Thierry Mugler Angel Men Pure Coffee

Angel Men Pure Coffee starts off as the name implies. It’s like walking into Starbucks and smelling the caramel macchiato brewing. It begins with an overdose of roasted coffee beans then develops into a muted concoction of sweet delights. There are nuances of milk, chocolate and bittersweet cocoa that marries well into a perfect blend. The scent is disarming at first whiff then invariably dissipates to warm and comforting dry down of slightly gourmand notes.

Chandler Burr of Scent Notes (New York Times) defined it as effortlessly pleasing and jarringly direct. He said, “At first you frown, hesitate. Are you missing something? Is this a joke? You smell it and think reflexively about getting to work. It’s coffee. (Nagel and Huclier used, among other materials, a natural coffee absolute.) Give it a few seconds, and its ingeniousness starts unfolding from your skin; this tasse de café smells the way the hyper-real close-up photography of Robert Mapplethorpe looks: both absurdly, mockingly literal and overtly surreal in its hyper-literalness. It forces you to reconsider your routine 8:30am scent in a completely new light.”

This fragrance is nowhere near being the old-school masculine type of perfume. You’ll get a healthy dose of gourmand notes with emphasis on the aromatic air of freshly roasted coffee beans. It is one of those fragrances that are difficult to get over with. It's addictive and the aroma is as good as a rich cup of creamy white mocha latte.

Thierry Mugler fragrances are noticeably fierce at the beginning. Too much of it and you’ll be blown away by the richness of the notes combined. But surprisingly, once it diffuses, it calms and opens up to a more pleasing scent – elegant and sensual.

If you have a penchant for gourmand-inspired scents, whether it’s chocolates, candies or gourmet coffee, the Mugler perfumes fit that description perfectly.
