Unremarkable, unoriginal, completely interchangeable...
Clean and unobtrusive it is, I must give it that. Those who appreciate this will be happy with Hugo Boss Woman.

Nothing against cleanliness and straightforwardness. I love clean, I love fresh scents, I love the laundry freshness kick. But: This fragrance here is completely interchangeable, unoriginal, and has ZERO RECOGNITION VALUE. As has already been said: It is nothing special. A clean representative, but of the bad kind (Eternity and Chloé 2008 are, for me, fresh scents of the very good kind).

Very harshly put: Actually, this Boss little water is perfect for gray business mice in clean business suits, like those buzzing around in sterile open-plan offices. The average boss will appreciate that one does not exude an individual note.... (Sorry, that had to come out).

Like Sun-Warmed Skin
How did it come to be that this fragrance has been downgraded to a drugstore scent? "Sunflowers" is everything -- just not a typical sweet scent.

Even when it was released in the early 90s, it was something very special (and still in the perfume league back then). It smells absolutely unmistakable of pure, radiant sun!!

It's simply amazing how the perfumer managed to capture the pure scent of the sun: how it smells on the skin warmed by it, how it vibrates in the air, how it is reflected by the sandy beach.

And: Sunflowers ultimately does smell like sunflowers. Because sunflowers don't actually smell like flowers, but rather like warmth, the color yellow, and indeed like sun rays (we had a few giant specimens in the garden, so I think I can remember).

One of my favorites and completely unjustly in the drugstore league!

Smells like it looks: After the warm elegance of the 90s!
For me, one of the best and most typical perfumes of the 90s. Also one of the terracotta-colored bestsellers of the time (the nineties somehow had a thing for this color: Roma by Laura Biagiotti, Dune by Dior, Cerutti 1881 Woman, Gio by Giorgio Armani, etc.).


At least I find -- Trésor smells like it looks: Warm but not overwhelming (not oriental!), beautifully apricot-like but not cloyingly fruity. Powdery but not dizzying, a bit woody-spicy but not harsh, just subtly floral. ROUND AND DELICIOUS!

1998 my very first duty-free purchase from my hard-earned pocket money ;o)
