Similar, but not a dupe of M7. However, if you like M7, you should give this one a chance. An interesting scent, very unique. The oud is very beginner-friendly, similar to the oud in "Bade'e Al Oud - Oud for Glory | Lattafa / لطافة"
Oud and orange are the main protagonists here. The vanilla and amber give the fragrance a slight sweetness, but it is not very noticeable, as the oud and orange are simply too prominent. I can't say what causes the smokiness, but I do perceive something smoky, although it is very restrained, thankfully. The cypress and vetiver give the fragrance a slight green touch. The scent has everything: sweet, smoky, green, oudy, and fruity from the orange.
Sillage and longevity? I find the longevity stronger than the sillage. In the first hour, I can perceive it, though not very strongly, but I can notice it. In the second hour, I can't perceive it at all anymore, but I don't know if it's because a note in the fragrance makes me nose-blind or if it simply doesn't have the power. However, the longevity seems to be okay; I can still faintly smell it on my clothes the next day.
Who can wear it? I would say it's more suited for men; I can't imagine it on a woman.
Would I recommend it? People who like extraordinary fragrances that set them apart from the crowd and can handle oud, I can only recommend this scent to them. If you don't find this oriental, complex scent appealing, you should rather look for another fragrance or test this one somehow before regretting the purchase. For me personally, it's an interesting scent that I wouldn't necessarily buy again, as there are definitely better options.
