About this deal

I think it's a great and rare take on a floral cologne for men and it should be approached with an open mind. So it could benefit from more citrus and earthiness, especially more moss, and if I got all my Christmas wishes they'd swap the violet for iris.

It's violet and powdery and a little sweet and floral but there is an earthiness to it that personally stops me loving it. I’m curious whether they meant to take it in that direction, or if it just sort of turned out that way, but either way it smells awesome.

Forms an intimate scent bubble if sprayed on clothes but it doesnt stick to it till the next day, unless you spray multiple times on a single spot and go for a scent hunt sticking you nose to it. It opens with this strong tangerine/pink pepper combo that gives off nearly a completely opposite vibe than what I was expecting, which was a dark, smooth, mature fragrance intended for night wear. Read more about the condition New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging is applicable). It seems almost prophetic that the commercial pictures of the bottle are more of a dark blue colouring rather than black, but perhaps the marketing department did this deliberately after they smelled it, as this is a fragrance as blue as they come. If you are starting a collection and want to try the Blue DNA, but do not want to spend too much money at first, this is a great choice!

So I did compare them side-by-side (one on each arm), as well as compare the notes listed here on Fragrantica. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. The middle notes are patchouli, papyrus, earthy notes, jasmine and sweet notes, whilst the base notes are moss, tobacco, Atlas cedar, tonka bean and insense to give a masculine tone. I get no incense and little patchouli, I've noticed that fragrances do tend to smell sweeter on me than compared to what many here describe.It is not necessarily a bad thing, I am not sure what that distinct smell that they both have is, but it can get a bit annoying. This is one of the few fragrances from my "Violet" period that has survived all of the changes in my fragrance preferences through the years. Perfumes are often designed with top, middle and base notes, and designed to smell different based on the time after application. Hugo Boss Boss Orange Man Eau de Toilette 100ml Spray is a premium eau de toilette of Hugo Boss brand. I'm not one for knowing much about flowers, as I am a burly tough Scotsman (who proudly wears a kilt), and the smells of well-aged fine whiskey are more my forte, but the smell of this toilet water is quite acceptable.
