How does Le Goût du Parfum differ from the original Alien Eau de Parfum?+−
While both share the core of jasmine, cashmeran, and white amber, Le Goût du Parfum (The Taste of Fragrance) introduces a prominent fudge note. This makes the scent significantly sweeter, darker, and more "treacly" compared to the brighter, more floral original.
Is this fragrance still in production?+−
No, this was a limited edition release from 2011. Because it was part of a special collection where perfumes were enhanced with a "taste" element, it has since been discontinued and is now a sought-after collector's item.
How long does the scent last on the skin?+−
This version is known for its relentless longevity. Consistent with the "old school" Mugler power, it typically lasts all day and well into the night, often remaining on clothing until they are laundered.
What is the best time of year to wear this?+−
Due to its heavy, sweet, and oriental profile, it is best suited for the low temperatures of winter and fall. The richness of the fudge note can become overwhelming in high summer heat.
