The superflower??
Supra Floral?
There I write in many flowery comments that I sometimes find flowery scents quite stuffy and dry, and then nevertheless test a scent, which would mean translated somehow "overfloral". So the heightening of Floral. If you want, you can also replace Supra as "Super" in this case.
Well, I don't know what to expect, because after all not all flower scents are stuffy or bad for me, no matter how much I should complain sometimes :D Yes, really, there are absolutely wonderful flower scents (of course all of them only suitable for ladies, because such scents would smell a bit strange in men... well!), but I can't think of one right now :DD
Superflowers... According to the description, the hyacinth is the main focus here and has a "fiery" temperament. And now, of course, I'm thinking fireflowers. I'm sure you know exactly where this is going. Where are the fireflowers? No, I'm not talking about nettles, even if they should burn like hell, you should make the mistake of stroking these plants :D
No... Fireflowers are often an elementary part of the... Super Mario games where Mario becomes Fire Mario after touching a fireflower and can then throw fireballs around with it. And yes,... I'm a child, no matter how old I get,... I'll probably stay a bit childish for a while... but: I don't care *ätsch* *tongue out* :DD
While the hyacinth is still building up, one can now also smell the resinous incense.
The hyacinths can be smelled better a little later now. In the background, besides the green notes, there is a floral water-like scent, by which I mean this watery floral scent, which can be smelled especially by florists, which I also find quite beautiful.
With time, the fragrance becomes a little sweeter, here you can clearly smell the amber. I also smell more flowery notes, but they are no longer identifiable.
Even later, it is best to smell the mix of sweet notes, hyacinths and tangy green notes reminiscent of plant juices. Towards the base, the incense becomes a little weaker again.
Much later, however, a very heavy flowery note appears, which makes me so to speak a dash through the bill, because it smells sultry and stuffy. That's not soo bad now, but still not negligible, because she is definitely noticeable.
Durable, on the other hand, it is quite good because it can be smelled on the skin for more than ten hours.
So, this was my first Les Exceptions fragrance from Mugler and I think the fragrance is okay, but neither really outstanding nor very special. Sure, tastes are different and in this day and age with over thousands of scents it is of course difficult to create something new, but still. But as I said, the fragrance isn't really bad, but I don't like the later base so much anymore because of the heavy, sultry floral notes, because they have nothing to do with the actual fragrance.
Otherwise, it smells well up to the base of hyacinth and green notes and is therefore a nice, summery fragrance. The later base makes the fragrance more autumnal. With its many floral notes, the fragrance is also more feminine rather than unisex.
The fragrance is not as fiery as described in the manufacturer's description, but warm because of the incense. So if you can test, one or the other could like the scent :)

And did you know that Mario's last name was supposed to be Mario as well? So his name is Mario Mario, his brother is Luigi Mario! DD

The fragrance:
One immediately smells greenish-sweet notes at the beginning, which remind me first of hazelnuts instead of hyacinths. The flowery notes only appear gradually. The hazelnuts just mentioned do not last long and disappear as quickly as they have come. While the hyacinth is still building up, one can now also smell the resinous incense.
The hyacinths can be smelled better a little later now. In the background, besides the green notes, there is a floral water-like scent, by which I mean this watery floral scent, which can be smelled especially by florists, which I also find quite beautiful.

The Sillage and the shelf life:
So I must say that the fragrance is not very weak, but as strong as the above average ratings with seven points here indicate, I do not feel it now again. It can be smelled well from close up, but not further away.Durable, on the other hand, it is quite good because it can be smelled on the skin for more than ten hours.
The bottle:
In contrast to Mugler fragrances such as A*Men or Alien/Angel, the bottles are somewhat simpler, but despite their simplicity they still look pretty good. The bottle is rectangular and transparent with a rectangular and transparent (and crystalline) lid. On the side of the flacon, a chrome-plated metal band leads from the bottom upwards to the other side of the flacon. This is also continued on the lid. The label is white and somewhat simple, but matches the bottle. Even with the simpler design, the bottle looks good and even a little futuristic-modern. So, this was my first Les Exceptions fragrance from Mugler and I think the fragrance is okay, but neither really outstanding nor very special. Sure, tastes are different and in this day and age with over thousands of scents it is of course difficult to create something new, but still. But as I said, the fragrance isn't really bad, but I don't like the later base so much anymore because of the heavy, sultry floral notes, because they have nothing to do with the actual fragrance.
