From jasmine sambac to vanilla, a few wearings at a time
Hugo Boss makes Alive, an Eau de Parfum you can get to know here in a small vial. The house names jasmine sambac, woody notes and vanilla as what you can expect to find in it. A decant of 2, 5 or 10 ml lets you wear it on several days before you decide about a full bottle. Pay attention to what is still there by the evening, since that is the part you live with longest.

On the skin
How it unfolds
-
The core
Jasmine sambac: the recorded middle of Hugo Boss Alive. Check it once the top has faded, not before. Wear it on more than one day before you make up your mind. The opening is the loudest part and the shortest, so let it pass before deciding.
-
The drydown
The house lists woody notes and vanilla in the base of Alive. This is the stage you live with longest, so it deserves the most attention. What reads as sweet on one person can read as dry on another. Notice how close it stays to the skin and how much of it others pick up.
-
How it is classified
DecantGems files Alive under these scent families: floral, fruity and gourmand. A family is a broad direction, not a promise, so use it to decide whether the sample is worth your time. Notes on a list are a map, and what you notice on your own skin is the territory.
Testing it
How to test it, for whom and why
How to test it
There is no recorded season for Alive. Begin on an ordinary day and take it from there. Try it once at home and once outdoors, since air and temperature change the impression. Keep the rest of the vial for a second and third try in other weather.
Who it is for
According to the house, Alive is for women. People who tire of scents quickly do well with small sizes. Collectors use decants to explore widely without filling a shelf. It suits people who like to put a few scents side by side over a week.
Why try Hugo Boss Alive as a sample first
A full bottle is a long commitment, and a sample lets you make it with open eyes. It is our own decant from the original bottle, labelled by us. This is not an official brand sample and the house is not involved. The full bottle of Alive holds 50 ml, which is a lot of perfume to own before you know it.

Frequently asked
What does the sample look like?
It is a small glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml with our own label on it. It sprays like a bottle, so you apply Alive the way you normally would.
Is Alive for men or for women?
The house lists it for women. In practice a perfume suits whoever enjoys wearing it, and a sample is the simplest way to find out whether that is you.
Will Alive be the same on me as on someone else?
Probably not exactly. Skin, weather and the amount you apply all change how a perfume comes across, which is the reason to wear Hugo Boss Alive yourself before deciding.

I really appreciate that I found a shop that has a wide range of authentic perfumes,fast delivery,great communication and very good prices. Thanks for everything!
Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
