Which Should You Buy?
A divisive, discontinued gem that softens the original Angel's bold personality without losing its distinct character. People are absolutely gutted it's gone. If you want a more wearable version of a classic, this is it - if you can find it.
A budget clone of Mugler's Angel Aqua Chic. The sparkling citrus-and-fruit opening over a light patchouli-vanilla base captures the original's fresh, aquatic take on Angel, though Perfume Parlour renders it simpler and shorter-lived.
