Hugo Boss Boss Orange Eau de Toilette

The 14th December marked my 26th birthday where I was very spoilt indeed I had many wonderful gifts which all are on my 'to review list'. The first which comes to mind I had no idea I was going to receive, but as my wonderful fiancé Joseph knows me so well he knew I wanted this.

Hugo Boss Orange for Women Eau De Toilette:

'Passion and creativity are the very essence of the Boss Orange woman'

A couple of weeks back me and my partner went Christmas shopping to Boots where I was trying to find some nice perfumes for my mom and sister; along the way I spotted Hugo Boss Orange. I sprayed it on the card provided and both myself and Joseph liked it, well me more so!

Well I'm guessing at this point he took note that I liked the perfume then came back during the week for one of my birthday gifts.

The Range:

The Hugo Boss Orange range doesn't stop with fragrances it's also branching out into the shades range making upcoming trendy eyewear for 2011. Until researching Boss Orange I never knew that they also do the Boss Orange clothing and accessory range for men and women.

It also consists of body washes, moisturiser's and deodorant sprays.

The Notes:

Top Notes - Sweet apple.
Heart Notes - White flowers.
Base Notes - Vanilla and sandalwood.

My Findings:

The first time I smelt this perfume I fell in the love for me it was perfect, light but very aroma-full with being overpowering and very good staying power.

Mine came in a gift set with body lotion which I shall be using after my bath later, soon as I opened the perfume I sprayed it straight away on my neck and wrist. It's a light fresh scent where you soon start to smell sweet apples with a hint of vanilla and sandalwood.

The sweet apple did fade out slightly and you have more hints of floral, vanilla and sandalwood all combining very well together it a light, sweet, happy, warming aroma.

After about two hours I think the scent gets lighter but then lingers for a further four hours. After six hours it is still present on the skin but clearly not as strong, so re-application if your off out would be needed. However I never spray much I squirt one on my wrists then rub them together then one on my neck. So if you spray more I think you would get longer lasting results.

As it was my birthday I had many visitors popping around my house dropping cards and gifts off (I have a massive family) Where by young and old I was complimented on how nice I smelt! Even my Nan liked this perfume and I have one of the fussiest Nan's in the world! Oh the stories I could tell!

Price and Availability:

Hugo Boss Orange can be purchased from chemists and some supermarkets; however looking online they are much cheaper.

30ml - from £22.00
50ml - from £30.00
75ml - from £35.00

Mine was purchased from Boots in the Merry Hill shopping centre and for the 30ml bottle and 50ml of body lotion in a gift box for £26.00 which I think is great value for money and would be perfect for gifts.

Overall:

Personally for me you can not go wrong with this perfume, it has plenty of aromas without being to in your face. It looks pretty; they do great gift sets and excellent value for money. I find it a good all round perfume for day or night and it makes me feel pretty when wearing it!

A huge five out of five from me!
