The review

Verve scores 7.2 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing MYSLF.

Mod Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is MYSLF's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.

At $45 it costs 73% less than MYSLF.

Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Mod 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

Yves Saint Laurent MYSLF is bergamot and orange blossom at first, orange blossom and lavender at its heart and patchouli, ambrofix and woody notes at the end. Mod Fragrances set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Top

  • bergamot
  • orange blossom

Heart

  • orange blossom
  • lavender

Base

  • patchouli
  • ambrofix
  • woody notes
Creamy orange blossom over ambery woods, contemporary and very easy to wear.

Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
