The story behind the bottle.
Boss Orange Charity Edition by Hugo Boss was launched in 2012 as part of the brand's charitable initiative, with profits supporting UNICEF. This floral fragrance opens with a juicy red apple note that contrasts beautifully against the creamy white flowers and African orange flower in the heart. The base notes of vanilla, sandalwood, and olive tree create a warm, enveloping finish. Boss Orange Charity Edition offers a balanced blend of freshness and sweetness, making it a perfect representation of Hugo Boss's commitment to both style and social responsibility.
Apply this fragrance in light layers. The red apple top note fades quickly, so a second application after an hour can enhance its lasting warmth. Best worn during cooler parts of the day when the floral and woody notes truly shine.
