Alien by Mugler is a bold, glowing white floral with a warm amber core. Jasmine sambac leads, rich and slightly indolic, far from the delicate side of jasmine. Cashmeran adds a soft, woody haze in the middle, like cashmere warmed by the sun, and amber gives the base its golden depth. With so few listed notes it is simple on paper and dramatic in character. It came out in 2005 and is worn mostly by women who want a scent with a strong signature. Voters keep it for winter and for night-time. The vote leans long-lasting on longevity and strong on sillage, so one spray usually does the job. Try a 3ml decant for a few evenings before you buy the bottle.

The community verdict
A white floral with amber warmth, Alien moves from jasmine sambac through cashmeran to amber. Staying power divides between long-lasting and exceptionally long-lasting; the largest group finds projection strong, with room-filling also reported. It suits bold winter nights and autumn evenings, but go lightly.

The house
More from Mugler
Mugler is the French fashion house Manfred Thierry Mugler launched in 1974, and its perfume has always gone for bold rather than safe. Its first scent, Angel, came in 1992 and put caramel, chocolate and vanilla at the heart of a fine fragrance, the sweet style now called gourmand. Alien followed in 2005, pairing jasmine with amber. The range still splits along those two lines. On one side sit patchouli, caramel and coconut; on the other, white flowers glowing over cashmeran and woods. Start with Alien, all jasmine and golden amber. Angel is sweet and dark, with fruit over patchouli. Alien Goddess softens things with vanilla and a powdery bloom. Angel Elixir sits between the two, white florals on a vanilla and wood base.
