Extraordinary
Alien Eau Extraordinaire, yes, it is different from the other Aliens and that is a good thing. For me, it is the most beautiful, summery Alien in the Alien range.
It may dance out of the Alien line, but anyone who doesn't recognize the Alien here doesn't know the Alien.
The Extraordinaire is a light, floating, golden Alien. Just a delicate, fresh, and beautiful veil of scent. Radiantly bright like the sun. Light as the first sunbeam in the morning that tickles your nose.
If Mugler hadn't been so generous with the samples, I wouldn't have tested it.
But it starts off so wonderfully fresh with citrus notes and neroli. Beautiful and bright orange blossoms exude their delicate and sweet scent here. It is a feast for the senses and very uplifting - simply enchanting, spring-like, and cheerful.
I also detect a delicate salty note among the summery flowers.
I feel like I'm at the Mediterranean, where the air is laden with orange blossom aromas and salt.
Now I can hardly wait for this year's surely very hot summer to refresh myself with Alien Eau Extraordinaire again and again.
The woody base, which is underpinned by clean amber, is completely unobtrusive and very pleasant. The scent radiates pure freshness and zest for life.
In my opinion, it is more of an Eau de Cologne, aimed at refreshing and clearing the head briefly and cooling down.
The longevity is quite short at 4-5 hours for an Alien. But the regular Eau de Toilette doesn't last longer either.
For a Cologne, as it smells to me, the longevity is good.
I definitely think it's worth the price for this summer.
In the first hour, I like it the best. The orange blossoms are excellent and wonderfully executed here.
Sometimes after showering, I also need a scent that immediately exudes its most beautiful aroma. One that I don't want to wait one to two hours for it to develop. This is the case here.
It is a wonderfully balancing and harmonizing scent for the senses.
It truly dances out of the Alien line and stands out wonderfully.
The sun goddess from the advertisement seems a bit frightening and cool to me. She also appears somewhat arrogant and distant. However, the scent feels very heartfelt to me. It hits me directly in the heart and feels harmonious, gentle, and delicate.
At the moment, Alien Eau Extraordinaire is my number one. I received it for my birthday and am very happy about it. Mugler has done a good deed for me.

Oh, that wasn't meant to be offensive :) (my own critique, like HP from Dior, is also really bad on me) But sometimes I'm amazed by skin chemistry and how much it can affect things. For example, Un Jardin sur le Nil smells great on me, but on my colleague, it smells like cheap dish soap.

Harmonious, gentle, and delicate? Really? Even my boyfriend, who doesn't really notice scents, let alone have an opinion about them (he rarely says, "Oh, you smell good"), picked up on a strangely penetrating note in the air...

You've described it perfectly. A summer alien! It's a shame I'm only discovering it now that summer is over...

It smells a bit similar to Tresor Midnight Rose on my colleague.

What a lovely comment! Now my curiosity is piqued: citrus scents, Mediterranean, salt, and orange blossom... sounds amazing!

Just asking the group: How does this Alien compare to the 2013 "Aqua Chic"? :)

Well written. I'll test it when I get the chance. It really seems to be made for you. I wouldn't have expected such a delicate scent. How wonderful that it evokes such beautiful feelings for you.

I'm really not a fan of Alien, so I went into the test without any particular expectations. But I was pleasantly surprised by how much I like it. Maybe because it's not typical Alien...

Regarding the longevity, I would wait until summer. In the heat, you can definitely smell it much longer. It's a summer scent, completely. :-)

I completely agree with you, I think it's great for everyday wear :) It's just a shame about the longevity (only two hours for me).
