The house of Thierry Mugler announces two new editions arriving on the market in March 2012. These are sophisticated, elegant and chic eau de toilettes that will bring the popular compositions closer to girls and women who prefer transparent editions – aquatic fragrances.
Both editions will not go far from the popular topic they are famous for, but will be more transparent and purified with aquatic accords.
Alien Aqua Chic is a new version of Alien, created of ginger water, lemon verbena, freesia, on warm notes of wood and amber. The fragrance can be obtained in 60 ml EDT flacons. Perfumer of the new edition is Dominique Ropion.

I just received my free TM Alien Aqua Chic sample, and it is beautiful, I love it. You can tell that it is related to the original Alien, it has that spicy floral feel to it, but much lighter.
Yeyyyyyyyyyy im so happy to add this in my collection for a really really cheap price!!! I saw Arnotts selling for 50 Euro and i only paid 25:D From Debenhams!! It is of course so similar to Its mother Alien and sister Eau de toilet but a lil bit different way. I read the reviews and they say it has no life but in my skin its staying more than 8 hours!! So its pretty good for light eau de toilet. In my opinion from all perfume house Thierry Mugler is the best about lasting power! I mean i love Chanel , Dior but they are not as long lasting as Thierry.I will def. buy original Alien for winter time.I love this stuff Mannnnnnnnnn:D
I think I prefer this to the original alien AND taste of fragrance which is the version I have. Its gorgeous and fresh and will wear well in the sun. I don't have this yet but hopefully Ill get it soon!
I love the original Alien but this perfume is 100 % masculine on me. Dislike a lot!
Various flankers of Alien and Angel carry different resemblance to the originals. I am not a massive fan of 'aqua' scents in general, so I was not really hopeful about this one, but when I tried it, I was realy disappointed...
This is really not Alien in any sort of way. It bears no resemblance to the original or any of its younger sisters. Bah, this is not even a cousin, more of an adopted child to the Alien family. It is very citrusy, sharp, with lots of flowery notes in the background. It is quite intense despite being a summer version, but it is intense in the notes I am not too fond of. It makes me think of Alien/lemonade version. Flowery and sparkling. I guess this will work for someone who found the original too heavy.
What it lacks it character, the scent itself is nice, but unlike the others, it does not have the 'it' factor that made me sniff my wrist, it sort of became one of very many summer fragrances.
The longevity and silage are average, not too bad on quite a warm spring day.
This was quite the revelation for me.
I allways thought ALIEN was about jasmine, but ALIEN AQUA CHIC doesn't have ANY jasmine, but it is defenilty ALIEN. Hmmm...
Well, what can I say about this. I like it a lot.
I have not been an ALIEN-addict for so long and I do not know whether other flankers were better, but I don't have the money to track them down and buy them, so I make do with what I have.
And what I have, is this little perfume.
The opening is fresh and green. Very summery, but not beach-like summer. More like a sometimes rainy English (or Belgian) summer. The spiciness of the ginger adds some delicate warmth and juiciness to it.
As the fragrance dries down, the rain stops and the sun breaks trough with all it's radiant warmth, shining on the field and woods and evoking the oh so beloved woody ambery scent of the ALIEN drydown, though a bit sharper than the original.
In this fragrance I think the drydown is like the smell of warm, sunlit skin. Like having a picknick on a still raindamp field. Like taking a swim in a brook nearby.
It's like all things great about summer.
I do not know whether it would be appropriate to wear in countries with really hot summers, but here in Belgium it will do just fine, giving both lovely freshness and warmth.
The longevity isn't that great, but what do you want with an EDT légère? It was never meant to have the power of the original.
And the bottle is beautiful too! I thought those droplets were just for the commercial, to make it look more refreshing. But when you touch the bottle, you can actually feel them!
I love it, and I love that the bottle has two colours now.
OMG, I would love to have this fragrance!! I love love love all of the Alien fragrances by Thierry Mugler I have purchased.
I will have to check out the mugler store website.
I like this summer version a lot, and would say it's similar to the original Alien eau de toilette. The top notes are more refreshing, with the addition of spicy, juicy ginger, and a zesty citrus feel courtesy of the lemon verbena. The ginger and citrus are strongest in the first hour of wear. As the fragrance dries down, it smells quite similar to Alien EDT...if I have any complaint, it's that I wish the spiciness from the ginger laster longer. As for the fragrance overall, the longevity and sillage are very good.
In comparison to the 2011 summer version (Sunessence Or d'Ambre), Alien Aqua Chic is truer to the original and less sweet. I'm surprised that jasmine is not listed as a note...it definitely has that strange, intense jasmine accord that is characteristic of pretty much every version of Alien. Overall, I find it juicy, lush, spicy-but-fresh, and definitely suited to warm weather.
I really like it and I've put in on my Love list.
It's summery and nice and I know it's not among the notes but I felt a short-lived Lily of the Valley note. I think it has a stronger floral note than the original Alien but I like the original better because is creamy, warm and mysterious.
Alien Aqua Chic is lovely but it has a short life and it is really bland compared with the original. I will keep my money and buy the original.
disappointingly it is not as good as I thought it would be. the scent doesn't smell young for me, more like for an old woman. gingerwater which is also contained in 'Kölnisch Wasser' (a disgusting eau de toilette which is used by old women) makes the perfume that 'old'. another disadvantage of this eau de toilette is, that it doesn't last long time...after 2 minutes the scent is almost completely disappeared. so, I wouldn't buy it again.
Well it's ok but not WOW. It's kinda like a more floral version of the original, not too different from the sunescence version but instead of lemon smell you get light floral scent. Like I said,it is ok but I prefer the original or liquer version.
I just requested my free mini from the Mugler store online. I hope I get it .
It sounds absolutely wonderful.
Alien Aqua Chic...L'eau de gingembre!
The opening is pretty similar to classic Alien( may be a bit sharper) but heart makes this scent different....it turns to fresh spicy floral...and i smell daffodils !!!A bit spicy ginger and lots of floral ..and sure this differs as another version of classic Alien....it feels lighter thiner ,watery floral!
It gives the sense of coolness and freshness more than classic Alien!
If you are searching for a summer and day wearing of your favorite Alien ,you will enjoy it!
Having tested it on paper, this just smells like a classier, more grown-up, less overpowering version of that "Hollister smell" to me.
It's nicely done and doesn't linger in your nose so you can't smell anything else for a few minutes unlike the Hollister smell... but it just doesn't really do anything for me. It's not nearly interesting enough a scent for my tastes.
I can't be arsed trying it on my skin if that's what it's like for me.
I've yet to try the original Alien, though, so I've no idea how much of a likeness to the original there is.

I tested this today at Macy's and if you like the original Alien, I have a feeling you will enjoy this one. I personally thought it was just as strong, so far I tested this for 8 hours and I can still smell it! The freesias are a nice change to the jasmine that I am used to but it's still definitely Alien. The ginger provides a zesty clean, fresh feeling. In my opinion it smells very similar to the original alien. Which is great, so thumbs up! What can I say Alien is the best, I love the original and all special, and summer editions.
Not the best Alien flanker, although I cannnot really say anothing bad about it.It is lighter, the jasmine though is lovely, so if you are looking for a lighter version of Alien, you would probably enjoy it.Drydown is weak though.
this is ok.....watered down alien....alien is just nice and original ....better 2 stick 2 that..lol
Beautiful, it's been a long time since the days I wore Angel. And to tell the truth, I had been shying away from anything by Thierry Mugler. Just too burnt out from Angel! Then I smelled Alien Aqua Chic and fell in love! I get a very faint hint of Angel days gone by. But more like a memory than a focal point.
Well done, fresh fragrance that I'll be wearing through the spring and summer.
If you are looking for something bold and confident...this is it. It is refreshing and mintyy...but it is very different from other perfumes in the market. If you want to try something different with hint of Menthol, this is a great perfume.
I cannot stop smelling myself…it’s amazing.
To me this really just smelled like watered-down Alien. I expected more from this special edition. I really don't smell ginger, lemon verbena, or freesia. Even if there was ginger in the opening, there was no trace of it after several seconds. The heart is pretty much solid (albeit light) jasmine. There are so many other flankers of Alien that are better.
It starts off with ginger, which makes it feel really fresh and spicy at the same time. I don't really like ginger in fumes, but in this one it's just enough. I think Mugler did a great job on this one yet again. It's very Alien, but it's watery. Does justice to it's name, and is exactly what i expected from it. It doesn't last as long as we're used to with mugler's creations, but has an average longevity and sillage. I sprayed it on my sleeve, and on there it lasted for 3 days. Definitely for summer as a refresher for the hottest days. I like it!
When i tested it you get the ginger in the opening witch gives a litlle spicyness to it but fades quickly. Then i get a hint of verbena and freesia. The drydown is soft amber with woods. This edition is to soft for me. After one hour its almost gone and get tiny bit of the scent. I asked my husband if he could smell it, he had to sniff my neck and he hardly could smell it. I think its more close to the skin. I prefer the Sunnesence Amber edition wich is more longlasting on my skin. This is really light, eary and aquatic.It its not for me. I already spritzt Alien edp on my skin to detect the notes that i love of its original. Its not worth my money.
