10 Best Mugler Perfumes for Women

by

French fashion designer Thierry Mugler has had long success producing a haute couture line of clothing and lifestyle items. Perhaps his most successful and most popular contribution to the world of fashion is his fragrance line. Two of his perfumes, Alien and Angel, are seemingly always among the top sellers for women.

Why? They are well-made with unique notes and they of course also smell great. For this list, I want to present to you the best smelling fragrances from the Thierry Mugler line and the top variants of the Alien and Angel names.

Note: This brand goes through a lot of flankers, some perfumes may be discontinued between updates. But, you can usually find them at discounters.

What are the Best Mugler Perfumes?

Best Seller

Thierry Mugler Alien Refillable Eau de Parfum Spray, 3 Ounce– Alien is an interesting fragrance for women, as the name itself suggests, there is something exotic. foreign, or even other worldly about this scent. Floral and woody notes blend together and top it off with a kick of spice.

It’s sweet and loud and a perfume that really shines in the wintertime. Alien is led by jasmine as the floral, surrounded by warm amber, and with a woody base. This fragrance lets itself be known, can overwhelm some, but others swear by its power and cannot do without this Mugler creation.

This is the most popular Mugler fragrance, along with Angel, so it’s likely the one that you already know. While it has become widely used, Alien is still a very good fragrance, and has its place on this list without question.

If Alien is too much for you, you could also try the much more tolerable Alien Fusion. It’s too similar for me to give it, it’s own entry on the list, but Fusion is excellent.

Classic Powerhouse

Thierry Mugler Angel Eau De Parfum Spray, 1.7 Ounce– A strong, daytime fragrance that has been one of the best selling perfumes for quite a long while. Angel is fresh and intriguing.

However, it does bring the power, and the longevity is incredible. The opening is sweet with coconut, a dark chocolate, and fruit notes (mainly melon).

It dries down with a lot of patchouli. Very gourmand in the beginning, a highly famous scent. Not really one for those who want something light or need a perfume for a warmer climate.

The aroma has become very familiar, but it’s still a great wear in the right situation. Notes include: vanilla, sandalwood, and patchouli,  fresh citrus, melons, peaches, and plums.

Top Newer Release

Aura EDT– This is another interesting fragrance from Mugler, that won’t have universal appeal, but is still a really good scent. There is an EDT and EDP version. I actually liked the EDT version better for a long while, but testing out the EDP again for the site…I’ve come to prefer it.

Aura is not only unique but it performs very well, also. The EDP opens with orange blossom, a dewy forest aroma, and plenty of rhubarb. Yes, this one is different and surprisingly awesome.

It comes across as a bit minty, green fresh, with orange blossom and vanilla. It can fit in during a variety of seasons, and is one that is weird enough to stand apart. Aura EDP Review

A Top Goddess

Alien Goddess Intense– Ok, the Alien Goddess series has been a focus for Mugler over the past few years. To me, Goddess Intense still has the top spot out of the bunch.

I should say that it isn’t far and away better than the original or Supra Florale, in terms of how much I like each. So, preference is really going to play a role when choosing from these perfumes.

This one is heavier, with a bigger dose of vanilla to pair up top with a coconut note and a light spritzing of bergamot. The first two notes will be the main attractions with Goddess Intense, alongside, jasmine.

Vanilla, jasmine, and benzoin will be more of the tail end of the wear, as the coconut fades. Really good performance and a deeper version of the original. Alien Goddess Intense review

Pina ColAngel

Angel Phantasm– This is a warm and beachy version of the familiar Angel DNA. What did Mugler add? A helping of coconut, that is especially prevalent early on in the mix.

The effect is that Phantasm puts out the energy of tanning on the shore while sipping a pina colada. Yet, it still does have the patchouli note which becomes more prominent in the dry down.

Also, joining is a light pineapple note in the early stages and a tiare flower in the mid, to help further sell the tropical kind of vibe. Still, it’s actually kind of dark with how it presents at times. Maybe that’s representing the black bottle? Nice performance.

 

Summertime Wear

Angel Sunessence by Thierry Mugler Light Eau-de-toilette Spray for Women, 1.70-Ounce– A bright and sweet smelling fruity patchouli perfume, which settles down beautifully, with a bit of time. Bergamot and red berries give, this Angel a different and less intense feel than the original.

It can start out somewhat tart, but it doesn’t ever have a super heavy sillage to it. There is a great honey note and blackberry, which begins to emerge later in the dry down. Still, a great performance, just not as loud as Angel.

Most Unique Mugler

Womanity by Thierry Mugler for Women, Eau de Parfum Refillable Spray, 2.7 Ounce– A wholly feminine and utterly unique fragrance from Thierry Mugler. Womanity has its sweet and woodsy moments which creates something almost unforgettable. 

You probably gotta love fig, to truly appreciate this one, because it is full of the stuff from wood to fruit.

Beyond that, is a salty caviar note…which yeah, I said this one was unique. It is another strong scent from Mugler, however, this one, is going to be much more niche in terms of how many folks will enjoy it. 

Fresh with a woody, marine dry down. Very hit or miss with people, but I appreciate the brand taking chances and putting this on the market.

Light and Sweet

Thierry Mugler Angel Innocent Eau de Parfum Spray, 2.6 Ounce– Subtle, light, and airy. This perfume lives up to the Innocent moniker with notes of pure mandarin, honey,  almond, exotic fruits,  rich musk, and amber.

It’s citrus notes lead the top, but is flanked by berries, and a semi-tart black currant. It’s sweet and nutty and an overall beautiful wear. 

Kind of a departure for Mugler, when they are known for bold scents. Innocent takes the opposite tact and does it well. I think that this has been discontinued, but bottles are still around online.

The Explosive Angel

Angel Nova– I’m adding Nova to the list after trying it in 2021. Now, from the jump, it’s probably not a fragrance that everyone will enjoy. 

The raspberry and litchi notes are juicy and bold. To my nose, it also seemed like there was mango in the mix as well. Up top, it is all about these juicy fruit notes. However, it will get drier, floral, and a bit spicy.

The Damask rose is the leader in the final stages. The tropical aroma is nearly gone and Nova has an earthy quality to it. Rose, benzoin, and a earthy/dirtiness. I really dug it. Angel Nova Review

Fun, Tropical Option

Angel Iced Star– Angel Iced Star isn’t a super complicated fragrance, but it is one that is enjoyable, with a somewhat pina colada-like aroma. The pineapple note is the lead here, but there is also a good deal of coconut in the mix.

Then, there is the patchouli and vanilla notes, giving this one a full sweet and tropical gourmand profile. It’s delicious and a really nice option for standing out in the warmer months.

The pineapple kicks things off with a great juiciness, before it is more evenly split with the vanilla and coconut. This is just a fun and youthful sort of perfume, not serious or anything at all formal.

7 Best Paris Hilton Perfumes

by

There has been plenty of things which have been said or written about Paris Hilton either good, bad, or down right ugly. One thing that should be said and admitted is that she isn’t as dumb as she’s played up on TV in the past and she has kind of quietly amassed a very strong brand over the past 10 years.

Her fragrance line for both men and women have been a resounding success by any metric and despite the public perception of her personally, her fragrances are actually very well made. I have put together this list of what I consider to be the top 7 best perfumes by Paris Hilton.

Favorite Paris Hilton Perfumes

The pace of the releases has slowed greatly over the years, but she is still releasing new scents now and then. Usually, the newer ones do start out at a higher price point before being available at discounters.

Popular Choice

Just Me Paris Hilton By Paris Hilton For Women. Eau De Parfum Spray 3.4 Ounces– Very clean and light scent with floral and vanilla notes. Just Me has a feminine charm and elegance that will draw plenty of positive attention.

While it does have that vanilla and even raspberry notes, it isn’t a very sweet fragrance for the most part. Pink pepper gives you a warm spice, with further sandalwood, and other woody ingredients during the dry down.

Plus, a prominent rose, leading the floral end of things. The wood is at the heart and supports the raspberry top note, before the floral notes take over that role. Just Me Review

just me

Top Winter Fragrance

Paris Hilton Can Can Eau De Parfum Spray 3.40 oz– Can Can is a perfume that is really fun and has a highly attractive quality to it. Great for a night out. The nectarine note is wrapped in a warm amber embrace and joined by other sweet fruit notes.

It takes on a sugary sort of aroma when all paired with the musk and floral notes. Can Can plays that role of a engaging perfume on colder nights of the year.

The opening does have a somewhat tart aroma, but thereafter, it does get sweeter and the amber increases in strength. When that takes place, it has an almost cotton candy sort of aroma.

Notes include: cassis, clementine flower, wild orchid, nectarine, musk, orange blossom, woods, amber.

Best New Paris Perfume

Ruby Rush– This was brand spanking new for 2022, but Ruby Rush immediately ranked among the best from Paris.

This is more expensive than the others, at least initially, so she may be doing a KKW-like rebranding. Iconic was released in 2025, but this one is still better, if you can find it around.

Anyway, cherry is the star here. More like a sweet and syrupy sort. Not to the same extent as something like Lost Cherry, but it is sweet and fairly tart. This is joined by whipped cream and vanilla. So, basically a creamy cherry perfume.

Underneath that, is light floral notes and musk. Hibiscus and lily are the flowers here. Though, I didn’t find them to be ever really gaining that much of a foothold.

Underrated Scent

Tease By Paris Hilton Eau De Parfum Spray, 3.4-Ounce– Tease is an energetic and flirty fragrance that is a really great find for the price.

I really like the notes of this one and indeed all of these perfumes from Paris Hilton, they really do have unique qualities from most other fragrances and maintain simplicity.

It opens up with apple, peach, and bergamot which gives Tease a nice crisp top. Then, those notes fade, and the tuberose and jasmine notes take over.

It’s a white floral with fruity undertones and a nice sandy beach vibe going on. Notes include: Apples, Peaches, Bergamot, White Flowers, Amber And Hot Sand. 

tease

Creamy Floral 

Electrify by Paris Hilton– Electrify is another fragrance that has been released by Paris, over the past few years. This one takes a group of floral notes, led by magnolia, and pairs them up with vanilla and a bit of coconut.

But, before all of that we get a juicy fruit opening with some apple, orange, and a somewhat tropical vibe between the coconut and cyclamen.

Magnolia will be the star, but peony and rose also make an appearance. To me, the rose is pretty light and doesn’t make much of an impact. A very nice and sweet fruity floral scent, with a creamy dry down.

Light Floral Perfume

Fairy Dust by Paris Hilton for Women – 3.4 Ounce EDP Spray– A well-balanced, sweet perfume with light and airy qualities which seem to match the fragrances name. Blend of floral and fruit notes including: orange blossom, peach nectar, vanilla cream, and pink peony.

The orange blossom and peach nectar are noticeable up top and have an appealing aroma, that is surrounded by the other floral ingredients. As it moves along, Fairy Dust takes on more of a powdery quality, but not baby powder level.

Towards the middle of the wear, gardenia and peony seem to take hold, and this is a close to full-on floral scent.

fairy dust

Best Summer Perfume

Heiress by Paris Hilton for Women – 3.4 Ounce EDP Spray– Heiress is a light and fresh perfume full of fruity notes which help it to shine. The name is obviously a play on her life and fame but is a surprisingly wonderful fragrance.

It opens up with a blast of citrus and passion fruit, with a bubbly champagne note, from the opening act. It is a candy-like sweet fragrance, with some lighter clean floral notes, that come through during the middle part of the wear.

It’s not a powerful fragrance overall, but it does hold up well enough.

Notes include: Passion Fruit, Orange, Peach Granita, Vetiver, Tiare, Tonka Bean, Mimosa, Champagne, Honeysuckle, Jasmine, Dewberry, Ylang, Grenadine, Blonde Woods, Violet.

Best Versace Eros Fragrances Ranked

by

Eros has been successful as a line for Versace, both on the men’s and women’s side of things. However, the men’s line has been an absolute smash hit for the designer, and has seen more releases under the banner for more than a decade.

On this page, I wanted to keep track of the colognes that have come out with the Eros tag, and rank them in terms of how much I enjoy each (after testing and reviewing them). So, this is my list.

Favorite Versace Eros Colognes Ranked

Note: This is all of the Eros for Men fragrances as of posting, except for Najim. Since that was a special release, that I didn’t track down a bottle of.

Top Pick

Eros Parfum– This actually opens with more freshness than the citrus emphasis, found with the others. Yes, the citrus does appear at the top and its sparkling quality is pleasant, but it’s actually more subdued in the overall blend.

The familiar lemon and mandarin appear alongside that verbena-like litsea cubeba. Pepper and sage become more apparent, as does the foundation of amber and resinous notes like benzoin and elemi.

Clary sage takes the lead early on. Notably, there doesn’t appear to be much, if any, of the mint note. It seems to have been replaced by enhanced geranium and sage to produce a similar effect.

Parfum ultimately becomes an amber, vanilla, cashmeran, and vetiver blend as it reaches its conclusion. 

All in all, I think that this is the best experience out of all of them. I don’t think that it blows the others away or anything, but after coming back to each, I did slightly enjoy this more. Eros Parfum review.

Original

Eros EDT– The original Eros was one of my favorites when I was younger. Now, it’s not something that I return to all that often.

The latest bottles seem to be more like how they once were (just not as strong), after having (to my nose at least) more lemon than usual. I did pick up a bottle of Greatness by Dua, which is inspired by the 2012 batches of Eros.

Anyway, this one opens with a zesty Italian lemon note, joined by crisp, juicy green apple and the cool spice of mint leaves. 

Tonka bean and vetiver also make their presence known. Later in the dry down period, Eros truly becomes an enveloping fragrance. The ambroxan amber and a subtle geranium emerge to complement the main trio of notes.

It’s a smooth, creamy, and freshly sensual fragrance with the vanilla note reaching its absolute peak.

For this list, I still think that it’s the second best offering. Eros EDT review

Another Revision

Eros EDP– At the start, Eros EDP feels colder, sweeter, and smoother than the original EDT. One notable change is how much weaker the vetiver is in this version

The tonka bean has also been removed. While I typically enjoy tonka bean paired with vanilla, I actually prefer the vanilla standing alone in this particular fragrance.

The cedar notes receive significant emphasis and really emerge after 30 to 45 minutes of wear. This next phase brings out those woody elements while the geranium and sage begin to recede.

At this point, the citrus becomes quite faint.  Finally, the mint and vanilla take center stage, accompanied by some apple and the cedar. The most significant change throughout the remaining wear time is how much the Ambermax begins to develop.

When I first tried this, the opening act almost made this my favorite Eros. But, that was short-lived. The back half was kind of disappointing, the Ambermax ruins it for me. Still pretty good, but it never took the top spot. Eros EDP review

Burning Red

Eros Flame– I considered swapping this ahead of the eau de parfum, because they’re basically interchangeable to me. I purchased this as soon as it was released way back when and never became too big of a fan of Flame.

It’s solid. The initial formulation’s performance was insanely good, also. Last few times that I’ve tried it, it wasn’t nearly as strong.

The tangerine and lemon combination creates a very bright and juicy opening. More tangerine, than lemon. This becomes especially apparent when the emerging vanilla and tonka bean create that smooth, creamy aroma.

Versace describes the citrus pairing as part of a chinotto accord. The pepper here isn’t intensely spicy and probably doesn’t match the strength of the mint in the original. 

Overall, I really like the opening sequence here too. The citrus and vanilla/tonka bean combination feels familiar and there’s a certain effervescent quality to the entire experience.

As it develops, Flame adopts many outdoorsy and woody elements, sharing some characteristics with the original even during this stage. Cedar, vetiver, oak moss and geranium all carry over from the original formula.

But, as with Eros EDP, I’m not too in love with this one past the opening. For some people, this is their favorite Eros. I think the reviews of this have gotten better over time, but it just doesn’t fully click with me. Eros Flame review

Summer Vibe

Eros Energy– Energy is another of these Versace fragrances that I bought, as soon as it came out. And…it’s my least favorite of the bunch.

It’s not terrible, it’s just okay.

Eros Energy is as a heavily citrus-focused fragrance. It incorporates numerous fruits: lime, green mandarin, orange, lemon, grapefruit, and bergamot, plus the tart blackcurrant berry.

For me, Energy presents its aromas in distinct waves. Initially, I get a blend primarily of lemon, grapefruit, and bergamot. Then lime, orange, and some blackcurrant emerge. When it finally settles, it becomes more of a lemon/bergamot/grapefruit/orange grouping.

Is it purely citrus? No, there’s subtle spiciness from the pink pepper note. I detect some patchouli as well, though that appears more after an hour or so of wear.

The main attraction beyond the citrus elements is the musk note.

But, it’s nothing special. I’ll wear it once and like it. Then the next time, I find it annoying. It’s a good enough summer scent, if you get a discounted price, though. Energy review

Versace Eros vs Eros Flame Comparison

by

Versace Eros has been one of the most popular men’s fragrances of this decade. It really was only a matter of time before Versace, released a flanker fragrance of it, and did so with the late 2018 release of Eros Flame.

Obviously, I had to get a bottle of Eros Flame to try it out, and also to do a head to head with the original. Which of them smells better? Does Flame have great performance, like the original? Does it come close to or actually surpass Eros?

Note: I’ve been updating this page since 2018. Documenting the changes with each and my changes in preference.

My review: Eros Flame

Opening

Versace Eros opens up with a zesty note of lemon that is paired with juicy green apple and a refreshing mint note. It is quite intense and fresh, later to be joined by vanilla, tonka bean, and a bit of vetiver.

The combination of these notes, gives Eros a slight, chocolate-like undertone.

Update: With modern bottles of Eros, I do get more of the lemon note in the mix, than I previously had. It kind of throws the balance off. It’s not as good to me. So, it’s a lot closer to a tie nowadays, versus being a clear cut favorite.

Eros Flame has a very similar opening to the original. However, there are distinct differences. Noticeably, the mint and green apple notes are not there.

Instead, the lemon is joined by tangerine, a chinotto accord, and black pepper for the spice. It also has the vanilla and tonka bean.

Which is better? While I really do like the addition of the tangerine in Eros Flame, as I think that it smells great, I still prefer the original and that awesome mint note.

How it plays off of the lemon and apple, was always intriguing to my nose.

Update 2: Here in 2024, Eros EDT is back to smelling more like it used to. Eros Flame is less citrusy than before, I’m getting more rose along with the chinotto. It’s nice. Almost made me flip this category to Flame.

Edge: Eros

Projection

Eros has become very well known for its sillage over the years. It’s always been a fragrance that you could spray a couple of times and be set.

Does Flame match up to that? It does actually.

The first time I sprayed in on my skin, I definitely noticed how strong it could be, and its ability to project was great. I really don’t notice a difference between them.

Update: Newer bottles of Eros don’t seem to have the same power. Flame now has the better performance. That power really came through with the initial Flame bottles. I don’t believe it has lost a step, as of this update.

Update 2: Flame is now somewhat weaker than before. Still has the advantage, however.

Edge: Flame

Longevity

Again, these two share so much of that same fragrance DNA, that their performance is near identical for me.

I can get into the double digit total in hours of wear with either of these fragrances. Performance is not an issue for Flame.

Update: Longevity is also not quite as good with newer Eros bottles. So, Flame has a bigger lead here.

Update 2: Eros Flame still has the advantage. Neither hits double digits in terms of hours worn, for me anymore.

Edge: Flame

Versatility

Both of these fragrances are mainly colder weather scents. Springtime is viable for either but I would avoid the high heat and humidity of the summer months.

These are mostly nightlife or casual fragrances, but not bad in more formal settings, if you go light. This is another category, in which they occupy the same space, as to be expected.

Probably not going to be a daily wear for a professional, but either could do so for a younger guy.

Edge: Push

Overall Scent

OK, so, are these two the same exact fragrance? No, not really. The distinctions become more pronounced during the dry down periods of each.

Yes, the opening for both are quite similar, with only the aforementioned alterations.

Eros Flame is actually a nice change of pace. The dry down of Flame is much more woody with a combo of cedar and sandalwood. Also, rosemary is a prominent part of the composition of Flame.

There is still a ton of overlap in the base notes, but the amount used of each changes. I think that the cedar and geranium are more heavily used in Flame, than in the original.

Plus, there is a very slight rose note, that peaks through at times in Flame; I find it to be a cool touch.

What you get ultimately with Flame? The citrus top led by tangerine with tonka bean and vanilla. This sits on top of a base of cedar, geranium, rosemary, and sandalwood. It reminds you of the original, but still separate enough.

Which is better? I’m still riding with the original most of the time, if I had to pick between the two. I own bottles of each of them and have been going heavy with Flame, as of late, for review purposes.

In the future, I will probably alternate between them, when I want to go with an Eros scent.

Update: Yeah, I’ll stick with Eros before Flame. Even with somewhat of a reformulation and weakening of the original it is still better. Flame has great performance, but after the initial citrus burst and  chinotto, it tends to give me a headache. I really started to never want to wear it.

Update 2: I like what I’m getting out of the modern Eros Flame, in terms of aroma. Feels more balanced and doesn’t have such an overwhelming dry down like my original bottle had. If Eros EDT, was still to strong with the lemon, I might have changed this to Flame. But, I’m still going with the original Eros.

If you liked the original, you’ll probably be into Flame as well. If you hate Eros, this one isn’t going to win you over.

Do you need a bottle of each? Probably not.

I don’t believe Flame does anything to surpass the original, but is a solid addition to the line, that can give you a bit of a different feel.

My Video Review of Eros Energy

Here’s my initial YouTube review. The full written review continues below and will be updated over time. But, if you want to watch a video instead:

My Full Review

Here’s how Versace describes it: a unique fragrance with powerful silage and a long-lasting presence. Love, energy, and desire are at the core of the creation, inspired by the breathtaking beauty of the Mediterranean coast. 

Eros Energy is very much a citrus based fragrance. There’s a whole lot of those fruits involved here: lime, green mandarin, orange, lemon, grapefruit, and bergamot. Oh, and, the tart blackcurrant berry.

For me, Energy presents its aromas in waves. First, we get a mix of mostly: lemon, grapefruit, bergamot. Then: lime, orange, and even some blackcurrant.

When it settles? More of a lemon/bergamot/grapefruit/orange grouping.

Is it just citrus? No, there is a faint spiciness coming from the pink pepper note. I do get some patchouli in there as well, but that’s more after an hour or so.

The main attraction other than the citrus, is the musk note. It’s the most prominent, along with the amber, which seems to be present in almost all of the Eros fragrances now.

Energy isn’t a super complicated fragrance. The dry down is a lighter citrus and musk blend. The musk will grow more dominant the further along that you get. The patchouli and moss, add a slight woodsy air to the mix, but it’s mostly going to be about that musk and amber.

Very fresh and engaging, just not a very deep fragrance compared to others in the series.

Sillage, Longevity, and Versatility

Energy does bring a strong start. That initial 30-60 minutes, Eros Energy is something that projects itself well, while not being a heavy fragrance. It doesn’t have the same sort of density as the others like Eros Parfum.

After that, the reach will start to fade quite dramatically. On the whole, it’s pretty middle of the road, but the second half of the wear is very much a skin scent.

Longevity-wise, Eros Energy does stick around somewhere between 5-7 hours, on my skin. About what I expect from a citrus heavy summertime cologne like this.

Is it as long lasting as the previous Eros fragrances? Nope. But, that’s what I expected with this release.

Also, those last few hours of wear, Energy is basically a skin scent. You do get a bold start and it hangs around noticeably for 3-ish hours, but it is not a powerhouse sort of fragrance.

Seasonally, this one is a spring and summertime wear. Energy holds up well in the heat and humidity, during my testing of it.

The late release did take away from its use case for this year, since it comes alive in the heat. But, it should be just fine to wear on a more moderate day, as well.

This isn’t a formal sort of wear or a romantic wear. It’s casual, while being well put together. Energy doesn’t feel juvenile, but there are better options for the office.

Overall Impressions of Eros Energy

Overall, do I like Eros Energy? I like aspects of it. Overall, though, it’s pretty mid. After spending a week or so wearing it, it’s almost certainly my least favorite of the Versace Eros series.

The citrus opening, while it is intense, did grow on me. I did start enjoying wearing Energy during that first hour, especially while walking around outside.

In these late summer temperatures, Energy works quite well.

The back half? It’s fine. Musky amber with some citrus. Nothing too exciting or anything that I completely love with it.

Energy has overlap with fragrances such as: Dior Homme Cologne, Aventus Cologne, or maybe Dior Sport 2017. I’m not sure that it’s better than any of those scents, as a citrus heavy entry into the market.

It’s not necessarily worse, but I don’t know what it really provides that I cannot get elsewhere.

I’d recommend that you try it before you buy. I will be wearing Eros Energy sometimes, but I’m also glad that I purchased the smaller bottle, in order to do this review.
