“I designed an ultra-modern Alien, reaching the quintessence of florality,” said Dominique Ropion, the master perfumer of Thierry Mugler’s latest eau de parfum, Alien Hypersense, in a release about the fragrance.
We agree. And while we adore all spritzes Alien, this woody floral incarnation is a stand-out in the French designer’s line.
Pretty and expressive, powerful and commanding, Hypersense opens with fresh, tart, crisp notes of green mandarin superessence and pear accord. A heady and hypnotic bouquet of white jasmine blooms soon waft forward lending an air of sensuality and opulence. Smooth driftwood, silky musk, intimate cashmeran and sun-kissed amber wood notes add the final touch—a salty, sexy radiance. The overall effect is beautiful and captivating, inimitable and relevant. It is, after all, a Mugler.
Renowned for his audacious approach to fashion and fragrance, the late Monsieur Mugler embraced and defined female empowerment. From the runway to the red carpet, every cinched waist, strong silhouette and Met Gala style (remember Kim Kardashian’s drenched ensemble?), he has redefined femininity. Now, with top model Anok Yai embodying Hypersense’s magnificent eau, the Mugler-effect is in full force and we can’t wait to wear this one out.
Mugler Hypersense EDP $170 for 60ml and $200 for 90ml, available at Hudson’s Bay.
