Heaven Scent: A Perfume Review (Thierry Mugler's Angel Eau de Parfum)

Product: Angel Eau de Parfum by Thierry Mugler


Price: varies according to bottle size from $25-$180


Description: (taken from Sephora.com) Angel, the first perfume by Thierry Mugler, evokes the emotion of tender childhood memories together with a sense of dreamlike infinity.


Angel, which launched a new fragrance category called the "oriental gourmands," seduces us with angelic flavors found deep within the heart of our memories, as well as sensual and passionate notes.


Notes:
Bergamot, Hedione, Helional, Honey, Dewberry, Red Berries, Vanilla, Caramel, Patchouli, Chocolate, Coumarin.





From time to time I enjoy the scent of a very strong, heady but elegant perfume especially during the cooler "Ber" months (September, October, etc.). Personally, it conjures up images of big bear hugs, a cup of rich, hot cocoa, the warmth of a roaring fireplace, and a chic, over-sized sweater. Angel perfume signals the beginning of all things fall and winter-ish. It's cozy, unexpected, and luxurious all at once. Admittedly, it can be a tad overwhelming after an initial spritz but it dries down to something wonderfully inviting and comforting on my skin. My husband enjoys the way it smells on me (it's what he associates me with as my signature scent) so that doesn't hurt, either! 

I invite you to try out this classic perfume if you haven't already. It's on the expensive side, yes, but it's worth the price tag; the scent lingers all day so only a small amount is needed on your skin...which I think makes it more cost effective than perfume you need to reapply constantly. I only have 2 caveats: it costs a pretty penny and the fact that this is an Eau de Parfum so it has a distinctly intense, long-lasting scent--but it's a fun way to spice up your perfume wardrobe! You have to really love it to commit to it though so keep that in mind...and try out a free sample at Sephora beforehand :)

Ms. Makeup Maven's Yay, Nay, or Just Stay Away: a definite yay--it's timeless, refined, and beautifully fragrant. And if you're anything like me, one whiff of it is all you need to get hooked on this heavenly scent.

Be Beautifully Blessed...
