About the original

Boss Selection is an aromatic fragrance for men from Hugo Boss, launched in 2006 as an eau de toilette. It opens with pink pepper, grapefruit, mandarin orange and bergamot, moves into star anise, cedar needles and geranium, and settles on musk, vetiver and patchouli. The result is a clean, tailored scent with a light anise sweetness that suits daytime and workwear.

This is a genuine hand decant of Boss Selection Eau de Toilette, taken from a 100ml bottle we bought ourselves. Eau de toilette is a lighter concentration than eau de parfum, so it wears fresher and suits warmer days and everyday use. A 5ml sample is enough to wear it for a week or two before you decide on a full bottle. Notes and launch year are taken from Fragrantica. The Scent Atlas is not affiliated with Hugo Boss.

How we fill our samples

All our samples are hand decanted using a syringe, in a controlled environment, with care. Each one is filled from an authentic retail bottle into a clear glass atomiser.

Why buy a Hugo Boss Boss Selection sample?

The retail bottle of Hugo Boss Boss Selection is £35 for 100ml. A 5ml sample from £6 costs a fraction of that, so you can wear it on your own skin through a full day before deciding whether it earns a place on your shelf.

Scent behaves differently on every person, so a sample shows you how it opens, how long it lasts and how it projects on you, not on a stranger's review. It is also a light, easy way to carry a favourite when you travel.

Every sample is hand decanted from an authentic retail bottle into a clear atomiser, with free UK delivery and no minimum spend.

Looking after your sample

Keep your atomiser away from direct sunlight and heat, and store it upright with the cap on. It is made of glass, so handle it with care and keep it out of reach of children.
