Our verdict on B*Men: Acquired

A truly unique Mugler creation, B*Men is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, a spicy, woody, licorice bomb that leaves no one indifferent. It's divisive, but for those who get it, it's a discontinued masterpiece that collectors are desperate to hunt down.

Given its strong personality and the polarizing licorice note in the opening, B*Men isn't ideal for a restrained office environment, though some find it versatile. It shines on dates and formal occasions, particularly in cooler weather, where its warm, unique character can make a statement. Casual wear is possible, especially in less structured settings, but it's certainly not a gym scent.

About

B*Men opens with an intriguing blend of fresh spice and prominent licorice, immediately setting it apart. As it settles, a warm, woody heart of vetiver and patchouli emerges, softened by a touch of powdery violet and the creamy sweetness of vanilla. The drydown reveals a sensual, faintly leathery base, while the distinctive anise maintains a subtle, persistent hum throughout. It’s a complex, evolving scent; earthy and herbaceous yet surprisingly aromatic.
