Alien Sunessence Edition Saphir Soleil Thierry Mugler for women

Slightly similar to the original Alien, but lighter. I recommend wearing this one in warmer weather as it is a zesty summer spritz kind of fragrance. It is long lasting and intriguing. I always receive compliments when I wear it. The bottles are always amazing - the Alien series of fragrance bottles remind me of the aliens in Luc Besson's movie The Fifth Element!

I recieved this masterpiece in a swapp,(Thank you so much dear giovanna) I wasn´t sure if I was going to like it,all I can think about is to collect all aliens,no matter if I like it or not.. So I really really really love this one.. It´s so sad to be a limited edition,why!? It,shouldn´t be,Mr Mugler could get so much money for it,don´t know the idea of make limited editions,it must be forbidden!! I´m so glad I own this one,and a huge detail,is that it lasts forever,just got it this week,and already recieved many compliments..only used one spray in my wirst,and it was enough.. If you still can find it, what are you waiting for!? I say GO FOR IT :)

It finally comes to my realization that all Aliens are white flower bomb with the strength and (gourmand) sweetness as the variation of each version. Wonder why it takes me so long!?

Bottome line, I am NEVER a fan of a white flower. A gardenia is okay but definitely not tuberose nor certain kind of jasmine. For this version of Alien, Tiare flower dominates the way. Citrus is very muted. It's not too light, not too heavy, but it is still pretty florally sweet. It's torelable in a nice way. I find it warm and very exotic like a hula girl in a tropical hot weather.

I may not be using this much or much at all, but I am such a sucker for this beautiful bottle. Again, this is for someone who likes white flowers or is open minded to the idea of finding "the Alien" he/she may like.

This is an interesting one, & now that I own this fragrance I understand why it is not classified - because it is constantly changing (at least for me)! Therefore, it would be quite hard to classify.

Straight out of the bottle, it smells VERY strongly of grapefruit (one of my favourite foods, as well as notes)! And upon first spray, it does smell very strongly of this, but I also detect wild lavender! It's pretty thick & intense upon this first spray... Then it mellows out & the wild lavender scent fades, leaving the grapefruit. So it becomes citrusy. Then, the grapefruit takes a backseat & the jasmine comes out, turning this into a sharp white floral. Next, I detect an element in this which is almost spicy, like paprika. And then finally it dries down into a creamy vanilla scent, almost exactly the same as the dry down of Amarige Mariage (on me)!!!

Wow!!! That was definitely unexpected. I would describe this as a warm floral citrus scent which dries down into a creamy vanilla.

But notes aside, to me, this smells like happiness! The dry down of Amarige Mariage almost makes me feel sad. I don't know why. But this makes me feel happy & confident. And the warm vanilla dry down makes me feel very comforted...

I really like this. Fascinating fragrance, beautiful bottle & evocative of such positive emotions!! I would definitely associate this with a sunset on a beautiful summers day.

I was really excited about this one - wanted to try something new, so I got some samples off Ebay. At first spray, it smelled like Skin So Soft. Now, 30 min later, it smells like grapefruit scented Skin So Soft. :(
I'm still trying to decide if I like it or not, but I'm leaning towards putting it back on Ebay.

No doubt a Thierry Mugler scent and never would have tried if it wasn't for an over enthusiastic SP who "attacked" me with it at the department store. Normally find TM scary... a bit out of my comfort zone, but this one is not bad at all. Not sweet at all, clean and almost soapy. Definitely not for wall flowers. When I got back to the office the immediate reaction was "oh, someone went perfume spraying again" :-) Won't buy this one though... can't stand to smell myself the whole day & usually end up with a headache at the end. My best is to get a lovely whiff every now and then as I go about my business. This is too in my face (so to speak) for my liking.

Today it's wet-flurries with a cool -1celcius. Why do I share the weather with you? You will soon find out. I was given a sample from a lovely member. Thank you Trax. Thierry Mugler, the name always bring up anxiety for me. I go into automatic omg this is going to knock me out. But no, this is a superb squirt of sunlight rays beaming with citrus lemonade effect with a dab of sweetness. Oh I wish this wasn't a limited edition, this is a perfect fragrance for bland days like today. A great mood lifter for those who could be effected by a lack of sunlight or grey days. Bottle worthy for me.

my signature. i love love it. :) something unusual in it. :) perfetto

This Alien flanker got me into the whole Alien range.
Sunessence Saphir Soleil is a great scent.
If you use Alien regularly, you might think this is a great summer fragrance.
I still find it a bit too heavy in comparison to all the other summer scents in the shops.
But still, I love wearing it.
As it was a special edition and is no longer available I use it sparingly.
This Alien opens with fresh and feminine notes.
The grapefruit note in particular is sooo juicy and makes me want to spray more and more on my skin.
The drydown is similar to the real Alien, but still fresh, warm and fruity.
After a whole day I can still smell the difference between the original and this one and I must say that I really do like it.
The yellow Alien sunessence and the original share more similarities but this is the perfect scent for someone who regularly stands in front of the Mugler shelf, sniffs Alien and is not sure whether to like it or not.

I had a sample and it didn't last...I really like this one too! Great for daytime and summer! Grapefruit! I love summer scents that have grapefruit in them because when they dry down it smells soooo sexy. Your hair will smell good, your skin smells good, and your clothes smells good. It lingers for a longtime, Very sexy scent! It smells like Alien but with a citrus touch.

I like this incarnation of Alien (which BTW is my all time favorite perfume), it's a lighter sweeter summer version but on me it smells too much like the original to buy it.

AS much as I despise Angel,I love this one.It smells like a tuned up angel.BEAUTIFUL citrus and amber.Right up there with Alien!I think this would b great for any age any time,any where!

What a pretty, softly sweet and citrus fragrance! I must say, I love this even more than original Alien. While I am going to enjoy Alien Sunessence this summer, I could see myself wearing this just as often in the winter. The pink grapefruit note in this is a juicy, true citrus. I cannot think of a better pick me up.
The notes used for this lovely concoction read rather simple and that is fine by me because they come together seamlessly. I suspect that this fragrance would wear well on just about any woman of any age. After nearly 4 hours, I still smell the softness of the amber and suprisingly, the pink grapefruit is still present. I wish that these Sunessence versions weren't limited editions. Side note: After about 20 minutes on my skin, this smells nearly identical to Stella McCartney's Stella, (which I also own and adore). The only difference being the grapefruit note, of course.

A fantastic version of Alien,sweet and sparkly with the essence of the original Alien.Really beautiful bottle too,highly on my wishlist for sure..

A lovely fruity fragrance which differs completely from Thierry's preevious 'Alien' fragrances which are much more heavy/woody/musky/sweeter. A perfect summer perfume.

wow im in love with this its going to be perfect for summer evenings!! i love summer smells they make me feel alive ! just gutted its a limited edition .

This smells so amazing and the bottle is beautiful! Its really out of the world and glows! I have to be honest Its really uplifting and fresh while still keeping the alien signature! Bravo Mugler!

i got my bottle today. I love it and the grapefruit is so divine! I am happy I nabbed a bottle of this.

I tried it 2day and it was nice. Nothing amazing. Just nice. Its my least favorite from the Aliens. The yellow sunessence was way better. I wish I had gotten me a bottle of that one.
