Those are used in different context entirely.
doux : nice to stroke (like a cat, a sweatshirt, etc). OR mild taste. OR sweet
mouelleux (or "mou") : soft texture, as in if you press it, it will dent it (like a cake, a couch)

doux = sweet,soft,pleasant,mild, gentle
moelleux = sweet, soft, spongy, creamy, mellow, smooth, fluffy
They are both similar.

As your picture suggest, you may refer to wine.
About legislation :
A moelleux wine is a wine that has a certain content of sugar after a full fermentation. This is between "demi-sec" and "liquoreux" according to the European regulation.
A "vin doux naturel" is a wine for which the fermentation process has been stoped by an addition of alcohol.
About tasting :
You can say that a wine is moelleux when you get a feeling of smooth and velvet in your mouth. This sensation is perceptible on the tip of your tongue. You call "doux" a wine that is sweet.

"Moelleux" is more used to talk about things as pastry or something to eat and "doux" is used to describe a texture, something which is soft as silk or other things as animals..
