Our verdict on M7: Acquired

M7 is pure legend, a pioneering oud that's either worshipped as a masterpiece or dismissed as a syrupy, 'old man' fragrance. It's divisive yet undeniably influential.

About

M7 opens with a surprising cherry-like sweetness reminiscent of cough syrup, underpinned by bright mandarin and herbal rosemary. This quickly gives way to a dark, resinous oud at its core, expertly blended with rich amber and musk for a warm, almost powdery dry-down. It's a journey from fruity medicinal top notes to a deep, sensual woody base.
