Bought for me as a gift a couple of years ago by my son and daughter-in-law.synthetic, sweet opening but virtually no sillage and reduced to a weak skin scent after 1 hour.I know it’s only a cheapie but at around the same price range I’d recommend Cerruti 1881 instead, much better, classier fragrance and performance.

Just got this one. M is an interesting, sweet, very pleasant and unique juice that evolves. Starts with a fruity note, then changes to a herbal/spicy/peppery smell. The dry down is a soapy/green fragrance which is really nice. Stays fresh throughout. Actually, on me, it has moderate to good longevity and a lovely silage which lasts and projects well. This was a blind buy but, I really love M and I’ll buy it again.

Generic designer Label brand with The tropical ocean beautiful blue of the bottle! But sadly, the haloween scare is that it’s Mr/Mrs generic again.
It’s your usual designer fare all over with fresh top but this one tries token little bit of variety with a combination of stuff that could be watermelons/melons with bergamot and dash of coconut.
It sounds pleasant and tries to be initially as all designer openings do, but just appears a synthetic hazy, powdery even confused offering in the end. Sometimes cloying and never properly natural or refined.
I’m really not sure what the listed guiac woods, tonka and musk are for in a class aquatic? I definitely cannot detect any of these notes let alone begin to enjoy them! Ozone and calone to complete the misery. Sorry.
Certainly try Virgin Island water; a real sun-kissed sea beach scent. The samples are cheaper than a bottle of this too!
If you want a cheaper summery acquatic designer go for the Davidoff Game line. Much nicer and for only £10 a 50ml bottle, you cannot go wrong!
Rating: 3/10.

Quick story about this fragrance:
I was at my friends house getting ready for a night out, he’s not knowledgeable about frags nor is he a collector, I think he owns maybe 2 or 3 bottles which were probably gifts.
Anyway before we left he got out a bottle of this Ted Baker M and put on 3 sprays, me being a fragrance addict and serious collector I kind of laughed at him (in a friendly way) and said something along the lines of ‘Thats not going to last half an hour mate’.
I was wearing around 5 sprays of Aventus. Anyway, we were out all night and guess what – he got just as many compliments and got noticed on his fragrance as much as I did!
Moral of the story is: Don’t judge a fragrance by it’s price, it’s brand or how many dislikes it has on Fragrantica 😀

As said before, love or hate. I personally quite like it, though I’ve grown bored of it a little. My partner does not like it much, she says it smells (to quote me describing various other fragrences, talk about kicking yourself in the face…) a little bit “sh*tbag”. Only a bit… Again, like someone said, I’d quite like a smell any other fragrances really similar, there’s an element of it I REALLY like… but I’m not sure. Melon, as Ouch! says, perhaps… fruity.
On an off chance, if you’re like me, try out Boss Red… to me, that’s what I imagined it smells like, while Boss Red actually DOES smell that good!

I really like this one for spring/summer day wear. Very masculine and to me somewhat unique. However you should try before you buy as you either will love or hate it

Hmm I don’t konw what to make of this. I just received it as a gift and am not totally blown away. It smells alot like things I’ve smelled before and I would not pick this out of a line of scents as being unusual or different in anyway. It’s very typically masculine smelling, and there IS something about it that’s really nice. It kind of smells like it’s a got a fresh melon/aquatic note in here and that’t the overal feel of the scent. It’s not very strong, but I’m not sure about the quality of other Ted Baker scents. This on is not a strng one though..
Overall..a slightly disspointing scent.
