About the Product
M7 by Yves Saint Laurent represents a groundbreaking moment in the realm of luxury fragrances. Released in 2002, this signature scent marks the first in collaboration with renowned designer Tom Ford during his tenure at YSL. Recognized for its pioneering approach, M7 Cologne was one of the earliest fragrances to embrace the boldness of oud—a warm, complex, and richly resinous note. It embodies the iconic fusion of East and West, elegantly merging modern sensibilities with timeless traditions. M7 has stood the test of time as a fragrant embodiment of audacity and charisma, creating an unmistakable imprint in the world of men's perfumes.
Fragrance Family:
Woody Oriental
Scent Type:
Rich, Bold, Spicy
Notes:
The M7 Cologne unravels with a vibrant crescendo of top notes featuring mandarin, bergamot, and a subtle whisper of rosemary—a refreshing yet intriguing prelude. As the fragrance blossoms, the heart reveals an opulent synergy of oud wood and vetiver. The oud here is both raw and refined, offering a smoky, seductive quality perfectly balanced with the earthy green of vetiver. The base features a luxurious blend of musk, amber, and myrrh, providing a deep, warm trail that lingers with a profound sense of mystery and allure. This sophisticated composition highlights the transformative power of each element, capturing an intoxicating essence that captivates the senses.
Suggested Use
For optimal effect and enduring wear of M7 Cologne, apply the fragrance strategically to pulse points—such as the wrists, neck, and behind the ears. The warmth emanating from these areas intensifies the fragrance, ensuring a fuller development throughout the day. For an enhanced experience, consider applying it on warmer skin, just after showering, allowing the enchanting notes to amplify and resonate deeply, revealing the full spectrum of its complexity.
FAQ for M7
What does M7 by Yves Saint Laurent smell like?
M7 by Yves Saint Laurent is renowned for its rich, warm, and woody fragrance profile. It has an original oud wood base and is complemented by sweet mandarin, earthy vetiver, and cuddly amber. This scent is all earthy, but it is classy and has a mystical and exotic fragrance that is both daring and seductive, thus making it really memorable.
Is M7 by Yves Saint Laurent discontinued?
Yes, the original M7 by Yves Saint Laurent was discontinued shortly after its release in 2002. However, because of its high popularity and cult status, Yves Saint Laurent went on to re-launch it as M7 Oud Absolu in 2011, preserving the authenticity of the original while changing the formulation a bit.
Which YSL men's cologne is the best?
Yves Saint Laurent offers several acclaimed men's colognes, each catering to different tastes and preferences. The top of the range YSL L'Homme, a light and fresh fragrance, and the classic Y Collection La Nuit de L'Homme known for its spicy and sensual notes. With its abundant storage of amber and the word \"Fougere\" being part of the composition, the M7 scent is iconic in the line and deeply appreciated by fans.
What is the history of Yves Saint Laurent M7?
M7 by Yves Saint Laurent made its debut in 2002 as a pioneering fragrance due to its innovative use of oud wood, a note that was relatively rare in Western perfumery at the time. Yves Saint Laurent's flight into the modern era with Tom Ford as the art director of the brand and the launch of the first men's fragrance in the portfolio. Its individual character built a loyal fan base, even though it faced certain issues in its early sales, and it is still known and appreciated for the revolutionary style it had.
What kind of scent is M7?
M7 is best categorized as a woody amber fragrance. It features the powerful resinous scent of the oud that is complemented with amber and musk. The total combination is thus very strong and manly. The liveliness introduced by the citrus notes of mandarin provides a subtle touch of elegance to the overall mixture, which in turn makes it the perfect scent for the self-assured who wish to wear such an audacious and profound aroma.
What season is M7 best for?
Due to its rich and warm fragrance notes, M7 is ideally suited for autumn and winter. The strong odor of the wood and the fragrance of the amber created a smooth and cozy air that was in quite a good harmony with the cool season. This increased a person's self-identity in the winter months.
Is M7 suitable for all occasions?
M7 is a versatile fragrance that can be worn on various occasions. The presence of its strong and specific smell makes it captivating for nights, celebrations, or any time one desires to get attention. M7 can also be worn in a casual way, but the real, best impression that it makes is in the surroundings where this perfume is deliberately chosen to be worn, for example: formal dinners or night hangouts.
How long does M7 last?
M7, known for its strong sillage and longevity, typically lasts well beyond 8 hours on the skin, depending on application and environmental factors. It is more advantageous to be put in pulse points such as the wrists, neck, and back of the ears to maximize its durability since the body heat in these areas acts as a help in expanding the projection of the perfume.

Hello,I think this is a very romantic fragrance that is great for that special occasion when you are out on a date or a romantic evening with the wife. I really can't describe it exactly,but I get a lot of compliment's. The ladies love it. I would suggest trying it out on your skin if you can get a sample of it. All that I can say to you is every person has a different body chemistry and no two people will smell the same with a cologne or perfume so try it out on your skin and I guarantee you will love it. I give this cologne 5 star's all the way!! M7 by Yves Saint Laurant is amazing!!!

"Excellent scent, using it since debut"
I was introduced to M7 in San Francisco while in town to see a Rolling Stones concert. I have been using it ever since. there was a lull until I found it available through your company after all the department stores stopped carrying it. There was even a point it was not available through you whom I much prefer to do business with rather than other online outlets because you always have quality product. Thanks!!
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Don't Be Afraid
After all I heard about M7 being such an overwhelming powerhouse I was somewhat let down ( I like strong fragrances). It opens strong and uniquely with a medicinal cherry smell that eventually morphs into a very nice incense, spice and wood. On my skin the sillage was mediocre and the longevity average. Overall I like the scent. Maybe I'll just apply it a little heavier.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
