Hugo Boss Boss Intense is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2003, created by Ursula Wandel. Boss Intense opens with Spicy and Orange Blossom, settles into a heart of Rose and Vanilla, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, and Patchouli. Hugo Boss's Boss Intense carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.

A divisive yet much-loved discontinued gem from Hugo Boss, this one causes a stir. Some find it a masculine, heady mess, while others adore its warm, sensual, and undeniably intense character. If you can find it, it's a bold statement.

About

Boss Intense opens with an intriguing blend of spicy warmth and bright orange blossom. As it settles, a sweet, powdery vanilla emerges, intertwined with a soft, abstract rose. The dry down is a comforting embrace of creamy sandalwood, earthy patchouli, and rich amber, creating a deep and incredibly sensual impression.
