Which Should You Buy?
Alien is a cult classic that radiates otherworldly confidence, blending glowing jasmine and plush amber into an unforgettable sillage. This is not a wallflower scent - it’s magnetic and unmistakable.
No. 028 goes after Mugler Alien's jasmine-cashmeran-amber signature with a simplified version of the same trio: a bright jasmine open into a warm amber-woody base, but flatter and less radiant than the original's glowing, mineral-tinged amber.
