Best place for designed perfume (Alien)

With xmas coming very fast this year, there is a certain brand of perfume (called Alien) I want to buy for my girlfriend after heavily hinting she wants this perfume this xmas.

Where is the place to go (Store in London or Online) to buy this at the cheapest possible price? The larger the bottle the better

Re: Best place for designed perfume (Alien)

I thought this may be a wind up as I couldn't believe it possible that any girl would want to buy a perfume called Alien so I Googled it and came up with the following review from fragrance.net

Quote:
scent strength: moderate
scent life: 6-10 hours
recommended use: casual
recommended age: mature
classification: oriental/spicy
I have a sneaking suspicion that "mature" is marketing speak for "granny"

She wont be the one that is buying it though, I will!

Its a shame though that the only ones they sell are in really small bottles, rather than the calvin klein that come in really large, long life bottles.

I think the largest size they do is 60ml

That's right Ian. I sat on a survey panel sampling Thierry Mugler perfumes and Alien was mainly aimed at the senior/mature clientele. And after smelling it we all agreed it was the kind of smell you'd imagine that wierd-old-aunt-that-everyone-has would wear.

I take it she already has Angel then? This being their flagship parfume.

The other ones in the female range are the Garden of Stars Collection: Peony Angel/Lily Angel/Violet Angel
