| Description: Mugler said he wanted a perfume that smelled of the funfairs of his childhood, of candyfloss, toffee apples and chocolate bars. Olivier Cresp, the perfumer, added another inspired funfair note, patchouli, which reminded him of the bittersweet smell of sawdust. Angel is also very fruity in the top notes. It's the most extreme, but also one of the most successful, of the gourmand fragrances of the 1990s. As Jane Withering writes in her poem Wicked Chocolate, 'Twill make old women young and fresh, create new motions of the flesh'.
