Launched in 2005 and crafted by perfumer Claude Dir, Hugo Energise by Hugo Boss is a Woody Aromatic fragrance that combines the freshness of citrus with aromatic and spicy notes to create an invigorating scent. The composition opens with pink pepper, lemon, kumquat, and pineapple leaf, offering a bright and zesty start. This gives way to a heart of mint, mandarin orange, cardamom, juniper, jasmine, nutmeg, clary sage, and freesia, which adds layers of complexity and warmth. The base notes of coriander, leather, vanilla, and teak wood ground the scent with earthy richness.

Application Tips
Apply two sprays for optimal performance; the bright top notes are most noticeable in the first hour and give way to the warmer base notes that last throughout the day. This fragrance is best suited for daytime wear when its energizing qualities can fully shine.

The story behind the bottle.
The sharp tang of a fresh grapefruit cutting through the hum of an office — where crisp citrus meets subtle warmth, grounded by earthy undertones.
