Alien – back again

No fragrance conjures such strong reactions from people as Thierry Mugler Alien. It’s the Marmite of the fragrance world. Love it or loathe it, there is a new version in town.

 Alien Essence Absolue is a richer, more sensual version of the original. The top sees a heady note of  White Jasmine that quickly gives way to a sensual heart of Cashmere Wood and Orris Root. The base is a deep, aromatic melody of Black Vanilla Pod, Incense, Myrrh and Amber.

It’s available in 30ml, R715 and 60ml, R996 EDP bottles; a 60ml Refillable EDP bottle, R795, and there is also a Body Balm, R495.
