My favourite perfume brand Mugler is generous with us this year: The Brand just released another much anticipated flanker*. Aura Mugler Eau de Parfum Sensuelle, a feminine floral musk flanker to 2017’s Aura. Mugler says the fragrance invites us to reconnect with our inner nature and exalt our sensuality.
How it smells
Where Aura is like an instant way into a green jungle, Aura Mugler Eau de Parfum Sensuelle is softer, lighter and more tame with a bigger dose of sweetness. I think it’s a fragrance lovers of gourmands will appreciate and it slightly reminds me of Angel, without being as overpowering.
If Aura is a jungle I’d say this one is an elegant Victorian conservatory. They both have the green notes and their botanical freshness in common, but where they are teamed up with rhubarb and orange blossom in the original, this one embraces the warmth of Sri Lankan sandalwood, white musk and spicy cinnamon leaf. What Eau Sensuelle lost in aromatic sharpness, it gained in sweetness and elegance.
It’s more feminine and I guess a lot of people would say more wearable. I find the Aura Mugler Eau Sensuelle quite long-lasting on my skin, but not too heavy. As a big fan of Aura (my second favourite scent right after Alien), I am very pleased with this new creation from Mugler.
The notes:
Top: Cinnamon Leaf & Gardenia
Heart: Green Notes
Base: White Musk & Sandalwood
The bottle
The faceted diamond heart of Aura is one of my favourite perfume bottles ever and this new version makes it even better since it looks like the heart got clothed in a pink and iridescent veil. Oh yes, you will stay on my shelf you stunner of a bottle, right next to the green Aura bottle!
* Flanker: A newly created perfume that shares attributes of an already existing one such as notes, name and packaging.
