The Story

Launched in 2011 and crafted by Dominique Ropion and Laurent Bruyère, The Taste of Fragrance Alien by Mugler is a composition that marries the sweetness of caramel with the depth of woody and amber notes. The fragrance opens with a rich, luscious caramel that immediately draws you in, followed by the warm floral embrace of jasmine. As it settles into its base, cashmere wood and amber provide a luxurious, enveloping warmth, while musky and balsamic undertones add an intriguing complexity.

Application Tips

Apply this fragrance sparingly to let its layers unfold naturally. The caramel note is particularly prominent initially but quickly gives way to a warm, enveloping blend of woods and musk. Best experienced in cooler evenings when its rich and inviting character shines through.

Dominique Ropion portrait

Dominique Ropion is a daring perfectionist, a true inventor. The risks he takes are invariably accompanied by a relentless pursuit of exact olfactory balance and flawless composition. His perfumes are like great architectural feats: in the same way that a bridge, whose seemingly miraculous suspension of weight is in fact a harnessing of counteracting forces, Dominique often balances excessive doses of powerful ingredients with meticulously-measured, subtler accords, until the composition holds up on its own. A good perfume, he likes to say, must always appear obvious.
