Thierry Mugler

The philosophy of Thierry Mugler perfumes is to project us into an imaginary world. With his fragrances outside of trends, Thierry Mugler invites us to share his dreams.

These are therefore perfumes that lead into the extravagance of the designer's collections. The Thierry Mugler touch is of course present in the fragrances that reconnect with the traditions of perfumery of the past by bringing back the concept of Perfume fountains. With "Angel", it's an imaginary journey to childhood that is evoked. With "A*Men", it's the heroic side of the man wearing it that is highlighted. With "Alien", it's a luminous, solar journey full of hope. Thanks to the "Perfume Workshops" organized by the brand, the house's perfume expertise is passed on to trainees. The philosophy of Thierry Mugler perfumes is also about sharing...

Thierry Mugler: the French perfume artist

Perfume, this essential everyday element, is a source of admiration for some and motivation for others. From antiquity to the Renaissance, passing through the Middle Ages, perfume has always been an important part of our history. Nowadays, it is the object of industrialization.

The perfume brands of our time have multiplied, as have the essences highlighted in the bottles. All tastes and budgets are taken into account. Moreover, the Thierry Mugler brand is no exception to this rule. Let's discover it in all its grandeur.

The story of a great brand

The Thierry Mugler perfume brand owes its name to its creator. A French fashion designer, Manfred Thierry Mugler has worn many hats in his professional career. The role of perfume creator was attributed to him after he was approached by Clarins, a cosmetics company.

Founded in 1954, Clarins specializes in high-end cosmetic products. It was in 1990 that they called upon Thierry Mugler, who then created the company's first perfume. It is still present in department stores today.

This first bottle was so successful that the Thierry Mugler Parfums company was created. The designer then became its artistic director. He finally left this position in 2013, without giving up his role as a perfume creator. Indeed, other scents would come to complete the long list of the brand's products.

Thierry Mugler, from theaters to perfume workshops

Some claim December 21 as his birth date, while others assert he was born on December 23. In any case, it is clear that Thierry Mugler was born in 1948 in Strasbourg. It is also this district of the Grand Est that will see this multifaceted man grow up.

Son of a doctor, Thierry Mugler chose not to follow the same path as his father. At the age of nine, he began classical dance and then continued with ballet at fourteen. He later discovered stage direction, costume design, and lighting through theater.

At 21, he moved to Paris, then became an independent designer 5 years later. His first collection, "Café de Paris," fully revealed Thierry Mugler to the fashion world. Nevertheless, he decided to also take an interest in photography, making short films, and stage direction.

His talents not going unnoticed, the great couturier entered the world of perfumery. "Les Ateliers Parfums par Thierry Mugler" was launched in 2005 and managed to transmit, for years, the know-how and art of craftsmanship and the perfume industry.

Thierry Mugler brand products

When Thierry Mugler ventured into perfumery, he certainly didn't imagine he would become a major player in the field. The products of his brand are more daring than each other.

Angel, the first Thierry Mugler perfume, appeared in 1992. Angel attracts with its unusual blue color and is a fascinating blend of flavors. Chocolate and praline mixed with patchouli, that's what it offers. The flavors of this unique perfume are sweet and bring something new to what fragrance enthusiasts were used to.

A*Men follows Angel in 1996. Woody and full-bodied, this oriental perfume is designed with several scents and in different forms. A*Men Pure Havana, for example, is designed with a dark brown shade reminiscent of luxury cigars. It contains aromas of tobacco leaves, honeyed tobacco, and bitter cocoa.

The A*Men Refillable Rubber Spray is no less impressive. It reflects the virility of man. Moreover, its refined trail doesn't fail to awaken the hero its user has always been. Another form is the A*Men Metal Spray. Let's not forget the eau de toilette and A*Men Kryptomint which are in limited edition.

Finally, Alien is the latest Thierry Mugler perfume. Specially produced for women, Alien releases an amber, woody and floral scent. It is available in eau de parfum and eau de toilette. Recently, the masculine version of Alien was launched and contains notes of wood and leather.

However, beyond perfume, the Mugler brand has decided to expand and offer the best of cosmetics to its enthusiasts. This is how shower milks, Body Sublimator Milk and Body Sublimator Cream came to be. The scented candles with floral fragrances will also not leave you indifferent.

The brand's muses

Major brands, to make themselves more visible and better connect with the public, do not hesitate to call upon fashion and film stars. These allow them to associate a face with their products, and through this, users can identify with them.

The main Mugler muse is Naomi Watts. A British actress and producer by profession, Naomi Watts agrees to collaborate with Thierry Mugler as the face of Angel. The success of this first perfume by Thierry Mugler is certainly also due to this well-known face in the world of cinema.

Doutzen Kroes followed for the spring and summer campaign of 2016. The international model was delighted, as this collaboration was a boost to her already meteoric career. Georgia May Jagger joins the list in 2017. However, she doesn't take the spotlight away from the face of Zhenya Katava, the Belarusian model.
