A laid back, chilled out, soothing iced tea fragrance
I find HUGO fragrances to be quite a hit or a miss these days. Luckily HUGO Iced is one of the former, being a hit imo.
As someone who drinks a lot of tea to the point that when family members go on holidays or small trips to local sight seeing locations which often have gift shops, or for Christmas and birthdays, they will often present me with all sorts of flavoured teas. So, it is surprising that I only own one fragrance that has a prominent tea note in it. However I think HUGO Iced makes up for the lack of tea fragrances as it is a good one in which the tea note can be easily found as it is not mixed with an arm’s length list of notes to go with it, thus allowing the tea note to shine, or in this case brew. The other two notes complement it well as I feel this is blended nicely.
I like to use this on days when I don’t want to be wearing my usual attention grabbing fragrances. I don’t say that in a way to mean that it doesn’t smell nice, but rather that it is a subtle scent, very easy on the nose making it good for things like appointments at the hospital or doctors where you may wish to wear something that won’t impose on everyone around you, and even if they do smell it, it’s not going to be harsh. It is very mellow. It is also good for times when you want to give your nose a break, or if you are already on a break from fragrances to reset any nose blindness, but you remember that you have an appointment you forgot about. In those moments this makes for an easy reach that won’t disrupt that break too much as the projection is not strong, not to say that you won’t smell it on yourself, you will, but the notes are not the kind that are going to have you going nose blind to them any time soon even if you overspray. It does have great longevity though. I put this on yesterday for a trip to the hospital at roughy 13:30pm and at 11pm I was still getting small whiffs of it coming from my skin amazingly without over spraying. I can actually still smell something reminiscent of it when i make movements as I write this the morning after. That is probably because of the break I am on which I do find allows me to smell fragrances for a lot longer than usual after a break for 5 or more days.
HUGO Iced is also very good for hot days as the name suggests. Spray this on in sweltering heat and you will indeed get a nice cooling effect from it.
For the price of this I think it is great. You probably won’t find it in the silvery bottles anymore but rather in the urn like shaped bottles instead, which is what I got. I am unsure why HUGO does this with other fragrances also where they have the same fragrance in two different types of bottles, but I don’t mind it in all honesty.
I am at a place in my collection where I can appreciate all kinds of fragrance and although I usually prefer loud attention grabbing fragrances, I also appreciate fragrances like HUGO Iced that while cheap still smells good and has a laid back soothing feel to it, and while before when I first bought and tested this, I wasn’t really sure when and where I would wear it at first, but it has definitely found a place in my collection that it can be used for and has been worn multiple times, and each time I wear it I welcome the smell and am glad to have it on me again.
I could see this being a signature scent for some, the perfect cup of tea you could say, and even if it isn’t your cup of tea there isn’t much to hate about it. It really is a pleasant smell that if someone else was wearing I would be happy to be around them all day and with its good longevity that will work.
This is definitely one of the HUGO fragrances that I do recommend, and it may not end up in your favourite fragrance of all time list, but I also don’t think it would end up in your most hated fragrances list either.
Another reason I can see this being appealing is that if the sound of taking a break from fragrances, even if it will allow you to enjoy them even more so at the end of the break, but you feel you can’t go a day without, then this is one that you could wear instead of taking a break as I have worn this twice during my break in the last week and I am still feeling the benefits that I would of if I had not worn a fragrance at all. So be kind to your nose and it will return the favour and allow you to smell things for longer, and remind you of some notes you forgot were in some of your favourite fragrances that you wear all the time. Like a cup of tea that us Brits love when we are feeling down or in need of comfort and regeneration, tea is always the go to drink we offer our loved ones when in time of sadness or just to relax, and in kind I offer this tea fragrance as a way to do so but from the form of scent instead of taste. So, I hope you will join me and have a soothing, relaxing spray of tea.
Score time.
