Recently, I fell head over heels in love with Aura Eau de Parfum and the lighter version "Aura (Eau de Toilette) | Mugler," and I started stocking up because this fantastic fragrance is no longer being produced for reasons that are beyond comprehension. Since Aura has become my new signature scent, I naturally became curious about its delicately enchanting little sister "Aura (Eau de Parfum Sensuelle) | Mugler." It was hard to find her at a reasonable price, but once again, she came to me almost "by chance."
I was a bit apprehensive (blind buy) that Aura Eau de Parfum Sensuelle might not measure up to her big sisters. But my fears were unfounded - the scent is a true midsummer night's dream! Light and buoyant like the wondrous dance of fairies on a magical full moon night, infused with the intoxicating, milky yet fresh sweetness of hard-to-define flowers that must come straight from the realm of elves. At first, the fragrance exudes a clear, almost innocent sensuality that immediately unfolds into a lush, hypnotic, yet by no means overwhelming intensity. This must be how the crown of pink, white, and green flowers smells, which the Elven Queen herself wears upon her radiant head! Angelic and ethereal, yet also tantalizing and sophisticatedly animalistic.
You feel carried and uplifted by the scent, the boundaries between reality and the dream world you are transported to blur, and the wearer transforms into a fabulous, worship-worthy, and irresistibly seductive being.
To conclude with Tolkien: If Aura Eau de Parfum would appeal to the breathtakingly beautiful and capricious King of the Woodland Elves, Thranduil himself, I can very well imagine Aura Eau de Parfum Sensuelle on the legendary Lady Galadriel, gliding weightlessly over the soft moss carpet in her forest realm, dressed in a sparkling white gown that reflects the starlight, accompanied by an enchanting fragrance that intoxicates the senses and flatters the soul. Kissed by this luminous, silky shimmering, and mysteriously pulsating scent, I feel a bit like an enchanted Elven princess myself. And don’t we all want to be that from time to time? It is a sin that the fragrance is no longer being produced!
