Womanity. Tierry Mugler.

Thierry Mugler finally launches something new (perhaps) focusing now in a much wider general public and avoiding the unnecessary extension of the Angel or Alien's ranges.

Perfumist: Mane
Notes of fig, caviar and fig tree woods.

Despiste the feminine name and the horrid desing of the bottle dancing between the ghotic and the art decó, the juice is definitively unisex. It is extrangely interesting: a really unusual salty fig.
My first impression was a loud yet original sweet-sour perfume.

"Womanity" opens (and remains) linear with the thick and sharp note of the fig fruit catching wonderfuly the coconut-like undertone of it but lacking the characteristic greenish feeling of this fruit.
Mostly immediately the fig joins the stage with a weird salty note coming from the caviar that to me smells like fresh open shellfish as for instance, oysters.
It is a mainly fruity perfume with the dense salty, mysterious note of caviar. It is therefore a full-fledged gourmand perfume, foody (seafood) and carnal-frity.
The fragrance stays heady with great salty fruit touches and just after a few hours after apply the soft woody nuances come to life just as a whisper and then is when the fragrance becomes a little quieter.

My honest opinion: this is a very well done, addictive perfume.
A weird masterpiece where powerful contrast of elements merge beautifuly.
It has a fresh aura without having citric notes; it is welcoming , intimate, comforting as well as unique.

It is surprisely marked as a definitely feminine scent like it has happened before with Angel. Not to my nose and for some many other men noses around.
Both are masterpieces and both had not a single flower in the note list.
The funny thing about it is I own both in my perfume collection and I wear them with much confidence while I recieve loads of positive complimets.
Where have all the open-minded perfumist fans gone?

It has a decent long lasting (up to 7 hours) and the sillage is quite amazing leaving behind you a beautiful trail.
