Without having a sample of A*Men at the moment for a side-by-side comparison, my olfactory memory tells me that this scent is pretty close to Mugler's original A*Men.
What intrigues me even further, is that this scent is supposedly launched in 1994, while A*Men was not launched until 1996. Just goes to show what marketing and advertising can do, as far as I know A*Men has been praised for years for being one of the first gender benders and male gourmands.
Even if the bottle is a little tacky, the wonderful smell of lavender and burnt sugar with musky honey and some vanilla really does smell good. Warm, ambery and fruity and the same time.
If you're on a tight budget and looking for a rich sweet gourmand that's perfect for christmas time - and even has similarities with A*Men or Pure Malt - look no further. For a price of around €20-25 online this is a no brainer.
