No label is as much hit or miss as Michel Germain.
MG is the house label of Macy's/Bloomingdales, which also represents the primary distribution channel. At Macy's, as a high-priced brand, one expects corresponding quality, especially since the MG perfumes change hands for hefty amounts.
Deauville is a hit. It reminds one of Versace Baby Blue Jeans, but is less citrusy and more aimed at the 40+ target group. Unobtrusive, actually quite subtle with a rather poor longevity of 4-5 hours. There is no significant scent development, yet it is absolutely convincing as it smells expensive and elegant, and due to its limited sillage, it is also great for the office. Yes, it all sounds unexciting, but it has been in near-weekly use for several years now. A great all-rounder.
