Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Hugo XX EDT

Hugo XX is a divisive scent, loved by many for its nostalgia and soft femininity, but equally dismissed as generic or synthetic. Expect a pleasant, if unremarkable, fruity floral that might just be your signature or a headache in a bottle.

Our Verdict - Hareem Al Sultan Blue

Hareem Al Sultan Blue is a wonderfully divisive, sweet-tangy fragrance. Embrace the candied lemon and white floral punch, because it definitely punches hard and lasts ages. It's a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent, but for those who love it, boy, do they love it.

Season and Occasion Fit

Hugo XX

Seasons

Best For:

Spring Summer Autumn

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:

Office Casual

Also Works:

Date

Its soft sillage and 'inoffensive' nature, often described as clean and simple, make it ideal for office and casual wear. While some reviewers find it sensual enough for a date, its lack of strong projection makes it less suitable for formal events or sports.

Hareem Al Sultan Blue

Seasons

Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:

Date Casual

Also Works:

Formal

Its potent projection and extreme longevity, noted by reviewers, make it less suitable for enclosed office spaces. However, the sweet and bold profile is excellent for casual outings and especially for date nights where you want to leave a lasting impression.
