Another fresh fragrance I enjoy, with a touch of originality: a blend of citrus and oriental notes. Very youthful and authentic, slightly indie. Brilliant for summer, day or night.
An orange scent, but it lasts no longer than a sigh, and the projection is dreadful. Poor quality for the price paid.
Pepper, vanilla, and a juicy apple.
The scent is delicious, but it’s a matter of personal taste. For me, it fades quickly and I find myself reapplying it constantly. Its main drawback is the price-to-quality ratio. The smell is rich thanks to that juicy apple note; I detect the vanilla subtly, but it’s not overpowering. It’s nothing ordinary, perfect for spring and daily school wear, suitable for ages 15+.
I absolutely love this fragrance; it’s one of the few that last from morning until almost bedtime. I’m notoriously difficult to please when it comes to longevity, perhaps due to my pH, and most fresh scents I adore simply don’t stick. This is one of my favourites, lasting almost all day, just like the discontinued Carolina Herrera Aqua, which is a real shame. I highly recommend it.
I’ve owned this fragrance and it’s very rich; unfortunately, I’ve finished the bottle. Overall, it smells of sweet orange, apple, vanilla and very soft, almost imperceptible woods. It reminds me of an orange caramel. Very rich, suitable for any age.
It’s a sweet perfume, very lightly fresh at first: ripe sweet orange, vanilla and a very subtle hint of apple. That’s how I’d describe its scent.
Excellent, unique and distinctive.
It’s an excellent and authentic perfume, although I can’t help but feel it resembles The One by Dolce & Gabbana.
According to the notes, ‘red apple and vanilla’ isn’t bad at all, but there are better options for my taste: something fresher and younger. However, in that regard, I’d stick with the classic water bottle scent. As for the smell, I prefer the other one, but I repeat: it’s not bad at all.
Rich but lasts nothing. It’s a flash of good taste that fades into the background in 2 hours and then disappears.
This was my first Hugo Boss three years ago. I have the bottle stored away, although every now and then I smell its scent and it’s a delight. It feels like extremely sweet apple slices on a very subtle wooden board, with a touch of vanilla. It’s a light autumn-winter perfume, well youthful, that makes the wearer look elegant without going unnoticed. I think projection and longevity are average. A point in favour is the price. Total score: 7.5/10.
A delight! After the good results and conquest with Hugo Boss Bottled, I decided to look for another from the house expecting the same, and I found this little gem that conquered me at first sight and I bought it. The opening is citrusy and very sweet-fruity; the vanilla and spices bring out a beautiful sweet orange scent. A fruity fragrance that complements with a subtle touch of vanilla, apple, orange, ideal for warm climates. After 15 or 20 minutes, a subtle vanilla is felt that gives creaminess and a refreshing woody touch. It’s formal, classy, sophisticated, and intellectual, almost on par with Boss Bottled, but with a small flaw. Ideal for work or enclosed places; capable of changing the mood just with its scent. It goes well at any time, except for that “small” flaw: its trail and longevity are scarce, perhaps 1 or 2 hours at most, until you can’t even perceive it. If it were like Boss Bottled, it would be a masterpiece. When applying it in the morning, I close my eyes and I project myself being in the countryside squeezing fresh oranges from the dew, freshly cut, serving me a delicious and fresh natural juice.
As its olfactive family indicates: woody with vanilla and apple, a bit dry. I think it suits better in the evening. But very good!
It’s one of the ones I use most in my collection these months, although not so much anymore due to the strong heat. Let me clarify a misconception I see often (more so on English websites): this perfume doesn’t smell of orange, despite the name. For some it should smell of orange, but it doesn’t. “Boss Orange” is a subdivision of Hugo Boss, a clothing line like Boss Green or Hugo, and this is its fragrance. This happens with Armani (Emporio, Exchange), Versace (Jeans, Versus), D&G, etc. I hope this helps those buying thinking of that citrus note.
Hello. It’s strange that it’s called Orange yet doesn’t include orange in the ingredients, as it’s the note that predominates at the beginning, very similar to Boss In Motion which I also have. It’s pleasant, fulfilling, with a moderate trail and good fixation. I applied it in the morning to go to work and at night it was still felt at a short distance (my partner noticed it), although I couldn’t perceive it myself. I like it, although it’s a bit “plastic” (words that remind me of Prieth and Drakecito, hehe…).
It’s a good proposition. It starts fresh, thinking of sporty aromas, but evolves gaining presence from the vanilla and woods, which give it the right consistency and intensity. Quite intense, suitable for daily use, and versatile. Different from the rest of the house, I like it, but I think it lacks longevity, like many current fragrances. It’s a valid option: original scent, modern, and normal price for a designer.
Premium… The best from the house. The scent doesn’t match the declared notes for me: it starts with fresh sweet orange, then incense and resinous woods, something like D&G The One but lighter, like Lacoste Homme. Correct scent but very weak. For the price, no more is expected. For short outings requiring a certain elegance, in a sport casual style. Medium-high satisfaction. Recommended? Yes, very gentlemanly and of natural ingredients (not synthetic). Lasts only 2 or 3 hours on skin.
It’s an overlooked gem. The opening is synthetic, but within minutes it changes on the skin: you notice the pepper, vanilla, and incense, which smells like myrrh or burnt resin, with wax and a woody base, almost oriental. On clothes, it becomes sweeter, skipping the sweet, juicy red apple, vanilla, and wood. It’s versatile, suitable for day or night, casual or formal, and even in summer due to that fresh touch, better than the Boss Bottled ones that give me a headache, but with that Hugo Boss seal. The longevity is low and the trail moderate on skin. I bought it blindly for my boyfriend and he liked it; unlike Feel Good Summer, which lasts less, is very summery, and smells of bitter orange.
Boss Orange is a fruity, spicy, and woody blend. Upon opening, slightly bitter fruity notes dominate; Fragantica says it’s apple, and I believe it’s a Hugo Boss signature, like in Boss Bottled, but here there’s a citrus hint, perhaps orange peel, maybe due to the incense or the name misleading us. Ultimately, it’s a brand line. Despite being fruity, it doesn’t smell fresh due to those spicy and woody notes that give it warmth. It’s very linear, smelling the same at the start as at the end, and it’s pleasant, in the style of D&G The One or Lacoste L’Homme, without copying them. It lasts about 6 hours on my skin. Ideal for spring and autumn.
For some reason, it’s easier for me to review a perfume from 30 years ago than one from 10, especially if I only recently got to know it in 2020; I don’t know why this wonder passed so far from my radar. Obviously, the previous decade sought to move away from the sweet/floral scents of the 2000s and headed towards balsamic, vanilla, woody, and spiced notes. Although it shares points with Spicebomb Extreme (drier and spicier) and Fan di Fendi (more formal and ‘accord’), it stands out for its versatility: it can be worn by someone in their twenties for a night out or by someone in their fifties for a formal meeting. The climate range is wide: autumn, winter, and spring (it can be overwhelming in summer), and above all for its longevity; it’s rare for people to say it ‘doesn’t last’. My brother and I tested it, and it persisted for over 12 hours. Yes, it’s quite linear; the very sweet apple opening lasts a short while and appears below the coriander, which, along with the Sichuan pepper, gives that citrus touch that confuses many with orange. The pepper in the second phase is more noticeable than the incense and lasts longer, just like the vanilla that appears below the prolonged sweet woods. Anyway, 2011 was intense (personally, a difficult year), but now I can add this little gem to the column of few good things that happened, alongside Biophilia by Björk, Arabian Horse by Gusgus, and Scintilli by Plaid.
Excellent for going out on a weekend with your partner, shopping, or for a drink. It’s a fresh and sexy scent that reminds of oranges as the name suggests, and it has earned me compliments. It also has good longevity.
The perfume is pleasant, youthful, and seductive. When it launched, synthetic fruity scents were in fashion, and this followed that route. It’s synthetic, with a vaporous, fresh apple note that evolves into an exotic woody aroma with a touch of vanilla. It gets confused with similar ones but is versatile and suits any style and time of day. The bottle reflects a man’s six-pack abs; I found it amusing when it came out. Perfect for work, leisure, and night. The downside is that its performance is moderate, but it allows for over-application and has a good price. Very apt for Christmas gifts, it hits the mark with current tastes and isn’t outdated. A friendly fragrance with a sexy touch.
I started using daily perfumes at 13, and 12 years later there are fragrances I don’t remember. This is not the case: Boss Orange is spectacular. You can clearly feel a sweet apple at the start with a citrus touch, presumably due to the blend of coriander and pepper, which gives a well-balanced orange aroma. When the incense arrives, it’s spectacular; it was the fragrance that introduced me to this note, feeling youthful, warm, and slightly sweet, probably due to the vanilla. For a guy under 20 who can’t afford very mature or church-like scents, Boss Orange is perfect. At today’s price, it should be bought and given chances. Perfect for autumn and spring, day or night, with your partner or in the office. It lasts around 4 to 6 hours on me, projecting closely. Among so many perfumes I’ve owned, it’s incredible the memories it brings back; it’s very versatile and well-crafted.
My experience was this: Mati, is this the Dolce Gabbana One? He replied that no, it’s the Hugo BOSS Orange.
Good, pretty, and cheap… Highly recommended for autumn and winter.
I’ll tell you after having it for over 6 or 7 months. When I bought it in spring, it seemed pleasant but nothing special, and since it didn’t last more than 4 or 5 hours on the skin, I set it aside. Until this week, with freezing temperatures of 0 degrees in southern Chile, I wore it for three days in a row and it lasted over 12 hours! In the cold, that opening apple note (which doesn’t smell synthetic) is magnified and soon turns into a faint incense between the vanilla, changing with every hour. I think it has excellent value for money, perfect for wearing under a mask during the pandemic and sure to get compliments.
I bought it blindly on sale and was surprised by the spicy kick of pepper and spices, with an incense note that smells like myrrh. There’s a fruit note I can’t quite place—apple, plum, or orange, though Boss usually uses apple. A subtle vanilla adds warmth to all that roughness, while the wood rounds it off nicely. I find it drier than sweet, but it’s great for polluted environments thanks to that intense pepper. Yes, it reminds me a bit of The One by Dolce at the start, but it’s just an illusion. P/p Soft.
To me, it’s basically a night version of Boss Bottled.
Starts with a fruity note, like apple (but not exactly natural), which then transforms into a soft incense with a hint of pepper. I don’t notice the vanilla despite it being listed, but it smells a bit like Boss Bottled, just for more relaxed moments. Ideal for cooler climates, with medium projection lasting around 5-6 hours if applied correctly. It’s super versatile: looks good on a 20-year-old as much as someone over 50.
When I started working 18 years ago, my first investments in designer perfumes and fragrances were from the Boss line: this one and Imotion. I fell in love with both, alternated them, and wherever I went I received compliments; they were effective. Despite the time passed, I still find them very elegant; I don’t see them as retro at all, no perfume is like these two jewels. When they say the opening is apple, don’t imagine a synthetic fruity thing like today’s blue perfumes. Here the fruit is almost not felt, it’s so well conjugated with coriander that it smells very particular. Rather, it’s a vanilla perfume, woody with an oriental touch. I don’t see it for heat, maybe for the office; it’s not fresh at all. Sometimes it brings me a baby powder scent between that vanilla that lasts throughout the development. It has great quality, smells fine. Can you buy it blind? Yes. Is it cheap today? Yes, around $35 in my country approximately. But don’t expect anything spectacular; it’s a sober perfume, non-invasive, but elegant and for serious people. For over 25s perhaps. If you don’t want to spend on Dior or Chanel but want to smell fine and elegant, these Boss fragrances are a good option. Not the Bottled, those are another story; these classics have always pleased me more and have a bit more longevity. Now it’s not that they last long either. All Boss fragrances last between 3 and 6 hours, then they remain very close to the skin or very deep in the clothes.
For people in Argentina… if you’re looking for a BBB alternative for this perfume, look for BENSIMON URBAN. It’s a bit more citrusy but maintains the essence of Boss Orange.
I bought this perfume for my father at the official store, so I know it’s original. I’ve never hated a perfume before, but with this one it happened. I don’t know if it’s the incense note, the vanilla, or the combination, but it smells very dry and I truly can’t tolerate it.
I had it and after reading this I’m valuing it again. Excellent EDP in terms of price-quality for 2023. What a pity they changed the packaging for a generic one; it takes away from its potency. I hope to write about it again soon.
In my opinion, the best of Hugo Boss has all the vibe of the improved Bottled. It has orange, but it’s more like a smoked, woody, mysterious orange candy. It’s a sensual perfume, a conqueror’s scent. I’m talking about old batches; what a pity they reformulated it and the dry-down is no longer the same. If you find an old one, don’t hesitate, it’s a jewel. All Hugo Boss fragrances bring me memories of my adolescence; they are a time travel.
Red apple is one of my favourite notes, so I tried this. Its name is misleading: ‘Boss Orange’ could be called ‘Boss Red’. The bottle is pretty, reminiscent of Britney’s Radiance but masculine, though it could also be feminine; we are the ones who give it gender. The scent is vanilla and red apple; I don’t consider it gourmand, but almost, it’s on the edge. It projects quite well and has good projection for a Hugo Boss EDT. It’s the first perfume from this brand I like; I’ve tried most of them. The pepper and incense are very present. It reminds me of ‘This is him’ by Zaig & Voltaire, but a fruity version. Ideal for spring and autumn. At times I like it, at others I think it’s too simple; I still don’t know, I must keep trying it because it smells frankly well. The question is: do I feel identified? I still don’t know. I have to wait for the fireworks.
Boss Orange for Men: Starts with red apple and a hint of coriander. In the middle, the apple stays light while incense and Sichuan pepper enter. As it dries down, the apple and incense are wrapped in woody vanilla. Projects for 3-4 hours and lasts around 7-8. It’s my favourite Hugo Boss, perhaps the best for its unique aroma. The combination is exquisite: apple freshness, deep incense, oriental pepper and vanilla, creating something between oriental and occidental. Suitable for any season, even heat, and for any age. What a pity they discontinued it; it’s a unique scent. If you find it, make sure it’s the batch with the rectangular grid bottle and chrome cap; later versions (mug or ball cap) are nothing like it; they lack the incense and apple.
Red apple and coriander notes, closing with a discreet vanilla. I don’t know how, but they work brilliantly. It smells very soft, clinging to the skin. ‘Boss Apple’ would suit it better.
This is my favourite Hugo BOSS. I won it from an ex and loved it so much that when it ran out, I bought another bottle. The longevity is short, but the scent is brutal.
Incredibly underrated fragrance. Its only flaw: the trail and projection are very contained.
