Perfumer Reviews 'Alien Man' by Mugler

[@RealMenRealStyle]

I love watching you break fragrances down in so much detail. Amazing. And I have this one - I like it, but find it hard to wear as I have so many ones that are better. Love the bottle though.

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

Thank you. I loved the little bottle to

[@dard4642]

I appreciate what you said about the value of your chemistry degree. My degree is in Mathematics. I've never had a "math job" but I am still so very proud of my choice of field of study. It did not teach me how to think but it developed the thinking skills I already possessed. You cannot teach talent but you can develop a talent that is already there. If an accomplished person notices talent in someone who is interested in developing their interest, one of the most generous things that one can do for that person, for yourself, and for the world, is to believe in that person. It sounds like that kind man saw promise in you when you yourself were a raw material.

[@martingomezmarinich7059]

i fell in love with alien man. Thierry... may he rest in peace

[@JoeCoplen]

That tiny bottle is everything, too.

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

I love it massively. Like a dolls fragrance

[@caitig9719]

The way you talk about fragrance is mesmerizing.

[@slaybiafoldz2352]

I just wanted to thank you for your work! I'm a self taught novice perfumer, and watching your videos is a constant source of inspiration for me. I love how you talk about individual notes and how they are used! I have some dihydromyrcenol that I haven't used yet because I wasn't sure how I should use it. Now after hearing you describe how it was used in this perfume, I'm going to experiment with it! ❤️💛💜

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

Thats wonderful. Im so happy. Thank you for sharing

Perfect timing haha I just got a sample of this 2-3 hours ago

[@adrians916]

Thanks for the review Aaron, will try it! Like that you said it would be suitable for every day use or gym. I love it when someone discusses the following categories: ◇ What the fragrance is designed for use wise like office / gym / beach / etc ◇ Best season to wear it - Fall, winter, etc. ◇ Projection capability ◇ Linearity of fragrance ◇ How long it lasts. I find that you often discuss these aspects and I must tell you that we appreciate your expert advise as you are an expert in your field and review objectively as well as tell us what your preference is and how you would have potentially modified the fragrance to give it a different edge. Thanks again!

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

My pleasure. Have a great weekend

[@adrians916]

Thanks Aaron, you too!

I'm very new to fragrances and I'm glad I find you. Future fragrance superstar! Mark my words 😄

[@williamakajehuty]

Just wanted to thank you. I ordered Zeus and Anubis wednesday, received it in France on Friday. It was soooo fast :D Thanks for the sample of your new fragrance Ambré Extreme.

[@LauraBergum]

Great episode, thank you.

[@gabrielvazquez7147]

I just smelled this one at the wholesalers but I had already bought a couple of colognes. Later, however, I still have the tester strip and Alien man is getting better and better. I will have to pick this up tomorow.

[@thetechlibrarian]

I can not get over that dill note.

[@JoeCoplen]

I was interested in Alien because it has a prominent dill note and it was pretty unique to me. It tends to not last, though and like you said the dry down is pretty standard.

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

Worth the money I think. But yes standard

[@metalfoxhound]

I find this fragrance really intriguing. Although it's not my favourite of the Alien's, it's definitely mysterious and has a very metallic quality on my skin. I love the synthetic nature to the Alien fragrances, quite authentic.

[@bassinblue]

Your whole demeanour is so soothing. Not a fan of loud and annoying reviewers xD Great review.

[@kevinmcevoy532]

Thanks for the mention Aaron and a great review 👍

[@fodads]

this is my new favorite scent. but almost too powerful to wear in normal setting. one spray is enough. it definitely grabs attention of the opposite sex as well as the same sex. it is strange, deep, dark, sweet and alluring. smokey and mysterious! love it.

[@alexandrostsagkaropoulos]

I would love to hear your take on CH Men Prive. Your work is highly appreciated Mr. Aaron!

[@taylorjordan1122]

As you were saying you would add rose and leather to this, that got me excited

[@jm77_josemanuel]

Very interesting review.

[@BellumOmniumContraOmnes]

Insightful as always! One thing I've always wondered is whether tattoos (not recently done of course) affect how a perfume smells/projects/performs overall. I would assume that "safe" & tested fragrances should not penetrate the skin enough to have any effect.

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

Never apply fragrance over a fresh tattoo. Its like a cut. Wait for the healing process to be complete

[@renegadebrad7448]

That's a good question actually I've got quite a few tattoos and i don't think it does but i don't know i presume it's just down to everyone's uniquely individual skin and how fragrances perform like body chemistry dry or moist skin types pale or dark skin types how we sweat too.,we all are very unique,even identical twins ain't the same 😂 unsolved mysteries let's get mulder and scully on the case 😂

[@kstewart3313]

Love your videos!😀

[@nicholasbishop8187]

Love your reviews everytime. Love to she what you think about Nishane Ani. I think it's a pretty good vanilla frag.

[@scent.sketch]

Hi ! I really enjoy your reviews lately and now I am wondering, because you live in UK - Do you know Floris London ? Do you like their fragrances ? I love Floris Santal and it seems that they use good quality materials, but I am really curious what could tell us as a perfumer about their perfumes.

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

I have heard of them and will do a review in the future. Have a great weekend

[@scent.sketch]

@@AaronTerenceHughes thx

[@floriankubiak7313]

Will your discovery box ever be on sale? I'm curious, but poor :D

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

We have to get them printed in Liverpool. They print one at a time. I hope this week we have some. Thank you for being patient

[@floriankubiak7313]

@@AaronTerenceHughes oh, sorry - I meant "on discount", not "back in stock". Since I've never seen any testers, spending 200 on blind buying is a bit much (you know that science only gets paid outside of university).

[@MrM-xr3fz]

Apparently this one has been discontinued 😅

[@wrldonwill]

Alot of Mugler fans disliked this one when it released. I enjoyed it because it was more natural smelling than the A*Men line. Alien Man transports me to a sunny, very cool Spring day. Thanks for the review.

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

Thanks for sharing!

[@catalinbanu9049]

Hello Aaron, i was wondering what s your opinion about Mugler as a whole house, do you find it as being inspired, as a designer house? Does A men resemble the smell of silver surfer or the smell of kind of dark super hero?

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

I love that house. Perfectly priced for what it is.

[@BigSteve93015]

Great review but not something that interests me. Really would like to hear your thoughts on the Orto Parisi line. You like dark, deep, lasting fragrances this is the line to review. Cheers from Southern California.

I like this one but I hardly ever wear it, the bottle is super cool!

[@felino5082]

Greetings from Germany! I like you're reviews:) do you know yves rocher?

[@nyczumazooma]

Yes! Reminds me, I also like a few woman's fragrances on my male skin. With these select few, the male version just doesn't appeal to my nose. I won't bore you with my incredibly short list, but the woman's fragrance that MOST works on my skin, as well as getting a mental amount of women's compliments as well as dudes(!), is Tommy Girl, in a tiny, extremely well fabricated metal container. In a PASTE! From around 2001'ish. Unfortunately they no longer make it. I have tried the modern EDT spray, and although it brings back some nostalgic and romantic memories, just doesn't smell the same. But i still have a bottle from 2016 and secretly use it now and then at home for Netflix nights. The other half really likes it, but the modern version is way to feminine for a male to wear in public IMHO (and with fragrances I don't care male or female, just good nose!). Thanks CEO of ATH fine fragrances, im gonna score a decant of Alien Man for woman. I wonder if Aaron will ever review paste fragrances, and his thoughts, or perhaps give his opinion of them? From a scientific perspective. Would make for some interesting knowledge regarding fragrances. Thanks for taking the time to do these videos. You really help us fragrance fanatics understand them, and no doubt expand our palettes/noses! This is so awesome. Thank you so much!!!!

[@Fadel_Abbas]

I hope you get the chance to smell Renaissance by Xerjoff. It is a lovely summer fragrance.

[@98270360]

Wow. First time seeing a video from you and I gotta say that was one of the best review videos I've ever seen. Not as in a cologne review, I mean as in any review on anything I've ever watched. My girlfriend says I'm obsessed with smelling fragrances.. I've smelled around 300 in 4 months. Obsessed? Very picky and always searching for the one. The magical fragrance. Only found 4 I really like so far out of all that :/ You're thoughts on it is very close to mine. Watched another review and his description is not even on the same planet, almost like he was reviewing the wrong one by mistake.

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

Thank you for your kind words. We work really hard to make these reviews amazing

How to pronounce mugler?

[@y00bz]

Fashion people ever since the 80s have said "moo-glare" but I saw one of their own ads in England where the voice over pronounced it "muggler" so who knows

[@BioTurk]

@@y00bz not myugla?

[@tomt6166]

BioTurk it is German. But Manfred is French which make people want to put the French flair on it. But Moo-glare is pretty accurate I would say.

how do you call yourself a perfumer while using a sample bottle !! for reviewing and rating!!!! by the way, the longevity from the 100ml bottle is 5 to 7 hours not 1 hour!

[@perfume.love.coffee8347]

7 out of 10 is very generous. You can find cheapies that are half the price and twice the size which are much better than this. Should have been an epic release, and it turned out so bland and generic. Mugler have really gone backwards in recent years. 😔
