This fragrance is an unsung masterpiece. She is the beloved young princess of the Mugler kingdom who spends her days eating marzipan covered berries and Turkish delight, and her evenings being bathed in vanilla scented bubbles before being powdered and put to bed. There is an ease to this scent that you won’t find in the complicated neuroses of her cousin Angel, or the flamboyant antics of her sister Alien, but her composition is indisputable quality Mugler. She is timeless, precious, and beautiful.

I am glad it’s still available here and there. I remember it has sweet and gentle scent, like a puffy cloudy essence. This perfume probably comes closer to angel and heaven description than original. It’s diplomatic and peacemaker in Mugler’s perfume family. Besides significant aquatic notes, it has soft musky sugary almonds. It smells more gourmand than anything from Mugler.
PACTAMAH321 – :
This smells like a lighter version of angel sucree to me. The crispy sweet berries with some depth from the praline and almonds but without the patchouli. Very lovely, but I think I’ll stick to my angel sucree for better performance.
serggo25 – :
It smells like my grandma’s red currant syrup.
Overly sweet red currant syrup + rusted jar cover (metal note)
vova_93 – :
This is a really nice, honeyed, powdery almond scent. I honestly can’t smell much fruit in this. It’s very soft and wearable and I think it could work all year round but I would probably like it best on a cool, spring day as a casual everyday scent. I particularly enjoy wearing this one after the bath at night because it seems to envelop you in a soft, powdery, fluffy cloud and adds a gentle comforting/clean feeling. My only complaint is that I wish it projected more. It stays very close to the skin and I really can’t smell it very well unless I stick my nose right up to it. It would work really nicely for those days when you don’t want to be heavily perfumed but you still want to smell nice.
PA_nda – :
Well, I like it a lot! It is fresh, clean and sweet at the same time. Reminds me of Liberty Fizz by Nina Ricci which I miss dearly. Same vibe, same freshness and clean smell. Love it!
pered21 – :
This is a lovely chocolate musk which also manages to smell fresh and clean perhaps due to the almonds which creates a marzipan aroma. Very easy to wear no one could be offended by it so safe for the office – very comforting.
Shtolzer – :
Innocent really holds its name proudly as this is a citrusy, sweet, cheerful fragrance.
I am not sure why so many reviewers have likened this to Angel eau de toilette as Innocent is definitely part of another category.
Both myself and my mum are Thierry Mugler perfumes fans and we both love this perfume.
This is a happy summer fragrance and the longevity and the sillage are also there.
Why has it been discontinued in shops? Anyway, it is still available on TM’s website and at the duty free shops.
nanikusa – :
I really adore Angel , but this one is at least I like of all Mugler`s . Too dry and never rich enough to like for me
aidarik – :
“Industrial clean” category for sure but balanced by sweet notes. I actually would love if they made dryer sheets with scent. Love the drydown, it’s just so much better than skin – sweet and fuzzy. It does veer a teeny tiny bit masculine (but I’d say still in the realm of unisex) in the dry down, I notice it after about 4-5 hours, but I actually think the scent at that point is more sexy than the fresher/clean scent in the opening. For daytime or the office, has decent lasting power 6-8 hrs, last couple hours sits pretty close to the skin. I generally am not really into “clean musks” but this one works.
Edit: One of the very few bottles that I have obsessively bought a back-up bottle.
azl036speagoessenda – :
I am testing this today from a sample the Mugler sent with my order of Angel Muse. I am a true Angel addict. In that vein, I am a little surprised at Innocent. It veers woody on my skin and reminds me of my husband’s cologne. As with all Mugler fragrances, I’m going to keep trying this because first impressions are not always accurate.
Trojan_71 – :
I didn’t have high hopes to come back and write a second review but here I am!
My sister gifted me body powder of TM innocent and I liked it’s smell on my skin.I can explain it as musky redberries,something tart and clean with a hint of sweetness.I decided to go back to my perfume and wear it for at least three days
It’s difficult to believe my cruel previous review!
I still can see it as an angel family member and I still believe there’s patchouli in it.a hint of non dirty patchouli and I still can’t detect amber or almond.not really.but there’s something like nutty dark chocolate with a delicate hint of sweetness(praline on a diet?)blended with something patchouli-like(this accord stands as angel gene to me)
Biggest difference is in that point:now I enjoy it!maybe because lately I’m craving for clean/soapy/musky scents and innocent has a place in this group but is very different from usual clean scents.it’s not a Musky floral as they usually are.it’s a Musky fruity scent with a hint of nutty chocolate to keep it intresting and something woody/patchouli which blended with tartness of berries gives a masculine vibe to innocent,I find this masculine edge very charming and unique
It opens citrusy,fruity with mandarin,red berries and what I refer to as angel gene(chocolatey woody patchouli) but just a hint of tamed angel gene which has very small amount of sweetness.mandarin fades but sour redberries still as the most prominent note all through it’s life.dry down is a combination of sour redberries,slightly sweet patchouli,nutty dark chocolate and clean musk,even if there’s no patchouli in it and we consider it as nose tricks
this berry,chocolate,musk combo is very unique and not your typical clean scent.unlike my first review I see it as an intresting fragrance now
I’d definitely enjoy it more if it was sweeter or if I could detect powdery almonds but I’m sure even as it is I’ll crave it sometimes
It’s out of my comfort zone.redberries are too sour for my taste but they give innocent very fresh fruity sparks and are exactly what makes it something memorable
I almost disliked it.now I like it and who knows,I may love it some day
Sillage isn’t as big as original angel,still it’s very good as a fresh scent
I’m totally impressed.this made me believe in more in mugler perfumes
p.s:I don’t see it as an innocent scent.yes it’s very innocent comparing to original angel but as an individual perfume it has it’s own naughty twists and complexitys
❤❤❤❤
Dreysv – :
Oooh this is interesting. Me, a Thierry Mugler wearing? Incredible, I would have never guessed.
As I am patchouli hater through and through (the only patch I can handle is in the lovely mix of gucci rush),
I hesitated to spray this on me as I was afraid TM smuggled this dirty lady in here. But no. No P no atch.
The most comforting sweetness I sensed. Soapy sour, slightly minty. I disagree on the strong presence of a praline. It is more a natural sweetness as coming from a candied almond, just so much that I can handle it. Simply because everytime it comes up, the foam of liquid soap washes it away only till the sweetness wants to rise again. On and on. It is like a game between them, a gentle one, like a slow whip.
The sourness is – whoowee – like in my beloved Le Parfum Max Mara. Strong but soft with a hint of more like I don’t know… tobacco? No I am tripping, is it a hologram of nutmeg? I think I just went crazy, this sourness is vivid like caleidoscope.
Very versatile for any season, reason and time. Very lady head high but (velvet) slippers on the mat. Applause to Innocent, I will find you and buy you out of stock.
EDIT: Ok, in warm weather it is too sweet for a non sweet lover
kup88 – :
I bought innocent with lots of hopes.I thought this is going to turn to my most beloved angel.praline,almond,musk,an angel with an innocent character and clean undertone?looks amazing
But nope.it opens with juicy,tart red berries,I’m waiting for it to develop to a sweet,clean scent but all I get is patchouli,let’s be more specific,all I get is angel DNA with much milder sweetness+tart redberries
It was “angel innocent” at first place,then they changed it to just “innocent”. Wrong decision I say.I can say it’s an angel flanker even with close eyes
I had a sample of angel edt long ago.I can’t remember it’s scent cleary but I can remember it had a lot in common with innocent,those days I hated angel edp yet I found it more intresting than edt,I feel the same about innocent but with a little difference,lack of charm isn’t only problem of innocent.it doesn’t even smell good.at least not to my nose
Ofcourse it’s the first time I’m wearing it so it may grow on me.I really hope for it since I don’t find anything nice in it.it’s drydown is the worst part.pathouli plus a hint of clean musk.there’s no trace of angel’s usual sweetness not even redberries tart juicy taste.it’s simply tasteless,soulless musky patchouli.a neutral unisex scent.I bought my 1.7oz bottle for 33$ so it’s not a big deal;yet I wish I had pick up 25mil bottle because even that one would last forever for me
It seems to be a longlasting one.I applied it six hours ago and it’s still easy to smell but it doesn’t have angel’s amazing sillage.this can be a fall scent in my book
Gonna edit it if anything changes,for now it’s something between meh and dislike
❤❤
senchur – :
The only problem with Innocent is the longevity and sillage. Otherwise it’s one of the most interesting perfumes i ve tested.
As i read other’s reviews and checked the notes in Fragrantica I’m starting to think that maybe the scent “turns” on me. Still I really like it. Haven’t yet smelled anything like it.
It does open with mandarin orange and bergamot. It’s sour and quickly black currant and berry take over. Almond, praline and amber DO NOT develop. For the first one hour it’s very fresh, so fresh and clean, not sweet at all. The next three hours that it will last on the skin, it turns peppery, herbal, reminds me of the cannabis in Florabotanica, earthy and bitter. Praline and almond for sure cannot smell like that; maybe amber?I doubt it. Maybe reformulation happened.
Not Innocent at all…
Ducke – :
Ok I’m a newbie to notes, so my review will be simple.
I liked this very much at first spray, but after settling on my arm, it decided to become a strange combination of animal and citrus.
It’s a light fragrance, not terrible…but I’m not digging it on my skin
yurik1313 – :
Very similar to what I remember Angel EdT being, but even fruitier and lighter. Angel with all the base and heart notes shaved off. You can think what you want about Mugler perfumes, but they are unique and instantly recognizable. I admire that.
jokers100 – :
I recieved a sample of Angel Innocent as a gift, and for me it smells like a distant cousin of…Prada Infusion D’iris edt! It’s not similar to original Angel. It’s fruity and ambery in the beginning, but the drydown is very powdery and soapy, soft like a bubble bath. Smells like iris or white musk. Very interesting fresh fragrance. 🙂
TramaDOllka – :
Once again, just like Angel, the urine smell at first spray. It smells very close to Angel to start. After about 5 mins, it becomes a little spicy and I notice the amber. I don’t notice any fruitiness. Later it becomes more sweet and powdery, but not cloying. Its not my type of fragrance, so I wouldn’t wear it, but it isn’t bad.
@Kohla1, your post made me laugh out loud!
dmitry-bondar – :
UGH!! I am seriously starting to get angry with my skin chemistry. All my TM’s are starting to smell like pickles on me. I thought it was just my bottles but nope, tried them at the store, same effect. This makes me smell like a spicy pickle.
vburynov – :
I loved this perfume, it was so different and stood out in a good way. Its so true how fragrance is tied to memory as this one reminds me of when my kids were babies when I got it as a gift. It will always hold a special place for me.
Славик – :
Review below , it’s just really hard to get ,it’s not widely available but it’s not discontinued. Thank god. I love it also. The Hudson Bay actually still carries it. Biggest department store here in Canada. But most locations only have it online. Bigger cities like TO sell it In store still. But I think it doesn’t come with all its creams and pleasures anymore. Only the two sizes of sprayes. Try Hudson Bay online.
And if you are from USA then you can get it at muglerusa online.
ser20 – :
My preferred choice and so disappointed that it was discontinued!!
It was ‘innocent’ and quite soapy which appealed highly to me!!!
Loved it
sunnymansy – :
I yanked the lid off the cheap gift-set package and it released this fantastic smell that immediately made me think of Mean Girls. As a non-American, Innocent is how I imagine clean, pretty, and kind of bratty hair-flipping girls all smell like in the US. A mixture of nice body soap, some anonymous sweetish perfume, and maybe the smell of the scented candles in their rooms.
This is one of those pseudo-gourmands that’s as clean as it is sweet. I would probably place it alongside perfumes like Candy l’eau , Addict edt, Place Vendome–you get the picture. Sure, it’s no Angel, and sure it’s nothing to write home about, but like most Mugler perfumes, it’s got that extra something that others in this category lack; it’s good enough that if you smelled it on the street, it would make you stop for a second. As far as clean and sweet perfumes go, I would say Innocent is in the very top league.
I do get pine in the top notes but it disappears as quickly as that first massive irresistible hit of patchouli in Angel (I certainly wouldn’t mind if they both lasted longer) and beyond that, there’s little evolution. You get some juicy citrus, and then some fruity tartness, some sweetness, some white musk, and if you smell closely, some nuttiness as well. I don’t find it particularly creamy because neither the praline nor the almonds are obvious to me. It’s all anonymously sweet and clean smelling–fresh, dewy, smooth–and while perfectly pleasant, it never becomes boring.
It’s actually kind of depressing to think that this came out in 1998, and designers today are still launching perfumes that have the same basic idea (clean, fruity, sweet) but are nowhere near as good.
sep279Diobtetty – :
I’m always fascinated by Mugler’s creations, even if I am not crazy about the scent. Recently revisited Innocent, just out of curiousity. The sample that I tried was very soapy. It reminded me of angel body wash. Not impressed. Though it did smells clean and angelesque. I think I just lean more towards the dirty patch notes.
Zx12 – :
I owned this about 10 years ago and wore it when I thought Angel would be too much. Back then it was even called Angel Innocent as stated on the label underneath one of the bottles I owned. It is a beautiful light scent, perfect for bright spring days as it doesn’t have the patchouli like Angel. I was so happy to find it on Allbeauty as it hasn’t been available here for years and TM won’t ship to Ireland. I waited anxiously for it’s arrival only to find it no longer has the same longevity or sillage on me as it used to. I still love it though but probably won’t get another as reapplying every hour is a nuisance tbh. For anyone looking for the most beautiful skin scent ever this is a must buy.
Megatreal55 – :
Was looking forward to trying this but unfortunately
i found it a tad synthetic pine smelling.
I only tried it on paper though, possibly could find it nicer on my skin
wevearodieday – :
This is one of my favourites ! It’s sweet, clean fruity and warm .
It’s like the cuddly clean version of angel. More like the EDT but instead of patchouli angel innocent contains more musk.
Innocent is quite a good name for it. I love how it’s clean and sweet and fruity and warm all at the same time. The Musc in the base instead if the patchouli makes this so easier to wear. So different from anything. But very likeable and non offensive at the same time. I only wish it was still more widely available. It use to be at the stores with all its creams and oils and body washes. But now I can only get the 75ml at the Bay online. That’s the only drawback.
Please Mugler bring this back. It is one of your best creations !
alpet1978 – :
I mainly get ‘floral’ and a green, sap-like scent – like maybe fresh cut daisy or dandelion stalks – from this? I’m surprised to read the listed notes above.
Maybe a very light something vanilla-ish underneath.
As a whole, Innocent reminds me slightly of the discontinued Alchimie by Rochas, but that might just be because I’m a relative newcomer to the gourmand ‘genre’, usually steeping in the chypres.
salik917 – :
It’s pure Christmas for me. Pine is not on the list of ingredients, but it definitely smells like. An icy pine forest comes to my mind when I sniff it, along with a little fruityness, a kind of sensation, when there are orange-peel placed on the radiator. I’m definitely going to wear this perfume under The Tree :)) After asking for it as a present 😉
antidot0083 – :
Praline fallen from heaven in the form of perfume, here we have the romantic and delicate sister and virgin of the family Angel, because he has an amazing purity, but do not be fooled by the power of seduction of this young woman, she’s so malicious and mischievous as her sister older! fixing

Garik74 – :
I tested it on paper, on my skin, side by side with Angel and side by side with Eau Sucree. Innocent is feminine, soft, sweet without yelling sweetness, fresh and mature scent. The first minute it smells like Angel but it gets another direction. It turns stronger and believe me, flowers with praline dominating the hole composition (I don’t see flowers in the notes). I thought this was a skin scent but I was wrong. I sat in an office 3 meters away from the door. People who walked at the corridor kept sniffing the air and asking what smelled so wonderful. Some colleages tryed even to follow the trail “to heaven”. Some asked: “I know this… is this Angel?”. I asked some co workers and patients what they thought about it and they love it too. This was my most complimented fragance ever, from young to olderly (age from 20 till 85). Amazing.
igrek_62 – :
Definitely try before you buy!! On my co-worker, this smells heavenly. I purposefully walk past her desk several times a day just to catch a whiff. 😀 On her, this perfume is warm, creamy, musky and a bit sweet. I ran off to my nearest Thierry Mugler stockist to pick up a bottle, but I quickly changed my mind after smelling the top notes on my skin. I get an overwhelming blast of pine needles, as several other people here have experienced. Sadly, I do not enjoy smelling like an evergreen forest. I’ve tried the perfume several times, hoping it was just a fluke, but time and time again I get that blast of pine and it never settles down. Such a shame, because this perfume smells so lovely on my co-worker. 🙁

This is the perfect mix of the Angel and Womanity! 😀
Max318 – :
haven’t ever been tempted by this, but i got a sample of it recently so i gave it a go today.
first thought: my mom would probably like this (early 60s, loves powdery-soft scents like Cherry Blossom from Bath & Body Works).
there’s a woody note (similar to cedar or pencil shavings) that is reminding me of the Angel EDT (which i can’t stand).
it’s so soft and nonoffensive. kinda like a nice soap.
so i’ll pass on this one. i’ll eventually finish the sample, but that’s it.
serega borchik – :
At first I thought that this was going to be a scrubber but I decided to wait and see. Now I really like it. Glad I gave it a chance before scrubbing it off.
василий – :
This is so interesting! If you smelled this and Angel side by side, you would have no idea that these were in the same house. Innocent is quite fruity and sweet, and has a very bright base on my skin that almost smells of pine trees. It’s very clean and refreshing, quite transparent. Sillage seems quite moderate compared to other TM creations. But that’s okay with me, I would rather have a scent that sits closer to the skin. I think I may have to invest in a larger size package, since I have a small sample.size right now.
Keep shining, you beautiful people!
anatol94 – :
If ice had a scent this would be it. I have the pointy shaped purse spray, the scent matches it so well it’s like an icicle. I’m getting some soapy evergreen note it’s almost minty. The original Angel is the cozy sweater and this is the icy winter. I feel like I just ate a mint or brushed my teeth when I smell this it’s so fresh. It’s very strong though, I have one spritz on my wrist and its almost too much. I love it yet want to wash it off at the same time. I’m on the fence on this one.
al1500 – :
I just got this, but I’m not sure about it. It’s sweet, yes, but there is some note in it that I’m not in love with. I bought this as a half full bottle for only $5.00, so I’m definitely not out much. The bottle itself is super pretty though. I love the star on the cap, and the blue color of the perfume.
I love gourmand, and sweet scents, especially if they have almond, so I’d love to discover the note I find troublesome in this. I think as the day goes on, I tend to like it better. It almost has a medicinal smell at first spray, and I think that is what I’m finding off putting……
If you are paying full price, definitely try before you buy, because I thought I’d love this, and somehow, it’s more of a miss for me.
ket – :
Just got Innocent edp in mail…I got a sample of Angel years ago and loved it so I bought a bottle…I’ve gone back and forth between love and like w/that fragrance and am giving this a try…at first I smelled citrus then berries then praline, I think…the notes blend nicely, like a good perfume should. Somewhere in the middle I get a sense of Angel but then it ends in something nice and clean and soft…it has a sweetness about it but not sickly and it doesn’t have that “armpit” smell that I detect sometimes in Angel…I have no idea how they got that note…
I really like this fragrance and am going to enjoy…got a compliment already…ok it was from my husband but it still counts.
kiiskka – :
This is the only Mugler I can wear so far! It has nothing in common with Angel and it’s very wearable and chic.
johny_valentine – :
This is really nice! Its a user friendly Thierry Mugler…lol. There is nothing reminiscent of Angel in this. At least not as far as my nose can tell. And I can sniff out Angel a mile away. This is much softer. Very musky and sweet on my skin. I get berries in the initial spritz. Very light and sweet but not candy sweet. Once that settles I get a wonderful musky sweet praline smell that I am loving. And not a smidgen of patchouli to be found!! 🙂 Projection is minimal…is just a bit more than a skin scent on me. This is a pretty safe scent, especially for TM…..
ira14 – :
Is this like Angel without the annoying killer patch accord?
Prizra4naya76 – :
On me, this smells like Angel but wearable. There is a body cream of Angel, and I love the smell of that better than the perfume – that is what this smells like. Light, airy, fruity, clean, with the familiar Angel in the background. Unfortunately, I have the same allergic reaction to Innocent that I do to Angel. Unfortunate, because it is really nice.
frecypype – :
As much as I want to love Innocent Thierry Mugler I am afraid that it is not gonna happen. I find it heavy, overpowering, and on top of that uncomfortably sweet. Can’t imagine fragrances containing chocolate or nuts ever work for me. Maybe, one day.
Anaerakneed – :
I’m a big fan of Innocent ever since it was introduced. I know all the official notes, but Innocent smells like Halloween candy to me overall. I like it any time of year, but especially in October and November. It seems to get men’s attention quite a bit.
andrex – :
Innocent is young and innocent…. with a sweet & clean note to it. I also get a green note as well. Acually a very fresh candy citrus chocolaty scent that’s very easy to wear 🙂
First note when it’s applied is citrus followed by praline, cherry and black currant. When it settles down it’s more musky with a hint of almond, praline and bergamot.
It do have some similarity to Angel EdT but it doesn’t smell like it. I loooooove Angel EdT and like Innocent.
Anyway…. a beautiful fragrance 🙂 cleaner more citrusy, less sharp and minus patchouli kind of Angel.
Innocent är en ung och oskyldig doft…. söt och ren på en och samma gång. Jag uppfattar även en grönaktig lite höig nyans till en början vilket avtar efter en stund. Faktisk en mycket fräsch godis/citrus/chokladig doft som är väldigt lätt att bära 🙂
Först när det tillämpats uppfattar jag citrus följt av pralin, körsbär och svarta vinbär. Efter en stund uppstår en mer myskig doft med inslag av mandel, pralin och bergamott.
Doften har en viss likhet med Angel EdT men det luktar inte som Angel EdT. Jag ääääälskar verkligen Angel och gillar Innocent 🙂
Hur som helst. Detta är en fantastisk doft …. renare och mer citrusaktig än Angel men också mindre skarp och utan patchouli.
Sparcle7 – :
yummy citrus dewy but sweet and warm fragrance. i will be heartbroken if this ever goes off the thierry mugler website, this is without a doubt my favourite thierry mugler fragrance, as i feel as though his other fragrances are too outrageous for me so this one fits me perfectly
icemanexe – :
Sweet and bright notes on spraying. It settles into a fruity, powdery smell with an almond zing at the end. Light and bright and sweet (think the blackcurrants are making it strongly sweet). I think I like this one better than the heavy figgy womanity, but then different moods call for different scents.
escOsmeno – :
Innocent is gorgeous. I too have Angel which I love but this is lighter. I wear this almost everyday. Angel is something I save for special occasions. I think this has a bit more floral to it although I do not see it in the notes. I find it more romantic and approachable than Angel. I get tons of compliments too.
Alexeevbob – :
If there’s anyone in Canada that loves this fragrance, the bay in Toronto at the eaton center has it again! I missed my baby 🙂
agn – :
I took my baby son for a walk with 2 sprays of Innocent in my hair. It was cold, bright autumn morning. You know that smell of wind and yellow leaves on sidewalk… and above it all touch of Innocent. Gentle, comforting, yet strong. Perfect for a love date but also perfect for tired mother who wants to feel pretty.
Zakharovaalbina – :
This is the signature scent of one of my best friends. The strange thing is that whenever she is wearing this and I am wearing Angel, everyone thinks that we are wearing the same perfume. To my nose it is also smelling like a lighter Angel version. So either the perfume indeed smells like a lighter Angel version, either it is projecting more on her or Angel projects less on me. But, the similarities are too obvious in my opinion. In any case, she was getting a lot of compliments about it. And if you like Angel you will also like that and if you think that Angel is too loud, give this a try!
volk – :
The more I wear Innocent, the more I like it. It is unique because it is a fresh and soapy feeling gourmand, I wouldn’t expect anything less than the unexpected from TM!
NethemeTref – :
I love this scent. It’s creamy and buttery and soft, but not soft in terms of scent strenghth. I mean soft in texture like warm melted caramel. It makes me feel comfortable like a soft sweater on a chilly day. I can tell that it is related to Angel but it’s much easier to wear.
tyurxgmSAZl – :
This is a soft, soapy praline scent with an almost mint like coolness that is refreshing for warmer weather. Longevity & sillage are moderate.
Kapralove – :
As everyone’s said before – this is a truly lighter version of Angel. But I don’t consider this oriental vanilla – more a fruity vanilla if such thing exists! 🙂
guy_rufin – :
I don’t know what it is about Thierry Mugler’s Innocent, but I always come back buying it. It is uplifting and sparkly but still deliciously sweet – it is so lively to me! Even when it dries down after a few hours it still smells lively on me.
Innocent’s sweetness is “expensive” smelling, not that sugary-girly kind of sweetness. It has a lot of depth to it. Together with the sparkly, fresh berries and juicy oranges it creates such an unique fragrance which is truly addictive.
The quality is (just like all Thierry Mugler perfumes) excellent, I spray it once on my neck and I am done.
radu.smolnitchi – :
I bought the refill bottle ages ago. This was the sweetest perfume I’ve ever dared to own.
I remember having a hard time wearing it, being so wary of sweet scents, but I really loved it. It was gourmand in a very good, well-concocted and balanced way.
You can feel the sweet red fruit and a great deal of yummy pralines, and yes, there’s some amber and musk heaviness in it.
I never felt really in my skin with this one, but I feel that I should give it another shot (it’s been more than 15 years, after all…).
Maybe I’ve grown into it 🙂
Anyway, this has very long longevity and excellent sillage.
ghjrjg – :
The original Angel fragrance is like the strong warrior angel Michael in the Apocolypse. This “Innocent” fragrance is more like a soft, innocent baby Cherub angel lol. That analogy pretty much summarizes it.
Both are Angels, just different kinds.
aski – :
I love this scent. It’s like Angel’s little sister. She’s sweet and, well, innocent (not according to the ad though. Look up the commercial on YouTube!). Its not a watered down Angel though She has her own personality. Lots of paraline and red berries ….and no patchouli (a refreshing change). I’ve received some complements….except for today. Someone said I smell like playdough?
LiarceRisefes – :
They say that this magnificent perfume was made in 1998?? Really because is one the most modern and unique perfumes I have ever smelled. The summers will be more optimistic with this smell which keeps growing and growing during the hot days. It is so unusual and one of my favorite ones of “TM”. It is long lasting yet very promising, you can not imagine the feeling when you put it on. On clothes must stay for days. I love it. I don’t know why I waited so long to try this gem!!!

Jenika’s review below is beautiful and describes my thoughts almost exactly at the opening 15 mins of this perfume.
Lovely. Not at ALL what I expected due to ‘praline’ being the first note! In other words this is NOT the same brand of ‘praline’ note found in La Vie Est Belle etc. This is just a sprinkling of nutty sweet goodness over the top of a bowl of sun ripened black currant and red berries.
Yummy, juicy, sweet. Great (non mainstream) smelling berry scent, since black currant is not the most common berry to be the most obvious note in a(non-niche) fragrance!
I really really like it so far. Blind swap win! =D
EDIT: about an hour in I get a LOT more of the white musk from the base. Interested to ask friends what the initial note they get from a distance is. Will update.
…and in the end it became much too much on the musky side of things for me. Somehow the bergamot surfaced more than ever later and the white musk got screechier vs smoother on me as time went by. If only that opening could stay! I’m not a fan past that point.

The musk in this is intensive on my skin, leading me to wonder if perhaps its title is somewhat tongue in cheek. I smell the candied enthusiasm of youth, but also the budding knowledge of discovery. This is not virginal innocence, but the knowing innocence that a young woman acquires in the years before her naivete disappears. It’s nostalgic, sensual, cuddly, lighthearted, and romantic. I like it.
