Two new men are becoming faces of fragrances: Fendi wil... Go
Mandarin Orange, Mineral Notes
Rockrose, Myrrh, Amber Notes
M7, a spicy, ambry wood scent created in 2002, is entering ‘La Collection’, a line of scents for connoisseurs, signed Yves Saint Laurent. By rechristening it M7 OUD ABSOLU, the house is reasserting the fragrance’s role as a forerunner in the oud-wood trend. Revisited in 2011, the fragrance, ‘has been enriched with a stunning, mineral freshness that allows oud wood to reveal all of its depth and richness.’ A fragrance for Don Juans and men who love full-bodied scents, but that could appeal to women, too.
Composed around precious oud wood, the slightly reworked formula opens with mandarin orange and mineral notes. The heart blends agarwood (a.k.a. oud) with a patchouli tonality. The more oriental close combines rockrose and myrrh with touches of amber. Perfumers: Jacques Cavallier and Alberto Morillas, Firmenich.
