Perfume Parlour German Origins is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1995. German Origins opens with Grapefruit, Lavender, Apple, and Basil, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Geranium, Carnation, and Sage, and dries down to a base of Fir, Cedar, and Patchouli. Perfume Parlour's German Origins carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

German Origins recreates the cool green-apple-and-mint freshness that made Hugo by Hugo Boss a 90s staple, drying down to aromatic pine and woods. The original's crisp clarity reads a touch flatter here, but it captures that clean, sporty character on a budget.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

German Origins opens on the same brisk rush that defined the original Hugo by Hugo Boss: cool green apple, mint and grapefruit lifted by aromatic basil and lavender, fresh and faintly bitter. A herbal heart of geranium, sage and a whisper of carnation carries it before the base settles into pine, balsam fir and cedar for a clean, woody finish. The original is a crisp aromatic green that feels modern and outdoorsy; this Perfume Parlour version reads recognisably similar but flatter, with the apple and mint pushed forward and the refined woody-balsam depth thinned out. Projection is moderate and longevity sits in the middle band. A fresh, energetic green-aromatic ideal for warmer months, casual and sporty wear, and easy daytime use.
