"M" for Men

by Marilyn Miglin

What's it like?...: The alcohol is very prominent in the beginning- for a little longer than usual. This is primarily because they designed the fragrance as an all in one "after shave-cologne." It tends to stay quite potent, even on the dry-down. The notes are a mix of powdery/soap with a light spice base.
When to wear it...: Summertime
How it lasted on me...: ALL DAY.
The bottle...: It's a rectangular black bottle with rounded corners. The back is curved, to fit comfortably in the palm of your hand.
Miscellaneous details...: Yes, I know- Banana Republic is "M" too, but Marilyn Miglin holds the trademark for it. The "M" stands for Meta, which means "beyond"- "for the forward thinking man." For more info, check out their web site...
In my opinion...: I personally don't like it, but the quality of real oils put into this one will serve the oriental spice/soap lover really well. If you like Lagerfeld, by Karl Lagerfeld, Colours, by Alexander Julian, or Scott McClintock, by Jessica McClintock- you'll like this one- A LOT!
