Thierry Mugler Miroir des Vanités can be capricious, it can either reflect a dark side or a nice side. If it will reflect the nice side, you will smell a sweet lemon note that will envelop you with playfulness. But if the dark side is reflected you will sense a heavy, stingy vetiver with a bittery note that must be quinquina bark. Miroir des Vanités’s darker side is a lot more interesting and appealing. I am not calling this perfume capricious for nothing, as it has been showing me its darker side for some time, till’ it has decided to show me its nice side and I was confused. While its dark side has a depth that I really enjoy and it is slightly heavy and stingy, I feel the nice side is rather sunny and superficial at first and shows less depth. Because of its capriciousness, one might need to give Mirror of Vanities a little time and wear it multiple times on various occasions so it can unravel its capricious but interesting personality. I really like the bottle and it would look really pretty on a vanity.
While I do not completely understand the meaning behind the name Miroir des Vanites / Mirror of Vanities, I will personally interpret it much in the same way I feel about the perfume. It might not show its depth at first, it will reflect a pretty image like a mirror that hides the interesting traits behind the projected image. These interesting traits are darker, deeper and define a different perspective.
In the end, I would like to add a small advice to my Dear Reader. Perfume is like a work of art, it strikes different chords within each individual. The interpretation of a work of art is very personal, profound and unique for each and every human being. If possible, test a perfume for yourself after reading a review. Also, do not forget to Love, Enjoy and Wear your Perfume of choice Proudly.
