A beloved Mugler fragrance that customers adore has been discounted in a rare sale at Boots. TheAlien Refillable Eau De Parfum 30ml - arguably one of the brand's most iconic scents - has seen its price cut by 20% on the health and beauty retailer's website.

One customer described the Marc Jacobs scent as 'one of my favourite daily perfumes' reports OK!. The fragrance features notes of daffodil and blooming jasmine, along with sandalwood and roasted almonds.

Another option isYves Saint Laurent's Libre Eau De Parfum (30ml) that one LookFantastic customer said 'lasts a long time'. It's been discounted on the beauty retailer's website from £72 to £58 and carries notes of tangerine, neroli, and jasmine.

If customers have their sights set on Mugler's Alien perfume, it's worth noting that while the classic scent boasts a 4.8 star rating out of five at Boots, not all customers are fans.

One customer remarked: "This fragrance was good for the first couple of hours after applying it. Half way through the evening the fragrance was almost gone. For the price of it I do not think it is worth the money."

Another described it as 'rather overpowering.' As a beauty writer, I'd say Alien is suitable for both day and night, and whilst it's sweet, it's not too sickly.

Despite mixed opinions, the perfume, which boasts over 1,800 reviews on Boots, has a legion of admirers. A satisfied customer shared in their review: "Wow! What can I say? It is amazing! I bought this perfume over a year ago now since I smelt it on many people and I couldn't resist not asking them what it is as it smells absolutely amazing.

"It is such a feminine scent and is very strong which means a little goes a long way as it lasts all day." Shoppers can purchase the Muglier Alien perume here.
