Hugo Boss Hugo XY is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2007, created by Daphné Bugey. Hugo XY opens with Bergamot, Cedar, and Pear, settles into a heart of Basil and Mint, and dries down to a base of Musk and Patchouli. Hugo Boss's Hugo XY carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

Hugo XY is a decent, airy green-fruity scent that's sadly hampered by its frankly abysmal performance. Many love the smell, calling it unique and pleasant, but most agree it simply doesn't stick around. A good daily scent if you don't mind reapplying.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its fresh, inoffensive nature and poor longevity make it perfect for the office where subtlety is key, and ideal for casual and sport use. It's too light for formal events or dates where a more impactful scent is preferred.

About

Imagine the fresh, juicy crispness of pear mingling with bright, zesty bergamot. As it settles, a clean, aromatic heart of invigorating mint and green basil emerges, adding a distinctive herbal edge. The base is a soft, woody musk, with a hint of earthy patchouli, creating a clean and inoffensive finish.
