About
A*Men by Mugler is a Oriental Woody fragrance for men. A*Men was launched in 1996. The nose behind this fragrance is Jacques Huclier. Top notes are Lavender, Mint, Fruity and Spicy Notes, Coriander, Green Notes and Bergamot; middle notes are Caramel, Patchouli, Honey, Milk, Cedar, Jasmine and Lily-of-the-Valley; base notes are Coffee, Patchouli, Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Benzoin, Amber, Sandalwood and Musk. Elegant and masculine woodsy note of patchouli and Atlas cedar develops after the metal accord of mint and lavender. At the end, the intensive woodsy composition turns into an explosive energy of coffee and stirax in the warm musk and Tonka surrounding.The bottle was designed by Thierry Mugler himself, and there are two variances – a shiny metal one and rubbery black. The fragrance was launched in 1996.
