Perfumes Zag Zodiak 128 Hugo Boss Hugo is an Eau de Parfum. 128 Hugo Boss Hugo 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. Perfumes Zag Zodiak's 128 Hugo Boss Hugo carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

128 HU follows Hugo Boss Hugo's green-apple-and-herbs template closely enough to work as a cheap daily alternative, though the fir-cedar base thins out fast next to the original's fougere depth.

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.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

  • Spearmint Mentha Viridis Leaf Oil from Mint

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

128 HU is modelled on the classic green Hugo Boss Hugo, opening with green apple, lavender and mint before sage and geranium bring an aromatic heart. Fir, cedar and patchouli anchor the base. The dupe captures the original's fresh, sporty character well but wears closer to the skin and settles sooner.
