A*Men / Angel Men (1996)
by Thierry Mugler

wanted to like it to sweet though for me not a bad frag though just not for me

YES, this mens cologne is one that you realy need to be very carefule when you put this on,to much can hurt, to long ,well the smell can realy stink,i mean it will smell like an old folk fragrnce, BUT ,when done rite this can be a awesome scent, my advice get it all, cologne, shower gel, deodarent spray this is a keeper i also think its awesome that each cologne has a commic book hero story for its fragrance this is very kool, so be careful with this one..... til next time SUPER HEROS WANTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Far too sweet for me. I'm also not sure why they didn't go for a smooth velvet-like chocolate note in this rather than the cheap smelling powdered chocolate I get from this. Might just be my nose.
Yeah, it's clever but it's not pleasant to me. My Dad sometimes wears this, which I found hysterical, but it smells better on him than on me, so maybe it's a skin thing. I don't mind the tar note on it's own, but mixed with the coffee and chocolate, it gets a bit acrid.

The bottle is cool, but pretty ugly. Two sprays lasts forever and everyone knows you're wearing it. Too rich for my blood.

I have no idea who would want to smell like this. As much as I like the smell of chicken soup, I do not wish to smell like a bowl of it. Maybe I just don't "get" gourmands.

If you went to the mall and sprayed this and made your decision in 5 minutes, you probably wouldn't like it. It is of course super sweet when you first spray it, and you'll think god I smell like a candy store or something. But after an hour or so, it is delicious and lasts sooo long. This is a "one spray, all day" scent. 12hr+ . One spray will not be too much, even in summer, in fact I like it in summer cuz it does last through a long hot day and still smells good. Could it be a bit feminine? yeah, I could see my mom wearing this... you could argue it doesn't really smell like cologne... I could see someone saying they wouldn't want their body smelling like this.. like Polo Double Black, smells like nag champa incense, which smells great, but in a dorm room not on my body... I still like this and wear it, plus alot of people don't like it.... please keep hating it so less people wear it...

Its my favorite from my wardrobe. I wear it at work whenever i want to be energized (the chocolate notes makes my senses alive). I wear it during weekends when all i have to do all day is to cuddle with teh wife. I wear it on nights you want to be naughty :D I wear it during clubbings when everyone in the club is wearing ADG or Isseyl :)
A unique frag that shows all the notes from top to base notes. I never get tired of smelling this on my skin. I also last all day on my skin until i get an evening shower.

Use it sparingly though, you don't want offending others when putting on too much :)

Aromatherapy? Aromatorture. Not part of the "cult." This is for me gourmand minus much real comfort with a clear option for the presentational. Here's the chocolate, here's the coffee, maybe some mint and the old standby of lavander to lift your spirits? Did you catch the patchouli? Like coming down from a sugar high, ultimately "brooding," depressing.
