Aura Mugler Eau de Toilette

This is a review coming from someone who generally does not like Mugler fragrances. Don't shoot me! I do think this house is brilliant, has always been ahead of the curve; and influenced a lot of current favourites. Angel is probably the grand daddy of sweet vanillic perfumes taking over the market. My chemistry and nose just don't jive with most Mugler scents. But! BUT! I really love Aura EDT. I originally got this because as I said, I respect Mugler and really want to see if I can find something that works for me. This is right up my alley. Fresh, green, white florals, with base notes that are not too dark and woody. The fruits stay throughout wear, with the rhubarb and citrus providing a nice juicy tartness. I can detect a hint of jasmine and definitely the green notes. I also get a very distinct clean cinnamon, not sure where that's coming from or it's just not noted. The base notes are not distinct, but helps add sweetness and a powdery clean feel. It's not basic and has notes that you don't usually see together. You can really tell it's Mugler's twist on a fresh fruity fragrance. He got the assignment right. If you usually lean towards Calvin Klein over Mugler, this may be one for you.

This is definitely an 'easier' companion to the EDP - the pear note is very noticeable at the start, I do still get the medicinal/root-beer note, but it's much less prominent compared to the clear fruitiness. After trying the EDP in a store and being really impressed by how persistently it lasts I was somewhat disappointed to find it wears down in a few hours, but it's still very distinctive and worthwhile in its way. Definitely suited to the summer and humidity, just like the EDP - what pushed me to buy it for myself was the heavy heatwave we've been experiencing in the UK this summer, weather that I didn't own any scent to compete with. Both this one and its more assertive, bold sister are very well-suited to Mugler as a brand, just like Alien: strange, but clearly sexy. This one's definitely still got the kookiness, but it's understated enough to be suitable for a lot of time on sweaty tubes and in the office while still really coming into its own outdoors in a heatwave.

Like almost everyone here has said—this is a fresher, fruitier, and more candy-like interpretation of Aura EDP. By all accounts, I should feel as though Aura EDT is the easier-to-wear Aura. Somehow, though, I almost wonder if this one is weirder than the original? I could feel that way because I’ve gotten used to the original (and maybe I just haven’t gotten used to this one yet, and once I do, it will seem unremarkable next to the original). Regardless, Mugler has added a sour-candy smell to what is already a strange green-vanilla fragrance, and I love it. It’s so so so weird, just as Aura EDP is. But if Aura EDP is a fierce goddess, I’d say Aura EDT is a delicate dryad. I cannot wait to wear it in the spring and summer! If you’re a fan of the original EDP, try this. If you’re not a fan of the original EDP, still try this. If you’ve never smelled any of the Auras, I highly recommend you do, if only to appreciate what works of art they are!

EDT version is very energising and fresh. It feels good. Sometimes I can smell some of the juicy, delicious pear. Sometimes it's just greenery, citruses and freshness. As usual, longevity and projection is a bit worse than EDP, but it's still pretty OK on my skin. I love the original Aura EDP as well. I have made an observation (which might be just a coincidence). When I wear EDP by itself I never get compliments. Lately I decided to mix EDT and EDP together, for EDT by itself is more summery/spring than autumn. I scored 3 compliments from seats around me during one hour lecture. I guess I found my new go to combo, for they compliment each other very nicely. EDT makes EDP less sweet, less heavy, while EDP kind of calms and dillutes the raw green freshness of the EDT as well as makes it last longer. The flacon is paler/more transparent shade of green. Mersmerising to watch.

I fell in love with Aura in Europe, when I tested the perfume in a perfume shop. I kept on sniffing my wrist for the whole day, admiring how unique the scent was, so amazed by the projection and the sillage. Still, I didn’t want to commit to such an important scent and few days after, I started by buying the scented lotion. Dark green, animalic, enigmatic, mystic and cozy: I felt the perfume was made for me, I felt like I found the one. I was puzzled because I was in love with such a strange perfume, a perfume that made me feel uncomfortable for its uniqueness and made me feel cozy at the same time, because I recognized it as a familiar scent. I researched online and found out that it’s a kind of perfume that you either love or hate. I will always love it. I now own the EDP and EDT, in their beautiful green heart shaped bottles that seem to perfectly match the scent.

This is just gorgeous!! Aura EDT was a blind buy, but I love Sensuelle and the EDP so I knew this was a no-brainer for me. I'm so happy with it! To me, Aura EDP is like a forest in the fall, with a thick bed of wet and decaying leaves giving that earthy pungent aroma. On the other hand, Aura EDT is like a meadow in the spring, blooming with wildflowers and bright green grass, warm from the afternoon sun. The word that comes to mind when I smell this is BRIGHT. It is the brighter version of Aura, while Sensuelle is the sweeter version. Slightly fruity, slightly floral, green in a mossy way versus a leafy way. It's not airy like some 'green' fragrances, there is still some body here to keep with the Aura DNA. All in all, if you appreciate the Aura line this will be a great addition to your collection. The spring/summer Aura!

On my skin, Aura is a total chameleon. Every time I sniff my wrist, I detect a different note. First I smell rhubarb, then green grassy florals like a garden after the rain. There's something minty in the background, which is interesting..it reminds me of the mint leaf my mom used to grow, it smells natural not synthetic. The musky base notes smell sweet to me, which somehow blends perfectly with the sour rhubarb. So sweet, sour, grassy and minty all within the first 15 minutes. Finally it settles down into a green floral. If you enjoy unique perfume, give this one a sniff, it's so multi faceted, you might really love it! I would not recommend it for a blind buy... even though I blind bought mine! I got lucky, I think she's a goddess wrapped in green vines and flowers and just the kind of thing I love.

Aura is my favorite perfume, but when it comes to the scent itself, I find the eau de toilette even better than the original. They're very close, but the EdT is less loud, less sweet and has a wonderful fresh fruity note that must be the pear. It's young, very happy and energetic. It's softer and a bit more consensual, enough to be easier to wear around other people. It's also much more migraine-friendly than the EdP. The only downsides : the non-refillable bottle and the pretty short longevity, about 4 hours compared to a whole day with Aura EdP. But these two complete each other nicely : the EdT's freshness is perfect on Spring and Summer days, whereas the intense sweetness of the EdP shines on Fall and Winter nights. I own both.

Absolutely love this! Especially for transition weather. Very successful blind buy. The original Aura is a bit harder on the senses I would say. I have been loving the scent of Palmolive Milk and Olive shower gel and wondering which perfume smells like it - and this one does! Elated when I discovered that. At least more than any other perfume I've worn. Powdery, clean and green is what I would describe it as. In the same vain as Springtime in the park, Eternity Moment and Marc Jacobs Perfect I would say, but its sweeter or more candy like than the first two and slightly more green and animalic than all of them. Lasts for ages on clothing for being and edt

The comment that says this smells like Palmolive (such a nice story btw) - you’re so right. I’m kind of shocked at how much Palmolive I got when I first sprayed it, a warm fluffy sudsy blast. The drydown is musky and super sweet, but with a hint of bitter herbs. Maybe it’s the power of suggestion with the green bottle, maybe it reminds me a little of Rave hair gel, but overall the smell makes me think of J Lo’s Waiting For Tonight video with the gold body glitter, green lasers, and sweaty dancers in low rise jeans. I think this is a great fragrance for a summer night out with friends, getting blisters in cute new sandals.

I love this EDT. Been testing it for a couple of days. If you like pear scents then you might like this. But it’s not candy like, it’s fresh. Also if you like green scents like Lauren for women from the 80s or Kate spade truly gracious, I think you would also enjoy this. The feedback I got when wearing it was that it’s not good for my workplace, LOL, people said it’s more like a date night fragrance. So it’s still strong for an EDT. I got about 8 hrs out of it with medium sillage. I recommend at least spritzing a little on next time you are near the perfume counter and then see what you think.

Wow, if ure a lover of green fresh scents, ull have a good time sniffing ur arm for hours. Its like mystical waterfalls and flowers. Suits the ad well. I love it, its light, green with the right amount of sweetness. An evening time scent very calming. Escapes the typical crowd pleasing heavy sweet girly perfumes I usually get from the high end designers. It soon starts reminding me of Bath & Body Works Sweet Pea perfume, both contain pear, but this is hella better with more depth and more sweetness. The bottle is gorgeous, looks like a diamond ud extract from a freshwater cave. ill buy it

This smells nothing initially to me like the EDP. Instead on my skin it starts as a glorious burst of lily of the valley and lilacs (yes, I know they aren't in there but that's what it does on me), eventually shifting to a lovely and serene pear with other fruits and gorgeous iris - and dries down to that old yummy vanilla and woods - ah... there's the original peeking out! But the longevity is not as good as the EDP. I didn't try enough to tell about the silage. Perhaps that's why it disappeared about 8 hours later.

I dont know why this isn't rated higher, this scent is beautiful! Yes, it's a green scent but it still has a sweet side that's really pretty and makes it so wearable. I'm so sad it's discontinued and will be on the lookout for the EDP to add to my collection if i still can. The pear brings a light sweetness and the rhubarb adds to the fruity tones without being overly fruit bowl-esque This is great for the spring/summer and would highly recommend grabbing a bottle if you can find it.

I own this now and have to say it is in my top 3 favourites of all time. Wow, talk about unique which is what I love. I highly recommend wearing this in spring when it's raining because for some reason the scent transforms on wet skin. I think Mugler wears really well on my skin because I always get compliments when I wear this. It smells like vanilla bean, fresh grass, rhubarb leaves and spearmint, sounds weird but it's absolutely luscious.

Accidentally bought this when I meant to buy the EDP but no worries at all because oh wow this is pretty - reaffirms rhubarb as one of my all time favourite notes. Enough green intrigue in the opening to set it apart but the sweet middle and heart is gorgeous. Such a happy accident for me as I think I actually like it more than the EDP. Sillage and longevity both sitting around a 7/10

I loooove this scent... I could wear it all the time... I did... my bottle is empty and it's not in production anymore :-(. I had not seen the comments about palmolive and now... all I smell is that haha. At first yes it does smell like that but the sillage is just great. You can really smell the rhubarb... the green fruit... it's fresh, tangy... very green.

Aura Eau de Toilette has the same beautiful, eerie opening as the Eau de Parfum. Just less. Not in gorgeousness, but intensity. Once it dries down is wear the beauty lies, with a creamy vanilla and gardenia with sweet ambrette to hold it up. It is stunning and I'm shocked to see the hatred for it. Just as bizzare as one would hope from a Mugler. Good going!

Aura EDT is a sweet, fruity, definately sugary-green scent to me. Has the unique DNA of Aura edp, but is much more easy to wear for me. This is mainly a spring and summer scent, but can be enjoyed all year around. Lasting power and projection are very moderate in the cold, dry weather. Maybe it changes a little, when it gets warmer. I hope so.

This is my new signature scent. Blind buy from Winners that made me really nervous but OMG, it's how a lush green rainforest jungle goddess would smell. Jmama26 is right, it literally brings you to another place, it's so nice. I got compliments from a 20 year old , 50 year old, and a 60 year old, so so far it is a crowd pleaser among all ages.
