Which Should You Buy?
This one's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, a genuinely divisive gourmand cherry. Expect a 'Mon Chéri' chocolate with a jammy, sometimes medicinal, cherry core. Give it time to macerate; the initial spray can be a bit wild, but it mellows into something addictive for many.
Match Fragrances' interpretation of Mugler's Angel (1992) - the Olivier Cresp and Yves de Chiris patchouli-cotton candy gourmand that invented the modern sweet-gourmand category, here translated into a cotton candy-bergamot opening over honey and blackberry into a patchouli-chocolate close. Honest dupe-fidelity for evening feminine wear at a fraction of the designer price.
