I finally figured out what this smells like! A Nivea men’s cooling gel I had in my teens. For some reason, I didn’t make this connection smelling the sample and thought it pleasant enough to buy for a sport scent, but now that I remembered the association, I’m like, “Ummmm, do I want to smell like I’ve just been slathered in mid-2000’s Nivea gel?” Not really. Oh, well. If you don’t make that connection it’s probably fine in a synthetic sort of way. Not cloying, fairly crisp, very casual, something for a pool-day or a long bike ride in the sun.

EDIT SECOND TEST
Overall a nice easy fresh scent, it doesn’t smell ‘typical’, nor particularly polarising. A young guy could wear, an older guy too. Or, I will wear it just because I can.
You could layer this with an ozone’s ir aquatic, or a floral perhaps. A sweet one… hmm you’d have to test that, there could be some light woods in this ? I can’t see to reference as I type

Just goes to show that you should never right off a designer/perfumer/brand whatever because you can always be pleasantly surprised. I think the fact that this is a flanker to a fragrance I wore during the late 90’s and had a bottle of until recently because I still kinda enjoyed the scent, but was the original HUGO really a good fragrance or was I just caught up in the nostalgia? Anyways, after going off it this Iced version didn’t really offer much if it was either generic crap or a tweaked version of the original, gladly it’s very interesting. The opening is green, I get basil actually, certainly mint, juniper and bitter orange for sure and a tea a little like bvlgari, with a vetiver background. This is a very impressive opening with nothing of those, generic modern accords, molecules or anything folks could describe as synthetic. Iced is a good name for it too, the freshness of the mint and greens make it superbly fresh. Then when settled it becomes extremely familiar and for me completely changes about as much as it could do, and resembles Chanel Allure Homme Edition Blanche which I know is a lemony, vanilla musk thing but it also has a kind of soft woody, powdery smell which is quite warm and even hints cashmerean or something like that. In the deeper drydown you can get another change but my point about this fragrance is that it’s excellent, transitions through several states and notes giving a genuinely refreshing ‘Iced’ experience without the usual cliches and it lasts well. I’m getting a bottle.

I agree with the other reviewers…this scent smells like an iced black tea with mint and orange in it. I can pick out a bit of vetiver, but not much and it’s a very clean note of it. It’s a very refreshing green scent that is great for a hot summer day. It does have an icy effect which helps you feel cooler.
Performance is somewhat weak for me…about 4-5 hours. Sillage is pretty close to skin and doesn’t project like most warm weather scents.
Scent 8.5/10
Longevity 6/10
Sillage 3/10
Value 7/10 (If you can find for 25-30 USD)
Presentation 7/10 (Basically a silver version of Hugo)
Overall, not a blind buy unless you really love tea fragrances. Worth looking into if you want a nice gym scent or something to wear to the lake. I don’t think it is worth full retail, but I always get it at a discount store and I keep it in my collection.

Very simple fragrance. Imagine bringing your nose to a glass of iced black tea with a sprig of mint and a squeezed orange slice floating on top. Refreshing and short lasting (3 hours before I have to bring my nose to my wrist only to smell hints of vetiver), but the fragrance brings an air of pleasant lightness. 8/10, one of the few no-brainer scents on a 90+ degree day. Bring a decant with you

Something about this reminds me of Armani Code Sport Athlete. Not the scent in general but there is some elements in this frag that bring me back to Armani Athlete. Both are very good and perfect summerscents. They have that in common as well 🙂

If I hadn’t received this as a Christmas gift I probably would have dismissed it without even trying. However I gave this a try and must say I really do enjoy it. The minty fresh “ice” take on this fragrance is very cooling and bright. I think this would be an amazing scent to wear straight out of the shower in the summer on a hot afternoon. Not sure what this is retail but I’d imagine it would be on the grey market stores online by now so well worth it at a cheap price. The performance on me was actually good today I got whiffs of this well into the early afternoon from spraying at 6am (so at least 7hrs).

Fresh, minty, nice when you smell it in the air but nothing special, generic and to me smells a lot like some body deodorants which have their tagged name as “sport” “fresh” or even “polar”

Wow this is almost a Heeley Menthe Fraiche clone. The mint and the tea give that heeley vibe. Very good!! Now i can buy a fragrance which smells like heeley menthe fraiche and save much money. Great. Performance on both are a bit below average
slc973speagoessenda – :
Just off a single sampling, has a D&G Light Blue meets Bvlgari Man Extreme. Understandable based on the note pyramid, in which I felt all notes listed were fairly discernible. Guessing it’s slight sourness has led to the low rating, currently well below 3. Score seems a bit harsh- if you don’t like bitter or sour, look elsewhere…it’s solid 3/5 for me though.
UPDATE- 2nd time around this one wasn’t nearly as good. Promising opening (what’s new, right?) but becomes hollow and just a bit off. Bvlgari Man Extreme is much more complete than this one…not worth any price.

Tried it today. What a surprise! a quality fresh masculine minty scent that truly gives a wave of icy freshness.

A nice surprise from Hugo Boss, an amazing new release that stands out and has a quality to it, as “simple fresh naturally smelling scent”.
It is a Very clean and fresh Orange flowery scent, has an absolutely amazing longevity, finally.
Easily can be unisex.

This is a great gym scent, lasts pretty well and sits on men’s skin flawlessly.

Who voted the Performance already? I mean here are just 2 reviews shown and I sure believe that they’re legit and all that but why are people downvoting fragrances in general or their performance?
shamil111 – :
Starts off a bit generic with a fresh
mint vibe, kind of what you expect from
boss fragrances, its good but nothing
great. I do however like the whiffs i get
now and then when moving around, its quite
plesant, for sillage and longevity i think
it is pretty good overall i can faintly
still smell it over 12 hours after one spray
not to shabby tho, worth checking out if you like
boss fragrances or mint in general.
sergio69 – :
Starts with Mint and Green Tea very obvious, .
Silage is very good
Longevity 5 hours plus
If you love the original Hugo, you’ll definitely love this one blindly

This flanker definitely has an icy opening, but it changes into a less icy (though still pleasant) orange + tea smell within an hour. At first I was really hoping I’d found my long-desired icy gentleman smell (I yearn for a classy cologne that doesn’t smell like vetiver or vanilla-tobacco), but the bitter orange and tea isn’t that. It’s very fresh and a nice change from the cedar + lemon trend of recent years, but it’s a pretty casual smell. Hoping that cold and clean becomes a common style in the near future!
