Alien(2005)

Created by Dominique Ropion for Mugler, Alien opens on Somalian incense, moves through an overdosed jasmine sambac heart, and closes on white amber and cashmeran wood. Its unusually minimal three-note structure, built around an intense, near-solo jasmine framed by incense and a warm synthetic musk, produced a distinctive, otherworldly white-floral oriental, and it became one of Mugler's most significant fragrances following the earlier Angel.
