Are there any perfumes you hate, hate, hate? Mine is Thierry Mugler Angel. In theory, I should like this perfume. It's in the same category as ones I love like Dior Hypnotic Poison. I like warm spicy perfumes in general. But this one just turns to something awful on me. It smells like a mix of tobacco, spice, and dirt. There is zero sweetness whatsoever.
I'm thinking it might just be my body chemistry. I have a friend who loves this one. And it's supposed to have a cloying sweetness to it with notes I would like such as chocolate, caramel, honey, vanilla, and cotton candy with musk and amber. These are all things I like. The patchouli just greatly overpowers everything on me. I can handle mild patchouli like in Katy Perry's Killer Queen, but this is just so intense and ... nasty!
I really wanted to love this. The lovely folks at Thierry Mugler were kind enough to send me samples. They really were so nice when I asked. And I like Alien. I should like the notes of this. But even when I tried to wash it off, I washed and washed and washed and could not get the stink off of me. I guess that's good news if you like this fragrance and are looking for something that lasts a really long time.
Thierry Mugler Angel available at Nordstrom's for $79 for 0.8 oz.
