The review
On paper, H7 is a reasonable bet if you want M7 for less.
Alexandria Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is M7's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $70 per 100ml it costs 53% less than M7 — the cheapest of 1 twins we can price.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Alexandria Fragrances publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
The original opens on bergamot, mandarin orange and rosemary, turns to agarwood (oud), vetiver and myrrh, and settles into amber, musk and mandrake. That is the brief H7 is working from.

Medicinal oud over amber and myrrh, the fragrance that opened Western perfumery to agarwood.
