Eau de Star (for women)

guynspfld

Well I expected to be enveloped in the smell of patchouli and vanilla. Sadly, I thought it smelled like very bad feminine hygiene. I was looking for something for my Mom and happened upon this. She loves Angel and from reading the reviews I didnt think I could go wrong. Well I sprayed some on my hand and walked around the store. I let someone smell it and they made a face. The more I smelled it the more I was wanted to vomit. I cannot believe Thierry Mugler was behind this. I was thinking it was a bad bottle or something, but I smelled it again and WOW IT DIDNT CHANGE!!! Sorry, but a bomb

As mentioned before (see my review on "Angel") Thierry Mugler's fragrances are not for everyone! You either love or hate them. "Eau de Star" therefore is no exception!

Again a friend of mine (who generously let me try some of her beloved "Angel" before) had a bottle of "Eau de Star" which she seldom used. She did not liked it very much and wanted to get rid of it…..She instead had asked me if I would like to have this fragrance and so I came into the possession of a bottle of nearly untouched "Eau de Star" 50 ml …..! :-)

At first, I did not liked it very much either! Too much watermelon in the opening! I do not like watermelon in a fragrance….(reminds me of "L'eau d'Issey" which I truly detest!) Luckily, the watermelon is not as dominant and rather soft and nice…..
As other reviewers mentioned before me, the aquatic note is clearly noticeable and makes this an interesting "Angel – Aqua" mix.
Not as strong as the original "Angel", which I think would rather suits colder weather, but very nice to wear for spring and the upcoming summer month.

I like "Eau de Star" very much….it is not too sweet and plays again on the male/female role. This would smell nice on a man too….if he has the guts to wear it ;-)

Very fresh and aquatic. It is not so sweet as Angel. I would call it "The Ocean Angel". Not one of my favourite scents but it`s ok.

very nice bottle for this fragrance, I dont like this as much as Rose Angel, but like alot of Thierry Mugler fragrances, is long lasting.

I agree that this one is an interesting smell.

Not sweet, kind of watered down. I did not like it much - but someone that thinks original Angel to be "too much" can like it and appreciate it. If it was my call, I would name it Innocence - it has something very pure in it...the absence of sensuality, despite of a pronounced patchouli accord.

yum! when i first sprayed this on my wrists, i thought it would be disgusting! the first spray smells sour and harsh to me, but once it settles into your skin, it smells sweet and woody to me and i like it. its simple and the smell stays the same throughout the course. i wasn't sure at first. in fact i was like this is going to be another overrated expensive perfume, but it turned out to be great!

Smells just like Angel to me.I don't like either because they smell musky and caramelish but not in a gourmand way more like a stale way.

trvevil has described this perfume the best way.although it hasn't any of gourmand sweet angel notes,it's still a Thierry Mugler perfume and I can find it out from a 100 km distance!
I can't say whether I like it or not.it's a little like Alien,but less warmer and less overwhelming and it's very similar to "stella in two" and the reason is clear.the notes are about the same.but this one is stronger than that.
although I mentioned it's less annoying perfume in Thierry Mugler perfumes,still it becomes a little overpowering for me after a while.
I think it has some hints from the seas and oceans too.maybe it's me but I smell something like the ocean.
totally if you like Thierry Muglers works,this would be good for you,but if you don't like his works,this one has nothing to offer you.

I love it. Thus far, this is my favourite version of Angel. Works well on guys too. GREAT!!!

What happens when you lose your beloved Angel bottle in ocean and leave it there for a while? You'll get this Eau de Star perfume! It's like Angel, but ocean washed away over-sweetness. I like the way the Angel base is 'looking through' the aquatic notes. It has 'nose stick to the bottle' effect too.
And staying power for EDT is awesome. Also I like the star inside the bottle.
For them who can't stand the over-sweetness of original. Very cool for summer, it's refreshing. Will be my spring/summer favorite .

A sweet, fresh summer scent which will delight you! It is quite zesty:)

maschin

a very aquatic version of angel..fresh and nice for summer but it can't be compared with the original angel which is much sweeter and vanillary.i totally prefer angel..

When I think about Thierry Mugler's fragrances , I think 'gourmand' and oriental,and something you can put on the dining table would it be foodie,oriental or else..

this discovery surprised me greatly, since I haven't expected to get strong animal-like odour/urine along. And I've found this facet to be extremely strong, as pronounced as it is in JOY by Pateau, only less flowers more sugar. I couldn't bear it so I wasn't too analytical about everything else in it.

Mugler's Angel takes a dip in the ocean. An unusual combination of marine notes stacked on Angel's yummy gourmand base. Sounds strange, but on the skin, it's a gorgeous combo. Nothing will replace Angel for me, but this one is a worthwhile diversion. The sillage and persistance is remarkable for an EDT, too.

amanda

its a lighter and fresher version of angel, it has sg in common with l'eau par kenzo because of the honey smell. I prefer this one to angel which is too srtong and overhelming for me

rebella

This fragrance has become one of my summerfavourites. It is really refreshing and nice in hot weather.

rebella

At first it smells exactly as the hot honeywater my mother used to give me when I was small and have a cold. It´s really comforting and nice. Not long after there comes a herbal note... it smells a bit strange really... not bad, but unusual. The heart of this perfume is very much patcholi, but still not in a dominant or hippie way... soft, lingering and still familiar. Nice.

The drydown is very yummie... caramell, vanilla and wood. Caramell without being sweet... it´s actually very nice like a caramell fragrance for a more mature women.

There isn´t anything floralfruity about this so I absolutly recommend it if you want to try an unique fragrance that isn´t to heavy or dominant.

very different,interesting smell,I like it much more that the original Angel

jeca

This perfume is not so sweet as the original, Angel, with highlight on woody tones. Not bad, but Angel is better ;o)
