The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Innocent by Mugler was launched in 1998 and crafted by Laurent Bruyère. This fragrance opens with a burst of mandarin orange and bergamot, creating an initial freshness that feels both uplifting and bright. As it develops, the scent introduces black currant and red berries, giving way to praline and almond notes that bring a comforting sweetness to the composition. The base of white musk and amber adds warmth and depth, grounding the lighter top notes in a cozy embrace.

How to wear it

One or two sprays are enough to capture its essence. The mandarin and bergamot notes last about an hour, but the sweet almond and praline linger longer, making it perfect for daytime wear when you want a fresh yet comforting scent.
