Which Should You Buy?
This cult classic is a divisive beast: a potent, green rose that evokes a fresh botanical garden with an edgy, almost illicit undertone. Its discontinuation has left a void, elevating it to mythical status despite its challenging notes for some.
Hugo by Hugo Boss is a proper '90s time capsule, divisive for its synthetic edge, but widely adored for its fresh, green apple-inflected charm. It's a classic that many started their fragrance journey with, still sparking nostalgia and debate today.
