Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - A*Men Pure Shot EDT
This one's a proper divisive one, innit? Mugler fans expecting beast-mode sweetness will be proper miffed, but if you're after a fresh, clean aromatic with a cracking mint-juniper hit that doesn't overstay its welcome, you might just find a new favourite, despite the grumbles about performance. Don't expect original A*Men DNA.

Our Verdict - Angelic Touch For Men EDP
Angelic Touch chases Mugler's discontinued A*Men Pure Shot, that icy mint-and-spice sport-woody. Perfume Parlour captures the fresh cooling opening but renders the woods thinner and the spice softer, trading a little of the original's adrenaline punch for an easier, more linear wear.

Season and Occasion Fit

A*Men Pure Shot

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office Date

Its fresh, energetic, and clean profile makes it great for casual outings and sport, but given the reported poor longevity, it feels less suitable for formal wear. It's safe enough for the office due to its lighter projection, but might need reapplication.

Angelic Touch For Men

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

The icy mint and fresh-spicy profile is at its best in spring and summer and works in early autumn, but feels thin in deep cold.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office Date

Sporty and clean, it suits the gym, casual days and the office, with less presence for formal evenings.
