About this deal

Certainly there is no classic or real oud in this M7. Most people associate with this note things like cowsh!!!!, some medical chords or other foul smelling things (by the way, so do I myself).

Here at Fragrance Direct we have an outstanding selection of fragrances and toiletries on offer, and our customers are big fans of this Yves Saint Laurent M7 eau de toilette natural spray for men for its raw and sensual aroma that is ideal for the desirable and dangerous man. In the base, I find it to be balsamic-sweet and spicy-warm, which should be due to the myrrh and amber. The freshness from the opening is retained throughout the fragrance, although not as strong as at the beginning Oud Absolu still kept the original scent DNA. You can still smell the scent of M7 in all of it's versions, just lighter nowadays. The 3rd is closer to the 2nd than the 1st version.

The 2nd iteration was slightly lighter, hence more wearable. As if it was an EDT & the 1st was an EDP. Its box is also different; it now lists 14 ingredients instead of 4. Despite the increase in ingredients, however, the reformulated version is substantially weaker than the original, emphasizes amber over faint oud, and lasts even less time (both on my skin and on others). That said, both versions have the same dry down. People in the community tend to over hyper discontinued fragrances. Nostalgia? Dislike of change? Collector's obsession?

It's a good scent but it was over hyped then, & still is to an extent, even though it is a beautiful fragrance. M7 cuts a good figure in the office, as the scent is easy to notice, but does not spread immense scent clouds and is so pleasantly worked that colleagues do not feel bothered. The current version appears fuller and a little richer in features. Towards the base, however, they are then very similar. For the rehearsal I would like to thank Terra! The original M7 seems a little lighter, fresher and brighter to me. The citrus fruits seem a bit more sparkling and the scent is a bit less medicinal.

With the Santal Royal by Guerlain and Intense Oud by Gucci I owned two other oud-heavy treasures besides the M7 for a long time, but in the end I passed them on, because the Santal Royal was simply too leathery and the Intense Oud was too sour because of the saffron (I also wanted to reduce my collection, which fortunately went well for me recently).

Nah, I thought at first, this is supposed to be the fabric of the fabrics now, which is supposed to give modern fragrances a certain something, a woody note, even an animal touch? *sniff* i like to wear even though i’m a girl. smells very dark, erotic, strong,wild …… it makes me think: “Take me!” Especially in the current season the M7 is the best and most suitable for me. Because of the fruity-citric start and the oriental swing it brings with it afterwards, mMn can be classified as a great all-rounder, which you can wear very well on these autumn days. And also on cooler days in spring I can imagine him very well. We all have certain preferences for certain notes, just as we naturally have a kind of aversion to other notes. Spontaneously, leather, aniseed and oud come to mind, with which I personally am not very good at, for example,

6. MIU MIU — HAILEE STEINFELD

Base: Amber [probably something like Tolu Balsam], musk, mandrake root, labdanum, incense/frankincense, and something vanilla. I have to say a big word of praise. The main components of the perfume are listed on the bottle. Here called chords: The salt is used as a transition, trying to unite the sweetness of the fruit and the oud. This idea is brilliant and one of the reasons why the top note mixes so much with the heart note and remains present for so long. I can imagine salt here as a natural flavour enhancer, just as it really is in the kitchen. I guess Ciste means Labdanum. Creating such transparency here and explaining the perfume process to the buyer gives me great advantages. On the front is big:

I can't deny it, there is a certain melancholy in M7 Oud Absolu. It is not a fragrance that is sad, oh no. But due to the interplay of dry citrus fruits with the serious resins and spices, the cheerfulness is a bit cloudy and cloudy.

My Account

This is Hardcore Sex in a bottle!!! Its Sweaty, Its Dirty, Its Intoxicating…. Its so damn nasty…..I wouldn’t be surprised to know that this one has pheromones on it. I would bet my life that those notes aren’t even the half of it. I would bet you anything! I smell far, far more in M7, starting with walloping doses of labdanum, going through to spices like cardamom, florals and some sort of incense, before ending with vanilla. If there is no labdanum and incense in M7, I will eat my hat. (I will eat my hat, I tell you!) The amount of stuff I detect is so far in excess of those measly, abbreviated, 8 official notes that my personal list of what I smell would look something like this: I persöhnlich am very satisfied with the fragrance, he stands out but something from the crowd without being extravagant.
