An alluring capital m

[short review]
Sometimes I buy perfumes just because I am curious about them, after reading a review, or hearing a well stated opinion.
When that happens and the perfume is inexpensive (like "m"), I just buy the flask. Porsuing a sample or a decant may be tiresome and sometimes the final expense is bigger that the cost of "the real thing".
Many times, when a blind buy of an inexpensive perfume happens, I just end up with another unused scent in my closet.
"m" is really inexpensive, hard or impossible to find in my country and has been extensively recommended by a Youtube reviewer that I don't really care or trust. So... I just blind ordered it a couple of years ago!
"m" turned out to be a gem and I still really like it a lot.

It has a strong vibe of Allure Homme, although I don't consider it a clone, with an all-around type of spiciness and sweetness that makes it particularly eclectic and versatile, besides having a scent that I particulary like. On top of it, the flask is really handy to carry in one's pocket.
It could be another very aromatic gourmand with cinnamon, vanilla, tonka and star anise, but the seasoning with fir and cashmere wood proved to be very effective.
All the people around me like it and it turned out to be an unexpected compliment getter. The performance isn't great, but not too bad either.

Happy whiffs!

MMMMMMMMMMM

M A letter that has it well.

The letter M is often mistakenly referred to as an "inverted W", but the letter W is correctly an inverted M. The M occurs in several melodic words that only underline its uniqueness, such as....

-Flour lye
-Menopause tea
-Micropipette

etc.
The other day on Sesame Street...

"Hey, you!"
-Who, me?
"Psssst! - (lower)"!
-Who, me?"
"Exactly......Would you like to buy an M?"
- A M?
"Psssst! Quieter"!
-a m?
"Genaaaaaah...one that smells a lot like Chanel Allure"
-Like ALLURE?
"Psssst! Quieter"!
-like Allure?
"Genaaaaaah..... this one's an M. It starts with a fresh aniseed scent paired with a little sage."
-SALBEI?
"Psssst! Quieter"!
-sage? That sounds delicious!
"It is! A little later cinnamon will be added, that will be really sweet."
-Oh, I like sweet smells, that sounds like a very sweet M. What can I do with an M like this? "You can spray it on and smell it!"
-RIECHEN?
"Psssst! Quieter"!
-you can smell that?
"Genaaaaau.......and later it becomes vanilla and nice woody, here you notice the resemblance to the Allure"
-But what if I already have Allure? Do I still need a M?
"You always need an M. I'll let you have it for an unbeatable price."
-But my Allure lasts long. Can this M also?
"8h are here nothing"
-That sounds really nice your M. Maybe I should buy it.
"You should buy it, and Bert should get one right away. I'm telling you, he'll be thrilled. That's better than the Allure."

Yes also James Bond smells like M says Q and made the calculation without V- the aliens. But Agent K and Agent J were on the spot and everything was O K

Now a plate of alphabet soup.

So yummy.

It's been a while since I had Allure Homme. And I have to admit, back then it didn't really knock me out of my shoes.
But this "M" here is the absolute hammer. The relationship to Allure can definitely not be denied. But it smells even better to me. Softer, more pleasant, tastier etc.....
Not to mention the ridiculous price you pay for it. Total class.
And I was very reluctant at first whether I should treat myself to this blind purchase. Thank God I did. It remains in the collection and will be bought again if necessary.

one of the few bad recommendations from Jeremy

Normally I agree with almost all of Jeremy's recommendations I have discovered through him this passion and found many great scents. But I don't understand that recommendation. Smells for me if I had to describe it like rotten, synthetic crème brûlée. I love winter scents, but this one doesn't work. I had to do the dishes.

Yes, smells like...............but better in it's own way

Yes, very much like Allure Homme by the great house of Chanel.

Though I do prefer this much more so, why?
First off.....pricepoint, so much cheaper!

Second-darker, in my opinion, Allure has white flower notes like Jasmine, Gardenia and such along with peach making it not only softer but powdery.

Third: This is more masculine, Allure's white flower, peach and coconut notes give it a feminine leaning.

Fourth; long lasting and great projection.
As I write this it is the middle of winter here in the northern hemisphere and such a great time of year for Perry Ellis' M.

Sweet and dry - Good choice for fall and winter

I do not get much cinnamon from this, but something akin to a fresh tobacco accord. Of course, cinnamon is listed as a note and tobacco is not; so, take my words with a grain of salt.
As far as I can tell, people who like CK One Shock for Men might find this a good choice for fall and winter. It might be a little too sweet and dry for summer. I do not suggest that CK Shock and PE m smell alike, (or even close), but at least for me, they fill similar spots in the rotation. PE m is sweeter, and less tobacco-ey than Shock, and Shock seems to project and last somewhat better than PE m. At any rate, a pretty good choice at current prices (as of December 2015) for people who do not have anything against any of the listed notes.
