Mugler cannot and will not get past the trash. Fragrances like Angel, Amen, Alien and their countless flankers smelled as radiated as hazardous waste from the repository, but always with chic. There's something about that
So now a Mugler from the 80s blousons, bloated like garishly colorful blousons from the 80s, but by no means bad cologne series with lavender (sic!): tailor-made for me? The scent leaves me amused but perplexed - and that after several tests.
Actually, there is a lavender note, but anyone who thinks that it should smell even remotely natural has done the math without Mugler: a bit squeaky, shrill, wildly fruity, finely sour and that doesn't change too much to the heart. At best, the somewhat powdery note afterwards reminds us that there is also something like ambergris in it. Could become increasingly plausible in the drydown.
Why do I like it anyway? The scent will always remain a cologne, which is not a matter of course for a lavender scent, and that's why the comparison below with the remix Cologne by 4711 from 2019 cannot be dismissed, even though the two are not twins at all. The idea is always the same: Colgone (I like), a bit more (Mugler), a bit less (4711) synthetic, lavender somehow (I like) and a warmer, slightly powdery base. Strangely enough I have to think of swimwear from the 70s and how the smell (highly stressed synthetic fibre, funny): synthetic fabric.
According to the manufacturer, it should transport you into a universe of tranquillity and spirituality: a little high.
The result is something very suitable for everyday use in the summer that can be used in the morning for the office, at noon for cooling off and in the evening for the pizzeria. Just not for the opera, please.
