Which Should You Buy?
Divisive, unique, and for some, an absolute masterpiece. Mugler's Alien Man is either a love-it-or-hate-it scent that challenges the mainstream, or it's a generic let-down. You've got to try it yourself to find out.
No. 390 mirrors Mugler's Alien Man closely in structure - lavender-anise top, leather-cashmeran heart, white amber base - but the leather is softer and less resinous, so the polarising, provocative edge people either love or hate about the original is dialled well back here.
