The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2018 by Mugler and crafted by perfumer Jean-Christophe Hérault, Mystic Aromatic is a composition that oscillates between freshness and warmth. The fragrance opens with an aromatic and fresh-spicy accord, where the sharpness of green notes and the invigorating quality of herbs create a dynamic beginning. As it evolves, balsamic and amber elements emerge, adding depth and a subtle sweetness that contrasts beautifully against the initial crispness.
Apply two sprays to your pulse points for an optimal experience. The green and aromatic top notes are bright but fleeting, so layering with a touch of the balsamic base can extend its presence throughout the day.
