Industry players remembered a visionary creator.
By the late ‘90s, Angel topped Chanel No.5 in the prestige rankings in France, and achieved leading positions in many countries for decades following its introduction. Last year, it ranked fifth in France and 12th in Europe among women’s fragrances.Vera Strubi, who launched Angel and retired at the end of 2006 as president of Thierry Mugler Parfums Worldwide, convinced Mugler that he should base his perfume on themes present in his fashion shows.
Today, Alien remains a blockbuster, placing as the 10th best-selling women’s fragrance in Europe in 2021. Overall, Mugler fragrances, which also include the Aura, Womanity and Innocent franchises, ranked sixth in Europe and 15th worldwide last year.in March 2020, called Thierry Mugler “a true visionary without whom the fashion and beauty world would not have been the same.”
Courtin-Clarins said the Mugler fragrances pushed boundaries in beauty, and she recalled the designer was not one to compromise. “He was always wanting to break the codes, and he had no limits in his head…[about] what beauty and fashion should be,” she added. She recalled that women, and how they considered his creations, were always paramount for Mugler, who gleaned inspiration from everything from architecture to design and photography.
“It was a favorite motto that he applied to his fashion as well as to his life and work. Everything about him was excess and the search for perfection, everything was a challenge,” said Palix.
