&quot;I wanted to translate carnal attraction, magnetism, to act on the mechanisms of desire,&quot; says nose Dominique Ropion of the new Mugler fragrance, Alien Extraintense.

&quot;I like to think of perfume as a vector of emotions,&quot; says Dominique Ropion , an exceptional nose who created the original Alien EdP , as well as other successful variants, and perfumery legends such as Carnal Flower for Frédéric Malle . &quot; Alien has always been synonymous with power, mysticism and presence,&quot; continues Ropion. Conceived as an exploration of the most seductive and voluptuous aspects of femininity , the new Alien Extraintense was designed as an &quot;overdose of sensuality .&quot;

Bearing in mind <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/mugler-unveils-the-fang-a-bold-and-innovative-bag" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mugler</a> 's ambition - to break the codes and reinvent itself with each new creation - this fragrance pushes the idea to paroxysm, creating an engaging, hypnotic and stimulating formula. To emphasize its seductive power, I chose tuberose , a flower with countless facets: a green freshness, a milky roundness and softness, but also animalic tones. Tuberose is a perfectly balanced flower, which emanates an intense power of seduction. Its complexity is as bewitching as it is disconcerting. In the fragrance, in fact, the creamy vanilla accord distinctive to Alien meets a floral heart of Grandiflorum jasmine , cardamom and tuberose. While the sensual Cashmeran base, another signature accord of Alien , combines with amber woods in a long-lasting and ultra-sensual sillage. "By placing the emphasis on a tuberose in a tuning fork and vanilla, the formula becomes even more captivating. I wanted to translate carnal attraction, magnetism, to act on the mechanisms of desire."

A concept perfectly rendered by the bottle , a triumph of purple and black marked by a metallic black claw , by the intense portrait of Anok Yai made by Craig McDean and by the video of the fragrance , directed by Daniel Sannwald . As in the Alien Hypersense commercial, Sannwald and Mugler &#39;s Creative Director , Casey Cadwallader , have played masterfully with the ultra-fast rhythm and the morphism of the images, using in this case a palette of purples and blacks , vinyl and velvety textures , the perfume as a magic liquid , the opening of the flowers , the grain of the skin, the very long hair of an ancestral magical creature, the different textures of the dress, the lacquer of the nails, the reflections of the glass that become reflections of the iris, the solidification of the juice into a dense matter like a creamy lipstick , the doubling and multiplication of Anok , the empowering sensuality of her catwalking…
