Sounds like a decent offering Marc , I haven’t got LIDGE,in any form and refuse to pay the crazy vintage prices,nor a bottle of the newest formulation in Ideal shaped bottles,so this may scratch the itch and then some?? Cheers appreciate the great review.have a great day ✌️🙏👍
That's artistically magical! Who would have thought Chocolate, Guaic wood and Vetiver would smell 'GREEN'!?... That's interesting Marc. Thanks for the video.
Lutens is a house I still haven't dove into yet. Always looking for new additions to add to my Lutens sample list. So far, not looking like this one will make it. lol
Marc your the best I've been waiting for somebody to review this I bought six years ago . It smells like dark 🍫 chocolate it sits next to my Chopard Casran , L'Instant de Guerlain , Opium YSL .
@@robes08 - It was very helpful and also underscores the fact that you are honest about what you get from a fragrance (good, bad, ugly, or unsure). It was a very relatable moment because sometimes I have a hard time making sense of what I experience.
For some reason I really have to look for the vetiver in this one. I get all the other notes. One of the quietest Serge. Very restrained and transparent.
Hey man. I’m 6 months late to this video,did you give it another chance for this fragrance. I’d like to know what you think about it after a couple of fullwear. I found this on the store in my country and tried this a couple of times already and im liking them both,but both times they smelled quite different somehow. Thinking of getting a bottle of this one
Was always just a meh for me. Same with Vetiver Fatale from AC, although I liked that one a bit more. No question that Oriental is well composed, but very much on the flat side. The more I wore it, the more boring it got. Just like you, I guess I expected something different?
I've wanted this for a long time and finally got it about a year ago. I just straight up don't like it. Easily my least favorite serge. Such a weird mishmash of notes that don't work for me. Still happy to have it.
I have smell this and to me smells like cacao leafs or the green cacao fruits witch do not smell sweet but green.this is unique to my nose. I could see why they chopped this. Not bad at all but definitely not creed aventus 😂
Iris Silver Mist from Serge Lutens is my favorite Serge Lutens
Great unboxing first impressions video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed day
Thanks so much!
You welcome keep up the good work GOD BLESS 🙏
Remember liking this one, not quite love, preferred the powdery chocolate style in Borneo more
Borneo has much more oomph than this one!

Many to discover, honestly the most consistent brand out there.

Great review. I like that you gave us what you experienced even if it was hard to describe on first sniff.
Once the camera is rollin' I tell you what I get, hopefully it's helpful but not all the time, sometimes I need more time with it.

Uncle Marc,
Uncle Serge and his composition have you lost for words, lol
Truth!
For some reason I really have to look for the vetiver in this one. I get all the other notes. One of the quietest Serge. Very restrained and transparent.
This one sounds very interesting!
Marc is there an earthy rooty perhaps spicy vetiver that you'd recommend? I think I'm going with Incident Diplomatique.
I have this one. I wear this in spring when I don't want to wear my Grey Vetiver EDT
Grey Vetiver is also such a solid scent.

I'm happy with my LIDGE so I'll pass. And I enjoy overspraying as well! I think the hay keeps it out of cloying territory.
good point

I was laser focused on vetiver and then I get this, I think I was taken aback how green it was but not by the vetiver.
I have this one ..I love it
It's excellent!

perhaps that's how I'll feel, I haven't worn it since this video so we will see.
Don’t say you wore your green watch by accident lol. That juice color was sweet, wasn’t it?
It was, I'm such a sucker for colouring lol
Guru, what's the closest thing to the original M7 you've smelt that is currently in production?
Oud Wood Tom Ford.
