As the name suggests, Bonbon smells like… well, a bonbon. A caramelised peach bonbon to be exact. It smells of melted caramel mixed in a pot with ripe peaches and sweet mandarin oranges. A sandalwood and amber base adds extra sweetness and a creamy nuance to the candied fragrance. Perfect for casual days of frivolous, girly fun!

Realistic and intensely sweet, this is for those who want an unconventional sweetness.

Mugler mixes the creamy sweetness of hazelnut cream with the woody and masculine note of vetiver for a rich and intoxicating scent. Fans of Nutella spread will have their mouths watering when they spritz this one. It’s a head-turner that will have you smelling deliciously distinct in the crowd.
