Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Alien EDP
Hypnotic jasmine glowing on amber, with cashmeran adding a woody, mineral warmth in the middle. Bold and very long-lasting. The glow and the sillage are what Alien is about.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Out of This World EDP
Radiant and sun-warmed, a floral inspired by Mugler Alien that comes into its own on cold evenings and nights out. Jasmine and mandarin glow, and cashmeran and amber add woody warmth.

Season and Occasion Fit

Alien

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Autumn Winter

Amber and cashmeran give it a warm weight that suits autumn and winter, with spring workable. In summer heat it can be too much.

Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Formal

Strong and long-lasting, it suits dates, evenings and formal events. It is too assertive for most offices and not made for sport.

Out of This World

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

Cashmeran and amber give it a cosy depth that works best in winter and autumn, with spring a pleasant extra.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Office Date Formal

Date nights and formal evenings fit best, casual wear is fine, and the office or gym less so.
