Major Seventh
----P5----
-------M7-------
 
A rather consonant set of intervals, with the exception of the M7. So long as the major 7th isn't voiced right against the root or octave, it isn't unbearable. The dual perfect fifths and extra M3 add to the consonance of the chord. Overall, I find the major 7th is quite consonant and peaceful, but there's something deep inside the chord that feels mysterious and subtly unresolved.
