Reviews of Boss Pure (2008)
by Hugo Boss

Having never been a fan of Boss frags, "Pure" pleasantly surprised me! After first experiencing it on a card, I was intrigued by the light, dare I say "fresh" properties of this fragrance. The following weekend, I happened to be in Nordstrom's, and the SA at the men's frag counter was pushing Pure. Two sprays on my neck, and I was hooked. Within 15 minutes of walking around the mall, I'd had two inquiries as to what I was wearing; went back and bought a bottle.
Pure has good sillage and for me, excellent longevity. It's light and crisp, and has proven to be a good choice for the office. When first applied, the top notes are quite bold, but it quickly settles down and mellows into mildly spicy, citrusy, full-bodied accords.

When you first spray this cologne on your skin it smells very citrusy. Then after about 5 minutes it just smells like soap. None the less, I still really enjoy it. It smells very clean like you just stepped out of the shower. Smells like pure soap. If you like that kind of scent then definitely buy Boss Pure.

A clean and fresh aquatic fragrance, without sharp open notes.

Nice for summer.

Crisp, fizzy citrus. Not like the other chemically messy cesspools like most of the other Boss fragrances. Is this a new trend for fragrances? Moon Sparkle by Escada and the new IZOD for Men have similar effervescent qualities to them. Pure seems to have better sillage and longevity of the three on my skin.
