There are perfumes you casually spray before a coffee run, and then there’s Alien by Mugler – the perfume that doesn’t just enter the room, it owns it. Alien isn’t here to be cute or blend into the crowd. It’s bold, it’s powerful, and it has that love-it-or-hate-it energy that keeps it unforgettable.
Oh, and the bottle? Let’s just take a moment. 💜 A faceted amethyst gem that looks like it came straight from a sci-fi movie set. It sits on my shelf like royalty, silently flexing, even when I don’t reach for it as often as I probably should.
The Scent Breakdown
Opening: A blast of jasmine that is anything but shy. This isn’t your fresh, delicate floral – this jasmine has attitude.
Heart: That rich amber starts to glow, adding warmth and depth, like sunlight cutting through stained glass.
Base: A strong woody note that grounds it all, making sure Alien doesn’t float away into outer space.
It’s radiant, mysterious, and honestly… kind of bossy. One spray too many and you’ll clear a room – but in the best way.
Longevity & Projection
Let me be real: Alien sticks around longer than I do at a sale rack in Zara. A couple of spritzes in the morning and by evening it’s still holding on, whispering, “I’m not done with you yet.” Projection? Oh, she’s loud. People will notice, and that’s exactly the point.
When to Wear Alien
This isn’t your “grab a latte and run errands” perfume. Alien is more like:
✨ Date night but make it dramatic
✨ Events where you want to be unforgettable
✨ Those days when you need to unleash your inner villain energy
Basically, if you want to make an entrance, Alien’s your girl.
My Relationship with Alien
Here’s where it gets personal. I love Alien… but I don’t grab it all the time. She’s like that one stunning dress in your wardrobe – not for everyday wear, but when you put it on, you feel like you’ve levelled up in life. And honestly, I love that about her.
Alien is unapologetic. It doesn’t try to please everyone. And maybe that’s why it feels so empowering when I do wear it. It’s me saying, “Yeah, I’m here, and you’re going to remember it.”
Final Thoughts
If you’re looking for a safe, everyday scent – Alien might not be it. But if you want a perfume that turns heads, sparks conversation, and makes you feel like the main character of a space opera? Mugler delivered.
Even if I don’t reach for it every day, I’ll never stop admiring that little purple gem on my shelf. 💜
@revertessencemel My thoughts on Alien by @Mugler ✨ it’s a classic in my collection but I’d definitely sample it first before buying because it’s a love or hate kinda perfume. It’s mysterious and floral. Have you got it in your collection? #alien #mugleralien #perfumereview #fragrancetok #perfumetiktok ♬ original sound - Melissa✨🩷
