Comments on: Perfume Review: M7 by Yves Saint Laurent http://www.aromascope.com/wp/2006/07/05/m7-by-yves-saint-laurent/ A perfume blog about all things perfume - reviews, shopping, recommendations. Sun, 23 Nov 2008 12:50:20 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.1 By: Aromascope » Black Orchid by Tom Ford http://www.aromascope.com/wp/2006/07/05/m7-by-yves-saint-laurent/#comment-3231 Aromascope » Black Orchid by Tom Ford Wed, 29 Nov 2006 04:42:56 +0000 http://www.aromascope.com/wp/2006/07/05/m7-by-yves-saint-laurent/#comment-3231 [...] Tom Ford Black Orchid was one of my major anticipations this year: its promise to bring retro glamour back to perfume as well as the rendition of a one-of-a-kind flower of black orchid captivated me to the point of infatuation. It was evident from the start the scent would be somewhat controversial (consider other perfumes created under Tom Ford’s direction - M7, Gucci, Youth Dew Amber Nude). I can take controversial any time (unless it’s pretentious) - there’re way too many smell-and-forgets (SAFs) out there. When it comes to perfume, I like to be challenged, provoked, haunted. Black Orchid did jus that, and it is after numerous skin tests that I’m writing this review.

I have not tried M7 in ages. Must rectify this asap. I was also distracted by the ad to notice the bit about the 7th fragrance, so naturally I began to wonder about that… I have not tried M7 in ages.

I mean, male sensuality and all, but, really, it's not. I think you'll love it. LOL at the Drawz! Patty, I swear it’s not that masculine. I mean, male sensuality and all, but, really, it’s not.

I know my husband *almost* bought some M7, or he might have gone through one bottle or part of one. I need to go rummage through his drawz (since y'all permamently are gutter-brains and made fun of gramma's drawz too, I'll just leave that like that). BTW, the Drawz is from an Episode of that Janice Dickinson modeling agency show, which is such a train wreck, I can't look away. It sounds great, and I do remember sniffing it and liking it very much, but back then I was thinking I couldn't wear guy scents either. What a stud.

And as far as I'm concerned, that man could be wearing Axe and I'd be all over him. Can't remember his name, believe he is a famous soccer player. M7 sounds interesting but less edgy than I'd predicted. On the other hand, I've been appreciating some YSL fragrances recently, so I guess I should get busy and smell it!

LOL!! Sigh. Must go retrieve my mind from the gutter. I was clearly too distracted by the ad to note that bit about the seventh fragrance for men. LOL!! Sigh.
