I have an iteration of this 'PROMO' copy as well. However, it is Variation 'C', and the matrix, while exactly the same as those noted for the Variation 'D' shown above, are literally reversed on my record.
(Side A, Runout): ST-A-814775-B EDP M2 TOWNHOUSE LONDON
(Side B, Runout): ST-A-814776-B EDP MISF1SM2 TOWNHOUSE LONDON
The wording of gold promotional note stamped on the cover is the same other than the digits at the top of the stamped writing. Mine reads: S 247460
