Hugo Boss Hugo Energise is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2005, created by Claude Dir. Hugo Energise opens with Kumquat, Lemon, Mandarin, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Freesia, Nutmeg, and Coriander, and dries down to a base of Leather, Teak, and Vanilla. Hugo Boss's Hugo Energise carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

Hugo Energise is a proper divisive one, mate. Fans adore its unique, zesty punch and energising vibe, often with a nostalgic nod. But if you're looking for beast-mode performance, modern formulations might leave you feeling short-changed. It's a fresh, spicy ride - just don't expect it to last 'til last orders.

About

Opening with a fizzy burst of pink pepper and zesty citrus like lemon and kumquat, Energise quickly invigorates. The heart introduces a cool, aromatic blend of juniper, clary sage, and a hint of nutmeg, softened by subtle florals. As it settles, a clean, smooth leather emerges, warmed by teak wood and a whisper of creamy vanilla, making for a distinctive and energetic drydown.
