As for the notes other than the woody notes, they disappear almost as soon as you spray it. Maybe about 2 minutes and the smell of lavender and apple become secondary to non-existent. (Not necessarily a bad thing) At first, I didn't like it. Not to say I hate it, but I preferred Hugo boss No.6. After few times wearing it, I found it very interesting. It projects well and has good sillage. It may be funny, but I like to spray perfumes in my hair. In the days that I spray it in my hair, I like to occasionally stand under fan or air-conditioner :D It's a very nice fresh scent with fruity overtones, if that's what you're into. Initial blast is extremely overpowering. Go very modest with the sprays. This is a classic legend which still rules out today.Its a very clean fresh and very manely and mature scent.Best for office wear.I can clearly smell apple aroma and lots of it.The 80's and 90's perfumes were the power houses and so does this.Sillage and lasting power are good.I always get complements when i wear it but most of them are from men.I recommend it for all seasons this is a safe scent.

Fragrance of my youth :) this was the first "real" perfume I used, and I used it for many years in my late teens. Got a chance to smell it again now 15 years after I stopped using and it is an quite nice fragrance in the end, I was expecting it to be a lot worse to be honest, didn't trust my teenage sense of smell I guess. However a couple of differences to me....initially its projection is stronger, especially the fir. However on me, it doesn't last nearly as long as the original - after only a couple hours it's already a skin scent. So, i think like D&G also did with the one, for that one it was good because it's an amazing scent, but didnt last. It then gradually transform with hints of florals ramping up the barbershop effect, before drying down to an accord of lavender, apple and fir on top of hints of cedar.The opening is a very juicy minty apple accord with lavender. It's a bit barbershop and very fresh. Super safe and versatile dumb-grab fragrance. It remains very faithful to the original while coming across as denser and more modern: green apple is the main player here, with woodsy and green notes supporting it. It's your typical "shower gel" sort of scent. Newbie here but I like this scent and I have received compliments on it from lots of different girls Nevertheless is a great buy. Boss should make all their perfums like this, projection staying power, scent, silage, etc etc etc.

An excellent interpretation of Boss this Hugo. Very aromatic and green. It starts with fir, grapefruit and basil and then daring space to Mint with cedar. Excellent alternative to the Victorinox Swiss Army. thats whats so hard about this fragrance. it fits most people, but only brings out positive things to a handful of them. A light fruity floral woody-spicy. The fruity is kinda apple, but not really, I say grapefruit is more like it, but also apple, light floral at the same time but not sure what type, then it turns more into cedar spiciness. Good for the office, or daily use, but it's pretty juvenile, or amateur. So, I got this based on many people stating, this smells exactly like the original, but longer ( generally ) Love it. Why? dunno. Hate all the generic wimpy juices it spawned. But Hugo Boss Hugo is where the sea breeze originated first & moved on to Sahara desert.This is actually AWESOME!! A bit more appropriate for the younger crowd but still an amazing, well put, memorable scent. Hugo Extreme is very similar to the classic Hugo Man from 1995,and looks like a pretty nice upgrade as far as performance go.It's very fresh,green,masculine,woody and That core is made up of basil, cedar, fir, and patchouli, and the fruitier notes just sort of dance around the edges of this spicy heart. Ok , here it is im not gonna review this or somethin just straight to the final conclusion , its going to be a little offensive for some , but its just my take on this particular HUGO BOSS frag , here it comes : ITS BULL S#!T , dont buy this its so synthetic and generic it does not have any quality to it the best part of this frag is its bottle so as always !:

Bought this because I loved the smell of it in the store... 1 month later, I absolutely hate this scent - so synthetic, so cheap, gives me a headache everytime. Why would anyone dislike it I can't imagine... It's really, REALLY pleasant smell and it lasts for ages and the sillage is incredible for a long time too. Given to me as a gift long ago. It was definitely fresh (superfresh - like clean linens and cut grass) , with some notes I like (mint, pine , lavender etc.) but it also smelled synthetic and very department store generic. I kept it around for a long time and eventually got rid of it, as it deteriorated over time: definitely a use it or lose it fragrance. It's not a players scent. This is the fragrance of a man who has a more mature agenda. Not that this smells particular mature - a 20 year old could pull this off with no problems, but it's more low-key and understated. It doesn't exude luxury, instead it's more of a man's man scent. Think Charles Bronson for the 90s. HUGO Menswear presents sharp cuts and clean designs that stand outside of the status quo. The HUGO man’s only rule when it comes to style: being his authentic self and nothing else.

This is a spring/summer fragrance for daytime and casual wear but it's versatile enough to be suited for work as well, depending on what you do. Performance on my skin is very good, 8+ hours easily with good projection within the first 2-3 hours. I like the fragrance but the only bad thing about this one is that it leaves bad yellow stains on white shirts which never get cleaned after many washes :( Hugo Extreme opens with a blast of green apple. As the apple dies down, you get a lot of the fir note in the base along with some lavender and sage. The base is the fir and the cedar note. I honestly do not notice the geranium.

Smells like an apple and pine tree hand sanitizer. Very sharp for the first two hours, pleasant for the next two hours after which it becomes too subtle to notice.
