrusive, solid everyday scent with a pleasantly subtle clean freshness.

I love this scent, good longevity and wearable at any time, not overpowering but also not totally inconspicuous.

3..2..1..Fruit explosion!!
Fruits galore for 30 minutes, then it becomes more floral, more pleasant.
In the end, I have banana associations.
Always a winner!

Fresh-fruity berry scent, but unfortunately with terrible longevity. I used to find the scent more sporty-fresh, liked it better.

The scent is really not bad. Suitable for everyday use, sporty, and interesting.
