Mugler Cologne: No Traces Of Gourmand Here
If you think that all Thierry Mugler’s fragrances are composed of good-enough-to-eat notes then you haven’t discovered Mugler Cologne yet. Call it the antithesis of Angel. Mugler Cologne is not in any way gourmand; rather it’s green, clean and soapy just like the comely aroma of the Moroccan soap that Thierry Mugler bought years ago. Perfumer Alberto Morillas designed this cologne and the notes are neroli, bergamot, petit grain, African orange, white musk and a mysterious “S” note. This cologne is unlike Angel. There’s none of the food-y accords that beset Angel and its flankers.
The fresh approach of this cologne is reminiscent of the 80s when soapy accords in men’s fragrances ruled the perfumery. The green composition is like fresh cut grass. The light and easygoing feeling it brings out is comforting, more like cozy and laid-back in the long run. There’s also some zesty-herbal aroma that adds to the masculinity factor although some women do fancy wearing this cologne as well. The mysterious “S” note is probably sage, the aromatic herb that brings out the flavor in our food. As for the base, the white musk provides a nice background to the entire composition.
The downside of this fragrance is longevity. Cologne, per se, is a diluted version of the more potent parfum, eau de toilette and eau de parfum and that could be the reason for its short-lived sillage. You need to be close to appreciate its beauty and you may have to spray more often to hold the fragrance longer on your skin.
Mugler Cologne on the overall is a well-blended fragrance especially if you don’t feel like wearing something groundbreaking. It’s also a nice summer scent when the air is hot and dry. Or on days when just want to smell fresh and clean, simple as that.
