Angel VS Angel fragrance reformulation comparison to vintage formula

[@portuguesewithmaria]

As you said, a little bit goes a long way. I'm still using the OG, and I'm still sooo afraid to try the new one. The old one is a pure heaven on my skin. Yes, there is patchouli, but it is both dirty and chocolaty. It's was a masterpiece, whoever decided to destroy it, they destroyed our dreamers. To me, it was a smell of hope, dreams, and strength. That shouldn't be messed with.

[@thefragrantician]

Hope, dreams,and,strength.....I like that!!

[@Kreitzer476]

I agree 100%!

[@JustMeAdinaMarie]

Exactly!!! I’ve had several bottles of the OG years back. Had I known that they were going to mess with it…I would have stocked up! I’m soooo upset that they reformulated it!!!!

[@SummerofKittyLove]

I wore Angel for 2 yrs in the 90’s-To me it smelled like pipe tobacco, slightly dirty skin, and angel food cake. Lasted all day! It was so different from anything I had ever smelled. Hope they bring back the original formula

[@thefragrantician]

I think it's now a shadow because mugler have changed so much

[@Sammiein]

This was my Aunt's signature and she only wore the body cream. Birthday and Christmas my uncle would give her a jar. It was strong she didn't need the spray. Without knowing the company changed hands she was telling my uncle to stop buying it online because he's getting fakes. I told her about the change in company /reformulation and it broke her little heart😢

[@thefragrantician]

Oh that's heartbreaking. How unfortunate for your uncle. The fakes are abound and scammers are always there. The body cream is so strong I know 😀💞

[@JustMeAdinaMarie]

I’ve been heartbroken for about 11-12 years…being back the OG ANGEL…PLEASE.

[@JustMeAdinaMarie]

How can I get an OG???

[@me-bh7zs]

We bought a reformulation this year for my mother and she went to return it immediately after her first use. She thought it was gone off in the store. They definitely changed the fragrance dramatically because she was upset.

[@thefragrantician]

That's sad to hear. I do know,what you mean though. It is not the,angel we used to love ❤️

[@JustMeAdinaMarie]

I’ve been upset since about 2011! Everyone LOVED ANGEL! Why the hell would they touch it?? It was BEAUTIFUL!!!! This new crap…NO THANK YOU.

[@VeronicaSays]

Ah, Gabi, the Angel queen herself! You are out her doing great work for our fragrance friends. May everyone who loves Angel be able to get their hands on an original formulation. 👍👍👍

[@thefragrantician]

Thank you Veronica. 😊 when all else fails I pick her up and feel happy and confident. 😀💞

[@DimachkaS]

Thank you for this! The Angel reforms I could live with, I still like it a lot but Alien was a criminal offense! L'Oreal butchers scents like its Halloween.

[@thefragrantician]

Yes you're,absolutely right. L oreal certainly have made angel a ghost now.

[@e.r.7785]

I agree with you, although the new version of angel is different it is still enjoyable, Alien on the other hand went from an obnoxious "in your face" sexy beast to a boring summer bed time scent, reminds me of lavender bags my mum used to put under our pillows when we were kids to have a better night sleep

[@jewelzdior7475]

I always go buy the colour the original looks a little greenish compared to the blues from the reformation I adore the original and wish they would go back to it it makes such a distinct statement and feet compliments every time I wear it live your descriptions glad I found you ❤️

[@thefragrantician]

I'm happy you found me another OG Angel lover 💕 💙

[@Jojoyou628]

I love Angel. I have so many formulas and different shapeds of bottles from different editions. I do own one from 1999. I consider myself very lucky 😍

[@actorfellow]

Think there are three versions of Angel like you said, you can really tell by the color! I have one from 2002 original batch with the brownish green color, it has a strong smoky/chocolate quality. My favorite is the 2006-2010 the greenish blue, the boxes have both Thierry Mugler and Mulger listed. I think the "middle formula" is the most balanced. The current one has a different qualify, less dark like the liquid. I do love how bright the opening is on the current formula. It's getting harder to find the original formula!

[@thefragrantician]

Yes it's,so difficult to find a vintage one now. Like you I love the 2006 version. It's quite smooth 😌 👌

[@lenathechocolatelabrador3869]

I was introduced to Angel in 2003 when I was 18, my boyfriend (now husband) bought it for me in the very first days we met. I was immediately addicted. I don't really care if it has been reformulated. To me it still smells the same. As the years pass I keep discovering new facets of this juice. It might be the reformulations, but it IS still Angel. I will keep wearing it forever and alternate with the EDT in summer on very warm days. My husband never said I smell different, so that confirms it to me.

[@thefragrantician]

You keep wearing Angel. It's duch a beauty and if your husband loves it you the more the better 😀❤❤

[@JustMeAdinaMarie]

It’s definitely different. I know MANY Angel Addicts, and they’ve all said the exact same things for years now- and none of them know each other to where they would have discussed this…different friends from different groups of friends.

[@FabFindsByKetra]

Hey Gorgeous! My friend use to wear Angel before she passed away. Every time I smell it and see a bottle, I’m reminded of her. I never wore Angel the OG but I did own a bottle of Angel Violet and I loved it.

[@thefragrantician]

You owned the violet one??? That was so so lovely you. 😍 a nice memory yo smell it from your friend ❤

[@nima_33]

I remember Angel in 1997. I was 18, too broke to be able to buy it, but I used to walk through Saks whenever I was at the Galleria and spray it on myself. It was very sweet, I could smell notes of white chocolate and cotton candy. I loved it! This year, I decided to buy a bottle. But before I did I smelled it at Macy’s… the first thought that came to my mind is “Patchouli” & that’s what I said to the SA. We both shook our heads. It’s not the Angel I remember. I don’t remember Angel smelling so strongly of patchouli. It was very gentle and sweet and chocolaty. I like this one but it’s not the original. I think Angel Muse is closer but it is still not as fluffy as the OG.

[@thefragrantician]

Yes you're absolutely spot on! I can't understand why the sweetnessxwas tamed and the patchouli was amped up. It distorted it!

[@sweetvictory5643]

I also tried Angel in 1997, in April and thought that I never smelled any fragrance better before... it smelled like HEAVEN to me. I also did not buy it, it was too expensive. Later I ordered samples on ebay and thought it was for men. Tried a sample a month ago - hated it.

[@Tiffany-kf7zu]

I tried it first in 1998, and I loved it. It quickly became my favorite. Now, I'm disappointed to know how easily a company would change the formula and pretend that it's the same. It certainly is NOT!!!!!! I'm very unhappy about this, and I wonder why they did it. Was it more expensive to make the old formula? I don't even care!! I want it back!!! Why, L'Oreal? Bring it back!!! Sorry for whining about this but it's a fact. We should write letters to Loreal and complain. Or someone needs to buy it and reproduce the ORIGINAL VERSION. I would love to buy it...

[@singerstylistjennifer1654]

I too feel Muse is a closer version: at least to my memory of the og! Fragrance Lovers- don't you remember how huge the launch was for Angel? It was Remarkable!!! I traveled all over the US in those days and ANGEL WAS EVERYWHERE!!! And every fragrance lover wanted it or had it and went totally ham with it! Glory!

[@JustMeAdinaMarie]

I want it back too, badly. I have dreams about it….that I was able to buy some. Please, please, please bring it back. I could literally cry and throw a tantrum….

[@GrlNextDoor]

I have a bottle from maybe 2002 and the juice has gone greenish, but the smell…so good. I just got a new one today and while they are definitely not the same, I’ll wear the new one and save the old one for special occasions. I love it so much. Funny thing is, my mom’s boss used to wear it in the 90’s and I thought I hated it because of how it smelled on her. It’s my favorite of all time now. Thank you so much for this video

[@thefragrantician]

Yes cherish it ,it sounds like your older angel has matured and grown up. Enjoy it 😃

[@unicornhotelskipton2045]

[@AkoyErmin]

This has been my signature scent since 1992. I’m a little sad when I smell Angel today, I still wear it, but it’s not the same. The original was much more complex. Missing today is the cotton candy and strawberries, the brown sugar and pralines, the coffee and butter chocolate. Today’s Angel is not the same.

[@zabaziomalka]

I remember going to Sephora a couple of moths ago to check out some fragnances. One of them was reformulated Angel. It was my first time with that fragnance, i didn't know what to expect. I smelled bland men's cologne and quickly forget about it. But a month ago I was about to buy a decant of an old Alien, and a girl who sold me it asked me, if I want something else because she is a collector of Thierry's fragnances. Well I wanted to try an old Angel. When my package has arrived I immediately sprayed Angel on me. "Oh dear Baphomet, how it stinks" - i thought. I smelled... A cow poo. But I left it on my wrist to see how it will develop in time. I was reading a brand new book. I was reading, and still smelling something from time to time... "This paper has a really strong and cozy sweet scent what the heck" came to my mind. And then I sniffed my wrists... That was it. I fell in love.

[@zabaziomalka]

I'm going to try Anjelina by Rovena when I run out of my bottles people are saying it is a good dupe.

[@revenge0lobster]

Angel was my signature for a solid 6 years, starting in the mid-2000s. I found that even by 2015, it had changed: I get grapefruit in the opening; it is much less sweet; the patchouli is making barely a cameo. It is not nearly as intoxicating as it used to be, and I am merely thinking of the mid-2000s formulation!

[@mddc10206]

Can anyone make a suggestion for where to buy the original formulation? I do love the 2006 formulation just as much and would definitely purchase that one as well!

[@sweetvictory5643]

Angel Thierry Mugler to me was love at first smell in April 1997. I wanted to bathe in it. But did not buy it because of the price. Later in 2005 I smelled Angel Garden of Stars and loved Le Lys and Violette. I would exchange some of rare fragrances in my collection for these 3 Angels without hesitation.

[@thefragrantician]

I'd love to try Le lys. I'm undecided but who knows??

[@Tiffany-kf7zu]

Just found a vintage spray sample of Le lys. It seems to smell more like Angel than the Angel of today...

[@IStandBrokenxo]

i find today's loreal reformulation of angel to be a very sharp, cold almost artificial patchouli and not much else! it's definitely lacking the warmth and fullness and complexity that it was once renowned for. thankfully i have many mid 2000's bottles and even a couple 1992 bottles backed up in my collection! x

[@thefragrantician]

That's great, I think the older formulation is just much more refined

[@hottinbe]

I dearly miss the OG Angel. I've been wearing the current one but it's time to move on. Can you suggest a few to try? bombastic, gourmand, sweet, longwearing, complex.

Great analysis, Gabi! Nothing beats the OG Angel, but I still love the current one nonetheless. I think because it holds such a place in my heart.

Yes it is something to behold I feel

[@Kostoator]

Try adding five or ten drops of pure ambrette oil into 100ml of Angel edp . This will amp up the longevity of the reformulated angel while making it a bit warmer and deeper !

Amazing comparison of such a stunning fragrance! I’m absolutely loving my bottle of Angel, I’m so happy I was able to get my hands on it. I agree that there seems to be something missing from the current version 🤍💙

[@thefragrantician]

Completely agree Chantel. There's a rough edge to it. It feels unfinished. I like it none the less but anything before 2012 in my opinion is better than the current formulation. People actually complained it was too strong so why full the sweetness and amp up the patchouli. I love patchouli but it's too earthy and woody and doesn't balance the rest out. Oh well its one fragrance we will nurse and savour the OGs 😀💙❤💜

I sprayed on the back of my hand and washed my hand after and it still smells. The one in the store is sweet and round. This one is VERY sweet after the alcohol goes away, and it has more of a flower, almost moss like. This tone the goes away and then it’s like a 90’s party going on. Very sweet, almost like a sweet leather smell. It’s a 25ml bottle, non refill.. What did I buy?? I didn’t get it with a box so I can’t check for some pointers here.

[@beavelasquez9984]

Hi, the version Thierry Mugler batch Code 2014 and 2016 it's good?

[@thefragrantician]

I’m loving Angel edp now! and I’ve been enjoying all of your videos and your passion for Angel :) I recently received my vintage Angel edp according to batch code it’s either 2006 or 1996 no box. I didn’t know Angel then so I have no way of knowing which it is or any differences but vintage is very lovely and much more rounded/sweet and less stinky than todays version for sure

[@thefragrantician]

Yes!! I'm so happy you got a vintage 😍 ✨️ 💕

[@Kellergirl]

I've treid the reformulated version. Sadly, not a fan. I am looking for a vintage version to try. :)

[@thefragrantician]

The first formula or really any angel up to 2010 is the best. After that there was a big reformulation and its just not that masterpiece it was prior.

[@tracibonvenuto2051]

Do the batch codes go in cycles?

[@thefragrantician]

Yes every 10 years or,so with some brands but I think mugler isn't

[@HappinessSparkles]

Good morning my love 😍

[@biljana7116]

I loved angel, but now become to sweet for me.

[@thefragrantician]

That's,a,shame

[@AnaTemperoGomes]

Thank you for sharing. I have an empty refillable bottle of Angel, can't remember the year I got it and a recent one. It has really changed. Patchouli is definitely predominantly the strongest ingredient in the new formula as opposed to the old one. One thing I loved about the old version was a feeling of ice, something very cold, sweet but iced, like a frosted candy and on the current I do not get it. I kid you not but somedays when I wear it, on the first 15 minutes smells straight up ass. Honestly on those days I just loose my mind... It's impressive that brands listen to people easily offended by someone's tastes but don't listen to people when they like their fragrances and discontinued them. Piss me off... Anyway, I love Angel nonetheless, it will always be in my collection. Big kiss ❤️💋

[@thefragrantician]

Angel has has many reformulated versions. I think the OG surpasses them all ❤💞

[@tmarishat]

Extremely sad … Mugler smells awful !!! Awful 😞

[@danceallurlife3508]

I hated this perfume growing up as everyone wore it. As I got older I really loved it and now you can’t get hold of the original formula. I’m too scared to buy ones advertised as original as there are so many fakes out there!🥲 so sad that I didn’t get home while they were still the original formula

[@thefragrantician]

Mugler us now a former shadow of its grandiose style now I'm afraid

[@coffeeandscents9666]

I’m so sad that it’s been reformulated so horribly . I love the new Angel from 2022 but I can only imagine how much more I would love the older version 😢💙💙💙⭐️I’m still going to wear the new one but I wish I had a chance to experience the older one 😢

[@thefragrantician]

The older one is extremely intense!

[@thevalleyofvixens]

L’Oréal downgraded the quality of the perfumes to the gutter. The only last decent formulations are from 2018 when the company was still owned by clarins, so if you find those go for them without second thought! Combing all these with the death of Sir Mugler himself makes me realize what a true end of an era it is 🥲

[@thefragrantician]

I think you're,right. Clarins,qwre the last ones,who had it OK and,after that it's just a,shadow!
