I loved it, purchased my first bottle when I returned home, and since have associated it with Paris. Little did I know it would become such a great hit and classic.Karinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17001466492578674627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4922907157797061660.post-61864740722834790952012-09-11T00:29:52.187+02:002012-09-11T00:29:52.187+02:00Marla, yup, I've had that encounter with the A...Marla, yup, I've had that encounter with the Angel of Death... Oddly, though I've never worn any Mugler fragrance other than for testing purposes, I'm a fangirl as well. It's practically the only mainstream brand that's not afraid to take risks.carmencanada /Grain de Muschttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04046101625425953248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4922907157797061660.post-60510438017061271682012-09-10T19:43:49.311+02:002012-09-10T19:43:49.311+02:00I'm one of those who love Angel, I wrote and p...I'm one of those who love Angel, I wrote and published my personal story about it several years ago on PST. However, Angel surely becomes the Angel of Death if oversprayed! My favorite is the powder, just a microdab lasts all day, but it's not overpowering. Based on Angel, Alien,and Mugler Cologne, I'll always be a Mugler Fangirl! Thanks for the interesting history.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12888328097434089820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4922907157797061660.post-88341327951396724212012-09-10T10:59:27.353+02:002012-09-10T10:59:27.353+02:00Lanier, my pleasure!

I'd also be curious to know whether they wrote back -- lots did at the time, I am told, but back in the mid-90s internet was a lot less common so people had more reasons to put pen to paper. Apparently Clarins has files and files of those stories, drawings, collages, etc.carmencanada /Grain de Muschttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04046101625425953248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4922907157797061660.post-71053239598685346552012-09-10T08:50:36.502+02:002012-09-10T08:50:36.502+02:00The story is wonderful and inspiring.

I am going to ask each one if she sent back her note card and what did she write. <br />What a wonderful read you gave me. <br />Merci beaucoup!Lanier Smithhttp://sentsmemory.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
