Mugler Addict by Thierry Mugler (October 2016)

MUGLER Addict is one of my favorite subscription boxes, and the fact that it only comes four times a year, it always pops up when I'm not expecting it. I get very excited to see that pale blue box come in the mail.



MUGLER Addict includes an informative card providing descriptions of each item. In this October 2016 box, I received:

















Angel perfume, the best perfume for women who are angelic, devilish, or a little bit of both. Encapsulated in a luminous gem-shaped star, MUGLER’s Angel cologne is distant yet near, tiny yet immense, and eternal. With an overdose of sensual and sweet notes, this seductive women’s perfume is rich with bergamot, sweet red fruits, vanilla, caramel and patchouli.

ANGEL Eau de Toilette (0.1oz, ~$4.86) - Be transported by the celestial scent of Angel with the same carnal sensuality, yet more subtly provocative, and finely nuanced.

The exquisite Angel Eau de Toilette reveals a new dream. The uniqueness of Angel was reinterpreted with respect to its original and unique oriental-gourmand heart, bringing to life an addictive scent with the same carnal sensuality, yet more subtly provocative, rounded and finely nuanced.

ANGEL Perfuming Body Cream (1oz, ~$13.77) - This deliciously perfumed cream will nourish your skin while enchanting all your senses with the scent of Angel.

ANGEL Perfuming Hair Mist (0.17oz, $6.80) - Infuse your hair with the celestial scent of Angel and leave a delicious trail in your wake.

ANGEL ETOILE DES REVES Eau de Parfum (0.05oz, ~$1.99) - Embrace a new night ritual with Angel Etoile des Reves. This intimate version of Angel will last all night long.

Wrap yourself with a delicate negligee of scent as you unveil a new night ritual with the sensual Angel Etoile des Reves. This new Star is an intimate, intense version of Angel with an intoxicating fragrance that lasts... all night long. Even the stars won't resist you! Fragrance notes of bergamot, praline, vanilla, patchouli and musk.


ANGEL MUSE Eau de Parfum (0.06oz, ~$2.21) - Tantalizing. Delicious. Supremely feminine. Surrender now to the new addictive fragrance you will #HateToLove.

A new star has made a stellar entrance into the Angel galaxy of perfumes and it is creating cosmic pandemonium: Angel Muse perfume. Encapsulated in a perfume bottle that resembles a cosmic pebble, Angel Muse perfume orbits around the Angel Eau de Parfum and will send you spinning with its vibrant, sensual, addictive fragrance. A truly delicious indulgence, a modern women's perfume with its irresistible gourmand notes of hazelnut cream-cocoa. Fragrance notes of grapefruit, pink peppercorn, hazelnut cream, vetiver and patchouli.

LE
S EXCEPTIONS - WOODISSIME Eau de Parfum (0.05oz, ~$4.17) - Irresistible. Addictive. Fiery. Unveil a luxurious harmony between woody intensity and floral sparkle.

MUGLER Les Exceptions. Disruptive. Unexpected. Bringing a new olfactory experience to fragrance. Woodissime is characterized by its overdose of sensual Oud wood, stirred with the softness of Osmanthus flower. Woodissime's mesmerizing fragrance trail captures an unexpected harmony between woody intensity and floral sparkle. The Art Deco-inspired bottle showcases an architectural elegance that MUGLER has made its own.


BONUS! ANGEL Enchanting False Eyelashes - Catch all the stars from the sky in a blink of an eye and be the light of your night!
                                                                               
                                                                               

Angel EDT goes on a little strong but after mixing with your natural body oil, fades into a softer, Angel parfum scent. I'm slightly disappointed with this though. I received the mini perfume in a previous box. The body lotion is delicious smelling... regular Angel but with a sweetness. If my skin weren't so irritated by perfumed body care products, I would be the best smelling girl ever. I didn't think I'd like the hair mist. And I didn't. I LOVED IT!!! Ohmigosh. I think this is my favorite thing I've ever received in a MUGLER box. Maybe in any subscription box. It has a candied fragrance to it. Not in an immature, prepubescent perfume kind of way; it's Angel with a modern kick.

Veering away from the traditional Angel scent is Etoile des Reves. For being an EDP, it is very strong. It has a... darkness (?) to it. I had to sniff this dozens of times trying to figure out what the rather LARGE deviation was from its mother fragrance, but I could NOT pinpoint it. I didn't like it. Until I put it on my husband on a whim. It almost has a bitter chocolate-y smell that suited him. Angel Muse is a delightful variation. I immediately picked up the grapefruit note. Also, it came in a handy yet tiny rollerball. So glad I got to try this.  I've become accustomed to getting a Les Exceptions EDP in recent boxes. They are a unisex line that I like very much. Woodissime is more on the masculine scale. The Oud wood is the primary scent and is quite strong. There is a slight floral presence underneath. The false lashes are really unique, but I cannot make them stick, AND I have dozens of pairs to practice with, so I'll give these to one of my friends who can apply them correctly.

A MUGLER Addict subscription is $50 per year and you get four boxes a year, which comes out to $12.50 a box. If I cannot find the same product size on the site for sale, I figure the cost of the fragrance samples and minis based on the 1.7oz size, or what's available. Not including the value of Angel enchanting false eyelashes which I am unable to determine, the total value was $33.80. That's fantastic!

So far, I'm really glad that I decided to become a MUGLER Addict. Wish I'd done it sooner. Cannot wait to see what they have in store for me next quarter.
