The Alien Has Charm
In a totally unexpected way, the truth is that I really like "Alien Man" by Mugler: It was my choice after testing - an afternoon with a lot of time - almost a full perfume shop.

Well... This flanker came out without much hype - at least here in Spain -, but when I finally tested it, I was pleasantly surprised.

If it doesn't become known, the better for me: I like it!

The Scent:

"Alien Man Fusion" is exactly the flanker that I expected: A fresher and lighter version which respects the original DNA and most importantly: its identity... But also, it's one that introduces something new and its own.

Here are some interesting new nuances, like the soft note of coffee and the fizz of ginger... The result is a strange composition perfectly worthy of being called "Alien", for sure…

It is a fact that those people who have described "Alien Man Fusion" as generic, either have a damaged nose or probably don't know the meaning of the word in the dictionary.

- Longevity & Projection: Moderate projection with a total longevity of 5-8 hours.

- Mood & Occasions: It can be used all year round on any occasion, although it'll stand out more in spring and early fall.

Conclusion:

The fragrance is really versatile, but it always have that special “Alien” vibe; It's fine for a change or if you like the first one.

*UPDATE: I also enjoy the latest proposal in the series - Alien Man Mirage -: It’s better to get those two first - I think -, and if you like the ‘theme” and want a different touch with that coffee note, you can then easily buy this one.

Anyway, I don't understand how much some frag-freaks complain about mainstream perfumery when Mugler releases something so daring and different and they let it go unnoticed… Hidden.

So when I leave home, I take my spaceship from the garage and fly out over the garden. I see the clouds, I breathe deeply...

... And I enjoy the ride in my old flying saucer.

They call it Gummikau on Xoataclukli
One of the first comments I read about the new "Alien Man Fusion" by Thierry Mugler was something like: "Smells generic, boring, lame, and like 95% of all today's new releases. Somewhere between Eros and Prada L'Homme." I could hardly disagree more vehemently! The original "Alien Man" was perhaps a bit too conventional and tame for an "Alien," which is why it never made it into my collection. But this fusion is definitely something special. A very curious, unique, and extraordinary scent. Everything but a bore. No off-the-shelf release. Demanding and crazy. And that's great in the gray-sweet jumble of the olfactory chemical laboratories of this world!

"Alien Fusion Man" is polarizing. That's clear. Either love it or hate it, it will certainly divide opinions. Is it a failed experiment or a bold taboo breaker? A nauseating scent or a one-of-a-kind signature? Trash or art? The age-old question, to which I still don't have a 100% answer. But I definitely lean towards a thumbs up. Simply because something is being attempted and dared again. That deserves support and a careful approach to such a being. Perhaps with a few more chances than for other fragrances. Extremely synthetic, extremely novel, extremely ballsy.

This deep blue alien hybrid is hardly identifiable. At least scent-wise. It starts with a slightly minty-dull cream, then at some point, there's a powdery artificial leather (maybe in purple?!) and later tipped coffee from Xanadu. "Alien Man Fusion" is a challenge, and I understand disapproving noses and even harsh criticisms. But I find it unique and remarkable. Closer to the angularity and "Fuck it!" attitude of "Womanity" than to its papal scent. For many, hardly wearable; for me, a real hit and Mugler. Experimental, radiant, otherworldly. Theme hit. Set. 1. With stars for explanations and warnings. Again: this chaotic alien will not please everyone, perhaps even the fewest. It can be off-putting and confusing. It has latex skin and Hubba Bubba breath. But it puts a smile on my face. At least when dosed discreetly. You don't smell a cinnamon osmanthus bouquet every day. And it's great that not all ideas are exhausted and all eggs shrunk in the designer sector. Now the audience just has to play along and at least respect this attempt. It doesn't have to be love right away.

Bottle: great sprayer, fine color, unique. Alien, after all.
Sillage: powdery, plausible, decent
Longevity: I got about 8 hours out of it. Even more, actually.

Conclusion: without a doubt an alien. This time more a mix of Thanos and the Blob. Requires getting used to and different. Bold. Hit or Miss. It works for me!

Trying to smell nice for once...
Hello and good evening, you Parfumos (and Parfumas)! So, where have you stuck your noses today? :DD

For me, it was Alien Fusion by Thierry Mugler for men. After all, since last year (that is, since 2018), the spacey Alien line is also available for us men, and it is almost certain that at least one new flanker will be released each year from now on. Whether that is good or bad, well, that can be debated, as tastes are always different. Personally, I find the women's fragrances simply fantastic, well, most of them, and yes, I know that most girls can’t stand these scents anymore, but I still think they smell so great and,… as I have mentioned a thousand times in all my comments about these fragrances, they make the girls absolutely delicious and irresistible… you know that about me, so you could also let yourselves be nibbled on, but nooo,… hmpf! :D

With the Alien fragrances for men, I could actually hope to smell just as appealing (that is, for you ladies, so that you find me nibble-worthy too :DD But again, no, one prefers DonJuanDeCats' cat,… that furry rascal… *sigh*). But enough whining for now. So how has Alien Fusion turned out, which already makes a great impression visually with its wonderful, almost neon blue color?

Well… unfortunately, the bottle is the best part of the fragrance, to put it bluntly… but at least the scent is not a complete disaster!

The Scent:
At first, I smell a slightly sweet cinnamon, a lot of ginger, and a synthetic sweet note that I can't quite identify, but I know this scent mainly from summery (and also synthetic) fragrances, for example from the summer editions of CK One fragrances. It has a kind of scent that seems to me like… believe it or not, the cone of an ice cream. It’s almost as if you were eating ice cream, having nearly devoured the scoops, and now going for the cone, which is continuously filled with the remaining ice cream. Of course, all of this might just be my perception, but I just didn’t know how else to describe this kind of sweetness. Anyway, this is not a bad scent in itself; it seems nice, but it also has a large portion of synthetics.
Unfortunately, after about ten minutes, there is a scent note that personally bothered me a lot. At times, it even smelled disgusting like… oh, this is really hard to describe… so I’ll just say it smells like a wet thumb that starts to smell gross! :D Sorry, but I couldn’t think of anything better! :DD (Maybe this is a slightly over-dosed ginger that has possibly gone a bit off in the bottle, I don’t know; if I should test the scent again, I will correct this here accordingly if it smells different in further tests!).
Fortunately, this strange scent fades away quite quickly. And especially from the base, the fragrance smells much better again. It still has that cone note, which is a kind of scent like powdery tonka bean, combined with other sweet scents, all of which, as already mentioned, smell quite synthetic. I couldn’t detect any leather, and I don’t really find the scent woody either. As mentioned, the base is nice again, but also highly insignificant, as this kind of scent is now known from everywhere.

The Sillage and Longevity:
The sillage is good; the scent can definitely be smelled on you for several hours, and despite the strange beginning, I don’t find the scent really overwhelming, as the unpleasant scent note fades away. The longevity is six to seven hours, which is above average and still good.

The Bottle:
The bottle is the real, secret star here. It has the shape of the first bottle of Alien Man. It is rectangular and quite angular, resembling a spacey crystal in a wonderful blue color. If it were light blue, I would have surely said, as a known nerd, that it would fit well in Superman's Fortress of Solitude… :D
The spray head is integrated into the bottle, as is customary with Mugler, so there is no cap. As mentioned, an excellent bottle that should also look extremely good on the shelf.

Okay,… uh no!
Alien Fusion for men is a fragrance that has turned out a bit boring (at least for a Thierry Mugler) and also smells synthetic. Well, the synthetics bother me less here, as they remind me, as mentioned, of CK One summer fragrances, which, while not really great scents, are also not so bad that one couldn’t use one or the other CK One summer fragrance (or, for example, a summer scent from Issey Miyake, etc.) during the summer. Because while you shouldn’t expect much, in my opinion, you also don’t make a mistake with these scents, as they are casual and fresh and, in that sense, quite nice. And Mugler fragrances have always had something synthetic about them, but in this scent, the synthetics are indeed more pronounced than one is used to.

It is particularly suitable as a going-out and party scent (for younger people) in spring and summer; however, Alien Fusion unfortunately costs a bit more than other fragrances like CK, Issey Miyake, Jil Sander, or other brands with similarly smelling scents, so it doesn’t seem worth it to me price-wise for this fragrance… however, you can still take a “look” at it.

I liked the first Alien Man scent better, even though the first scent was also quite synthetic. The best part of this scent is rather the excellent bottle, unfortunately nothing more. Maybe I am also disappointed for this reason, as I simply expected too much because of the beautiful bottle, and I had liked most of the Alien women's fragrances so much that I was also expecting something great for the men (…let’s see how Alien Fusion for women turns out…).
And I am also disappointed that I apparently won’t smell appealing to ladies with this, I believe at least, although… this synthetic sweetness isn’t so bad after all… come sniff me… :DD

That’s all from me, and I wish you all a lovely evening and a great weekend :)

The Fusion Release Rocks!
Summer 2018 didn't start well for Alien and me. It shocked me too much. You can read why in my Alien Man comment.

But why Fusion now?

I stumbled upon the flanker by chance. While browsing through a glossy men's magazine, there was a large advertisement for Alien Fusion with a fragrance sample inside. You tear off a small section and can smell it. I was so surprised that there was something new from Mugler that I had to rip off the section immediately and then: Wow, this stuff is awesome!

The very next day I went to the big D and sprayed it.

The scent is fresher. A bit more subdued. Less smoky.
Sillage is top.

The bottle is mega! The color is really good. The sprayer is just as good as the original. I also really like the design. Nice and symmetrical. And the new advertising campaign for the Fusion Release (Woman/Man) is just really good and one of the best I've ever seen.

No actors digging in the desert or splashing around in a pool with clothes on, but these two beautiful bottles, one sexy red, the other seductive blue. Plus, two eclipses in the background in striking colors.

Yes, I wear Alien. Yes, I am an Alien.

Deterioration Pure
The new Alien Man Fusion arrived yesterday
at my place.
Full of anticipation, I immediately showered and applied it.........
The first impression: Citrus, à la Eros. Instead of the green coffee, I perceive a fir tree scent.
Leather? Where? No trace of it
to be found.
I also don't detect any smoky
beech wood.
After 20 minutes, it resembles Spicebomb and has a slight DNA of the predecessor.
Certainly not a standout and not
even close to being as good as its predecessor.
The longevity is also not nearly
as good as the original.
Maybe it will get a bit better
as it matures.
The scent is still quite young.
The bottle is nice, yes, OK.
What a shame......

The OG was unique and interesting. This, on the other hand, is just nothing but completely boring generic synthetic sweetness.

Terrible mix of sour notes and fabric softener, tortures the nose right from the spray. I need a strong coffee after this.

I am deeply disappointed! Why does it have to smell like Pure XS, Eros, and the like? Sweet & synthetic. Or is my nose deceiving me? Strange.

Finally, a coffee scent that actually smells like coffee. That's my personal take.
At first, it's shower gel-fresh with coffee - you have to like it. I do!

It's just unpleasant.
A weird coffee note meets spicy shower gel. All from the lab.
I'll pass.

I call that a creepy encounter! Luckily, I only sprayed it on my arm. It doesn't suit my taste.
