Silver Mountain Water

This Creed fragrance is indeed peculiar, particularly in its departure from the norm regarding ambroxan/ambergris notes found in other releases. The result is a musky scent enriched with fruity and tea notes, making it not for everyone, which is beneficial. Additionally, even considering it as a masterpiece release, it's still not my favorite from the brand. The opening is hit or miss for most people, being both strange and pleasant at once. A weird combination of metallic, musky fruits, and citruses emerges on the skin with the first spritz. It's a refreshing soapy energetic blend of blackcurrant, bergamot, and mild orange infused with muskiness. As heart notes kick in, I find this where the real magic happens, introducing green tea and ozonic accord. The ozonic accord is the only aspect that reminds me of the 1990s when many ozonic and aquatic scents were popular. At this stage, I still experience that ambiguity, a metallic touch of blackcurrant, and a delightful realistic green tea accord. When everything settles down, you're left with a clean, musky, slightly woody, and calming scent. The opening and middle notes are still present but not solid or bold anymore. It's not an overbearing fragrance, suitable for everyday wear, speaking to the early spring days when everything starts to blossom. SMW is not a perfect fragrance; it stands alongside every other perfume that has been released. I thought about whether it deserves holy grail status and concluded it wouldn't be fair not to place it here, considering its timelessness and quality recognized by millions of users who swear by its excellence.

When can I expect to see Silver Mountain Absolu hit the shelves?

🌸 In my opinion, this perfume exudes a distinctly feminine and floral character, accompanied by a subtle metallic undertone. Moreover, I found its projection to be relatively moderate on my skin. 😊

Goodness gracious, this fragrance is truly astounding! I'm compelled to rid myself of my entire perfume collection because the artistry in its composition leaves me underwhelmed. What are the key ingredients that result in a scent reminiscent of Nivea wipes and sunscreen? Is Nivea indeed comparable to Creed or has Creed fallen short of expectations like this fragrance has for me?

Wearing this perfume during my trip to Texas really allowed me to appreciate its nuances, making me particularly fond of it - I think it's especially well-suited for a younger demographic, like myself. Unfortunately, I'm unable to splurge on the larger size.
