Hugo Boss launched Hugo in 1995, a fresh and aromatic scent created by Bob Aliano. The opening is crisp and invigorating, with green apple and grapefruit leading, followed by a hint of mint and basil. These notes soon give way to a heart of sage, geranium, and carnation, with jasmine adding a subtle floral warmth. The base is woody and earthy, featuring fir and cedar, with patchouli grounding the composition. The overall character is clean and invigorating, with a hint of herbal freshness that lingers. It suits a man looking for a fresh, aromatic scent for the spring and summer, best worn during the day in casual settings such as a walk in a park or a light business meeting.
