Aliens Mugler for Women and Some Nuances Trimmed
I haven't written a comment here in a long time - today I thought this one deserved a comment...:) Not that other fragrances don't deserve it, but this one has particularly captivated me. I'm not writing because the scent is extraordinarily wearable for men or exceptionally beautiful. Unisex here is, for me, a slip-up; the fragrance represents pure femininity.
I find it funny that the scent reminds me of a now legendary fragrance here - namely Mugler's original Alien, the first version for women. HOWEVER: While the original Alien came across as very clumsy and loud, this fragrance is the noble, quiet, and graceful variant. The scent notes are very (!) similar, but they don't impose themselves like the original Alien.
However, I almost only smell the typical Mugler DNA here, which indeed reminds me of an excess of Jasmine Sambac. The Heliotropia is also a sea of flowers, but combined with other white blossoms and a creamy white pear. I find it nice that the jasmine significantly decreases in the scent progression, making it still wearable for men.
In the office, it's an absolute no-no-no-go - I will definitely wear the Heliotropia a few times in my free time...:) After many of the recent creations from Byredo left me somewhat disappointed, I really like this one...:)
