The Thierry Muegler Alien Perfumes

One of the most addictive and captivating scents ever invented is Alien by Thierry Muegler.  The newest edition is called Thierry Mugler Alien Eau Extraordinaire; this is a very sunny and positive fragrance that contains a compelling top note blend of Tunisian neroli with tea and bergamot.  The heart of the scent is the exotic Tiare flower warmed with amber.  This is a very tranquil fragrance meant to create a feeling of happiness in women.  It comes in a delicate clear bottle with a gold and diamante stopper.

One of the most impressive scents in the Alien line up is also one of its simplest. Alien Eau Luminescente was launched in 2008  as a summer scent and is composed of the Tiare flower, mandarin and white amber. The compact bottle looks like a topaz gemstone.  A wonderful variation of this scent was also launched in a bright pink bottle again in 2013 with the mandarin replaced by the sharp, luminous notes of pink grapefruit

In 2009 Thierry Mugler came out with a very strong aged version of the perfume called Alien Liqueur de Parfum that is dominated by rum notes along with the jasmine, woody accords and amber. This Alien perfume that comes in a very compact flask that looks like a solid crystal, is aged in oak casks.

A very interesting scent was Taste of Fragrance that was released in the fall of 2011. This was a fragrance composed by Master French Chef Helene Darozze.  She added caramel and Sambac jasmine to notes of cashmere, wood and white amber.

The big news in 2012 was the Alien Aqua Chic Eau de Toilette that was made of ginger water, lemon verbena freesia and warm notes of wood and amber.  It was marketed in a crystal flacon as a pale lilac liquid.

All love the Alien perfumes are based on the original scent that first came out in 2005. It came in a purple bottle that looked like a large sparkling amethyst. This perfume was composed of white amber at the base, woodsy notes in the middle not and sunny Indian Jasmine as the top notes.  A variation of the original was launched in a solid purple gem shaped crystal bottle.  Called Alien Pierre Initiatique Edition it contains a single top note of Tiara flower, a middle note of cashmeran (an oriental wood) and a base note of amber.

You can still find many of the variations of even the older Alien fragrances in drug stores and cosmetic stores.  Even limited edition versions have been available year after year.
