The men's version of the Alien Mugler fragrance is a perfume signed by Thierry Mugler that has been drawing us into its mysterious and sacred universe for 13 years now. Until now, it had been exclusively a feminine juice, a sort of sacred stone with multiple virtues.
Alien-Man by Thierry Mugler, a woody and floral juice
This year 2018 was marked by a profound upheaval within the Thierry Mugler collection. The designer decided to reinterpret one of his greatest feminine perfumes to turn it into a virile, masculine juice. Today, Alien rises from its ashes to our great delight and is now aimed at men. Preserving its former singularity, it appears in a brand new amethyst bottle, resembling a genuine jewel. As if emerging straight out of darkness and flooding the world with a new light, it already promises to captivate with its highly contrasted scent.
Alien-Man, a play of light and shadow
Alien-Man by Thierry Mugler is an unexpected fragrance that takes us toward a still unexplored olfactory territory. Its sillage is immediately identifiable and its accords are particularly original. Alien-Man seems to be born of a contrast and plays on extremes. It reveals a particularly explosive scent. Yet it stirs disquiet, as if to better highlight the sensuality of the men who wear it. It nonetheless remains very harmonious and displays an incomparable spirit. Its extraordinary magnetism combines the leather family with the floral family. Leather is present here in overdose and collides with almost feminine scents. In this case, the osmanthus flower is also very powerful. It reveals here its apricot-like breath. Thus, the animalic sensuality of leather immediately becomes more velvety. The result is an almost carnal encounter. The masculinity of Alien-Man also resurfaces from a very woody base of smoky beechwood. An aromatic freshness of anise reinforces the vivacity of the whole. Finally, white amber completes the recipe of this vibrant and distinctive essence.
Jean-Christophe Hérault, perfumer of Alien-Man
To craft this extraordinary fragrance, the house of Thierry Mugler called upon perfumer Jean-Christophe Hérault. It must be said that the creator is very close to the universe of Thierry Mugler himself. A gentle dreamer as well, he possesses a highly developed artistic sense. Jean-Christophe Hérault confides that he transforms everything around him into a form of art. With him, everyday life becomes an imaginary world charged with sensoriality. Jean-Christophe Hérault explains that he turned very early toward the world of perfumery to put his dreams in a bottle. Endowed with boundless imagination, he defies trends and takes us toward olfactory territories that are always eloquent and still little known. Jean-Christophe Hérault delivers here a new olfactory dream. It should also be noted that Alien-Man is not his first collaboration with Thierry Mugler, since he is also behind Alien Flora Futura, another olfactory variation from the same collection, aimed on that occasion at a feminine clientele.
