Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Hugo Red Eau de Parfum
Hugo Red is a divisive, quirky blend of fruity sweetness and metallic edge. You'll either love its unique, energetic profile or find its synthetic side a bit nauseating. Definitely a 'try before you buy' kind of scent, but compelling for those who dare to be different.

Our Verdict - Copper Eau de Parfum
This one's a proper ride, shifting from a challenging green-metallic smack-in-the-face to a surprisingly cosy, sweet tobacco dry down. Definitely not for everyone, but if you're up for an olfactive adventure, Comme des Garçons' Copper is a unique work of art that demands your attention.

Occasions

Best For:

With moderate performance and a fresh, uplifting vibe, Hugo Red suits casual wear and could work in an office setting if applied sparingly. Its uniqueness and playful fruitiness make it interesting for a casual date, but it lacks the gravitas for formal events.
