Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Alien Man EDT
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.
Favourite
Our Verdict - No.277 Alien EDP
A modern green-aromatic fougere dupe of Mugler Alien Man, built on a classic herbal top with leather, cashmere wood and a vanilla-amber base. Faithful to the original's structure, though softer in projection.

Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its unique, sometimes 'weird' profile and decent projection limit its office suitability, but the comforting, spicy warmth and leather make it excellent for dates, casual outings, and even slightly formal events, with minimal sport appeal given its depth.
