Thierry Mugler Alien Oud Majestueux ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 22 July 2015 13 Comments

Thierry Mugler Alien Oud Majestueux

Thierry Mugler has launched Alien Oud Majestueux, a new woody floral amber flanker to 2005's Alien fragrance.  Alien Oud Majestueux follows 2014's Alien Eau Extraordinaire.

A mysterious jewel emerges amongst the ALIEN universe. With its sleek bottle and stunning color, Oud Majestueux will incite energy and wonder. Its radiance will compel her to release her inner goddess and experience extraordinary fascination!

The notes include cardamom, saffron, jasmine, cashmeran and oud.

Thierry Mugler Alien Oud Majestueux is available now on the Mugler France website, in 90 ml

    Inner goddess? The term goddess is such a peeve for me..so cliche too. Alien Extraordinaire was likable to me..I don’t see the oud being too oudy for some reason..may be worth a sniff but ya oud burnout, as well as saffron..and saffron never smells like real saffron to me in perfumes..like not even close. Love saffron..don’t like it in scents. The bottle looks very nice…and with cardamom..it’s probably sniff worthy.

      I don’t like Alien much in any case, so this will be an easy skip for me. Bottle does look nice though!

        I really dislike the original Alien, Extraordinaire was more wearable…original Alien is all chemical on me

    Bottle reminds me of a character in Babylon Five, Ambassador Kosh. It made me giggle. Not goddess-like to me, but to each their own…

    I respect the original Alien, but I can’t wear it. I love the Alien Essence Absolue, but only in tiny doses. The dry down is just about the most gorgeous ever. I’ve tested the Eau Extraordinaire version and am undecided…. but Alien and oud and cardamom and saffron? Wha??? Alien is so bold as it is, I can’t even imagine the addition of these other major accords. It will either be gorgeous or a total trainwreck!!!

      Agree — it is bold already. I am going to assume something got toned down to make up for the oud, but who knows.

    I love and wear Alien and a few of its flankers. I was recently thinking we were do for a new one. I am actually pretty excited about this one. I have very little experience with oud. I really hope I like this.

    Your “please no more oud” tag still makes me laugh, and it’s what I reflexively think every time I see yet another scent with oud in it.

    I have no opinion about this scent because I have no interest in smelling even one more oud scent ever again. My bottle of M7 pretty much gives me all the oud I will ever need for the rest of my life.

    I have smelled Alien out the Bottle and On Myself and DESPISE It. I have had women come into my work and smell then and SWOOON and find out they are wearing Alien and Nearly topple over backwards from the shock of how Sublime it smells on them… It’s an Odd Duck of a scent I’ll tell you that! The Extraordinaire version is LIGHT YEARS Better and I would even wear that one. Just this… So OVER Oud it’s not even funny. Even though the recent Varvatos Oud made me a believer once more… I can still do without ever smelling this stuff!
