Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Hugo EDT
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.
Favourite
Our Verdict - 085 Plat. Egoist. EDP
085 rebuilds Chanel Platinum Égoïste's aromatic-woody frame - lavender-rosemary-neroli top, sage and jasmine heart, cedar-vetiver-oakmoss base - but flattens the original's cool, mineral edge into a warmer, more generic woody-aromatic scent.
