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.

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.
