Our verdict on Hugo Boss: Favourite

This one's a proper grown-up scent, divisive for its mature character and hit-or-miss performance. It's often praised as a classic and unique offering from Boss, but some find it dated or simply too fleeting to matter. A proper 'love it or leave it' juice.

About

Baldessarini opens with a zesty, bitter orange and tangerine, brightened by a cool mint. The heart introduces a surprising twist of chamomile and warm clove, adding an aromatic depth. It settles into a smooth, refined base of juniper, musky amber, patchouli, and a hint of smoky tobacco, creating a scent that's both fresh and luxuriously earthy.
