Silver Mountain Water Creed for men

After finishing my 120ml bottle, i can say:

it is a lovely cool smell , just as you sit alone for resting in a quite,and may be even silent space , so it is not sociable

smell:9/10
sillage 10/10
longivity 10/10

Smell like thousand flowers. I feel that there is a little bit of Arabian influence with this perfume.

This fragrance is designed for men.. but i'm a girl and like to used it occasionnaly when i'm in sport/gym spirit... It's clean and safe for use it anywhere and kind of unisex..since it sounds not "too masculine".

Overrated!!!

Beautiful - best for the summer. Very clean, fresh (thanks to tea, blackcurrant and violet accords). A great frag although disappears too quickly - only approx. one hour on my skin - you have to reapply very often to have the possibility to smell it on, so you may run out of a 120 ml bottle veeery quickly.

It smells just like Sun Java white for men. If you want a cheap one , use Sun java white.

Man, I tell you! What a piece of Art this is. So appropriately named, it evokes the peace & quiet world of mountains with its fresh uplifting air. I climbed a few myself although the highest being being barely above 2000m but this scent really captures the feeling of such trips. Sometimes if you walk among mountain peaks you feel a sort of "pressure" of respect that you develop for these amazing creatures of nature and Iam not kidding, I even smell this feeling in SMW. Its somehow in there. Its a masterpiece and togehther with Virgin Island Water the very best you can get.

I remember my first SMW was a fake one. I got it from ebay. I paid a 100 bucks. I didnt know was fake til I went to Neiman Marcus. even thou was fake i used just to spend it and people still love it so after i finished all the juice i went to neiman marcus and I bought a bottle but it costed like 300 bucks but it was worth it.

the minute I smelled this I knew I had smelled something similar from my collection and it just didnt take long to get it:Silver by Al-Rehab.
I can see some people making the same observation.of cos this has just a little/soft sweetness to it but apart from that you can hardly tell them apart.

I guess I got to go back and start using my Silver bottle which is gathering dust and stock up as well. I didnt think I would find it competing with a Creed fragrance!!

There must be a warping of the Time/Space Continuum. This is the most disgusting fragrance I've ever smelled. And it's not even strong. The smell of making fake fingernails with Elmer's glue in the canals in your plastic ruler in grade school. Except grade school was fun. I actually returned the sample that was forced onto me at Neiman Marcus and said "you can't be serious". I think I figured out the name: Like a corpse in a mountain stream with the cold flowing water preventing full-on putrescence but still allowing some hideous white fluid to ooze out.

I love it but it is too pricey.Considering this could be my staple and a signature scent,i may save up my pennies.I have Al rehab's silver oil for my fix.

Like most of creed they didn't do anything unique but extremely good quality.
It does reminded me of ck one those type of scent in much naturel way.
Very green and have clear citrus pattern in it, i wonder why citrus isn't in the note pyramid!
To have this price for the smell,i wouldn't recommand it.
A naturel herbal citrusy smell with very good projection and average longevity.
Suitable for warm weather.

A nice, but overrated scent IMO. Initially it seems like top-notch and exquisite for fragrance novices who've only experienced mainstream/designer compositions. But once this person has sampled enough of "better" and more nice/well-composed scents, it soon fades from memory.

Again, I'm not denying it has a lovely, fresh and beguiling presence - it certainly can help train new noses to base aromachemicals like ambroxan and iso-e-super. Many years back it might just have incorporated higher-quality components rather than now - but I consider this frag as a gateway scent to propel the user to seek out compositions that take the art even further.

Once more - I do actually like this scent since it marks a change in fragrance perception for myself many years ago. And I do still continue to wear it on occasions that have a need for a very "white" and fresh feel - but recently I feel that this occasion is happening less often.

Nice, fresh and non-offensive. I keep thinking that I have smell this before. The scent is very elegant and classy, it also casual enough to wear daily. A very beautiful scent, still I wonder if its price is really worth purchasing

Several years ago, I fell in love with this scent. For some reason, I loved it and I am a woman, but it is clearly a men's scent. I do not know what it was about it, but as this point in my life, I would buy it for my man, but not for me.

It is very appealing for a man, but I do not know what I was thinking when I was so "head over heels" over it for myself.

Incredible smell. No more words.

Starts well fresh and clean and ends like a "trashy metallic smell".

It is on my shelf for years and I use it vey rarely just to convince myself that it was not a total money waste.

Please, never make a blind buy on Silver mountain water. Please TEST it, and make sure it suits you.

A scent which on paper is one of the best of all time but on me, adds a spicy twist which completely ruins it..

0-5 mins - fantastic, fresh, clean air, natural ingredients without heaviness of earth feeling, sexy and modern, this is resereved for the top dog - from the Quarter Back in U.S football to the lead pianist in the Albert Hall - this transcends who can wear it, but consistently the best...

5 mins -2 hours- Projects ok but now 50% spiciness kicks in which never appeared on the paper, and has runied the special moment completely. Projection around 1 foot around

2 hours- 5 hours. Projects approx 6 inches, linear scent. Close to the skin

Perhaps just my chemistry, not sure, but not for me when on my skin, gutted, as on paper it smelt absolutely stunning

This is the best thing I have ever smelled in my life.

My god. I had an ex-boyfriend who wore this and raved about it. Things didn't work out with him, but man, I'll always remember the blackcurrant silver mountain water. It smells exactly how it sounds. Probably the only perfume I've ever seen that is as aptly named.

The thing I probably love most about it is that it's ultra-refreshing and icy without being too heavy on the citrus stuff.

It's wonderful.

i really dont like this, too feminine for a man, i purchased a big bottle blind and regret it. Just my opinion

What makes Creed niche product is not the scent (though they're not so extraordinary and generally are familiar and routine), but it's the quality which is jaw drawing.
I got it near to Chanel Egoist Platinum with some narrow outlines; Chanel is deep, transparent and sour cold but SMW is shallow, faint and dense.
The scent didn't surprise me as I had expected actually, but fairly the quality and the way it presents is just remarkable. Not offensive and not so bold. Calm, gentle and confident it projects massively.

longevity: should I say anything? 10/10

projection: of course supernatural but you need to try it to understand what I want to say and I can't! It's not the only "how massive", it's the way it projects that barely can be found in other perfumes, 10/10

IT IS A MASTERPIECE!
I really don't know what to say about this. It's freezing.
When Silver Mountain Water goes to a formal party, all the other perfumes will bend in front of it, because it's too unique and alluring and royal and really beautiful and lux. It says I'm expensive!
I really have to buy it.
It's so unique that it can't be used everyday. It's just for special occasions.
Thumbs up Creed!
Scent: 10/10
Uniqueness: 11/10!!!! Because it's so special.
Projection: 10/10
Longevity: Absolutely 10/10
What can I say?! Just PERFECT
Overall 10/10

Just a simple review from me (28-year-old Male from bay area, CA)

This is the seventh Creed fragrance I've purchased.

I originally did not go into Neiman Marcus thinking I was going to purchase this, as I originally had my mind made up on purchasing Erolfa--which I might purchase next. The sales lady who knows me very well for purchasing fragrances convinced me into purchasing this and was surprised at the fact that I don't already own this.

This is an interesting fragrance, versatile for any season, any occasion, any time of day/night, for a male/female of any age.

The green tea note is the most domininant on my skin. Perhaps this is Creed's Himalaya with Bvlgari's Green Tea mixed in?

I never thought about this, but after reading other reviews on Silver Mountain Water, I actually can smell "ink" in this fragrance. But since Creed is higher-end in fragrances, I'll just consider it a classier ink--calligraphic perhaps? LOL

Other reviews mention "cold freezer air", and that I have yet to think about...I don't spend time sniffing out the freezer for me to understand and relate.

Other than that, this isn't my favorite but it does get thumbs up in my book.

Neat and transparent in the opening, reminds me angels with white wings and a gold ring above their head but just after divine opening it turns to a little white opaque royal powdery way which is not king size that much.

Longevity: about Creed perfume this is not a question of skin, they normally stay perfectly on any surface! 10/10

Projection: Mostly, Creed perfumes scent massively and penetrating, 10/10

Icy frish muscles from Creed House

You hit sour Black currant green tea with icy mountain winds .

The original mix according to Creed :
In his workshop, Mr. CREED blends bergamot, mandarine, petitgrain, green tea and a touch of musk with black currant

hi my dear colleagues, today i purchased this luxurious frag. after smelling many others but this one was unique simply diffrent from all others.

My first impression only i get musk smell in a good aroma

i will give it time to judge it.

But I have some dought, i purhased it from the biggest perfume store in egypt,Mazaya, but the lot no. on the backage carton is written on a sticker placed over the backage carton ,is it usually done by creed or not?

hope someone reply me.

Fantastic fragrance from Creed. Sillage is perfect, longevity is excellent, and the scent itself is outstanding. Perfectly balanced unisex as it's not too femanine nor masculine. Don't try to compare it to other fragrances because there isn't one. It's unique and in a very good way. Many of the Creeds have longevity issues which really is their only downfall for the price. This one has it all and many will say Creeds aren't worth the price and blah..blah..blah. One thing that they won't say is that they smell cheap or synthetic. When you buy a Creed your buying a timeless fragrance. Often copied but never exceeded.

Oh my, yes inded SMW is clear, sharp, cool and !ultra! lasting!!!! Scent stays on my clothes and I can feel it near me the next morning.
On me, SMW doesn't change its character that much but I can detect undertones after 2 hours.
I'm loving this. Even though this is unisex, on my opinion it feels quite masculine.
Well, SMW is a scent man can borrow the next morning, when a lady invites for "a cup of coffee" after a datenight. I sure would like to cuddle a guy wearing this!!!! Because I'm wearing it !!
;-)

This is a great fragrance, may be a little bit overpower at start but soon as you get the drydown it turns really pleasant, perfect for those hot days of spring and summer start, my recommendation will be to get a sample before you do a blind buy, not all people like the start of this fragrance.

A good release from Creed. A fresh and slightly metallic summer fragrance with a mysterious twist. Tea (IMO black tea), black currant and citruses in the opening joined by a metallic note that's amazingly (and surprisingly) pleasant. The musky drydown has all of the Creed's hallmarks. For better or for worse. A good fragrance but try it first.

Rating: 7/10

There are two batch variations of Silver Mountain Water out there, one with a mineral green tea pungency and the other boasting blackcurrant. Both versions have blackcurrant and green tea, but the poles are reversed depending on which you end up with, and you get either a tea-forward or berry-forward rendition. I prefer the former, but it seems lately most have been receiving the latter when they purchase or sample Silver Mountain Water, and that's a shame.

The grittier green tea batch is a truly wonderful fresh scent, one that takes the brightness of citrus and the bitter greenness of the tea and fills it out with berry and ambergris accords. Taken together, the inkjet printer note is perceived, although not really a formal element of the composition. This version is found in older bottles.

The fresher blackcurrant batch has a very bright citrus and aquatic-berry top, which transitions into a negligibly darker tea and ambergris base. There isn't a whole lot to this version - it's basically fresh, lemony, and clean. Like Millesime Imperial, it's also boring, and more than a little effeminate.

I prefer the darker Green Irish Tweed and Himalaya over Silver Mountain Water, although if you are a fan of fruity aquatics, I can understand the appeal here. Given the unpredictability of the batches (which is charming in most other instances with Creed), I can't fully endorse this unless you're a young woman looking for something well-made and a bit different. In this regard, and for those who prefer offbeat scents, you can't go wrong, but in all other cases you're better off looking elsewhere.

I will probably be called nuts about this but this one and Himalaya are so close to me in scent that I almost want to say that they are interchangeable. This one is milder though but more metallic. I do like it though and wouldn’t mind having it. Also, I am judging the drydown which is really quite nice.

Im buying this blind, as all the reviews sold me, got a good price on ebay so decided to go along with it. I hope this scent is great

i dont like this scent, smells wierd, the first spray is nice, but if u spray it again it overpowers it and leaves a very strong mecanical scent...

This is SEX in a bottle.. In love with it. I can smell it on any one while kilometers away.. I think this is how heaven smells like.

I read that David Bowie wears this.

I fell in love with this one, very pricey fragrance indeed. I compared it to Himalaya, and they are totally different. I wouldn't say Himalaya is better, it's just different, more sporty and fresh.

The only problem is, that I can see myself wearing it ONLY if I wear white clothes and reject any sins! And bath in milk, lol.

9/10

So I've read a lot about Creed, and got a sample of Silver Mountain Water to feed my curiosity. Some say that it's way overpriced, and overhyped. Others say it's worth every penny. Completely unbiased to either side, I gave SMW a try, and here's what I found.

This stuff really is a work of art.

Generally, I'm not a fan of cold, metallic scents at all, but this one - wow. It actually smells like the name suggests. I honestly have no bloody idea what a mountain smells like, let alone a silver one - but if I had to imagine it, this would be it.

I'm so tired of generic, fresh scents. And even though this one has been around for 16 years, it doesn't smell remotely dated. Unbelievable stuff.

If anyone has read or seen the movie "The Perfume" might remember the part where Master Baldini smells the perfume that Grenouille had created for him when they first met. He opens the bottle, smells the aroma, and suddenly everything around him is transformed into a beautiful flower garden, then a woman slowly approaches him and says to his ear: "I love you" This is one of the few perfumes that when I first smelled it literally made me feel that way... For a few seconds I thought I was in heaven.

Beyond notes, duration, longevity or sillage, this perfume is just wonderful. My all time favorite.

Please guys, don't put notes like patchouly and violet root when it's not in there...


REAL NOTES (taken from OFFICIAL site) are:

* Top Notes: Bergamot, mandarin
* Middle Notes: Green tea, black currant
* Base Notes: Galbanum, musk, sandalwood, petit grain

No doubt, one of the best Creed's composition. Clear and could, fresh and warm. Simple, but in one way intriguing.
Noble and unique.

What can I say about SMW? It's beautifully done. Best worn in fall/winter weather or spring IMO! It last all day but extremely close 2 the skin. The tea note is wonderful! I love scents like this, but I also love my scents to project enough that others will say gosh, u smell great! Nevertheless a really nice fragrance especially when it starts to dry down!

When my CREED samples arrived today (Thanks sherapop!) This is the one I opened first, drawn not by the reviews below or the notes, but the name. SMW to me evokes the freshness of a mountain lake or fast moving brook...clean, clear, fresh, and Silver? Why it is one of my favorite colors and my jewelery metal of choice. SMW did not disappoint me one bit...

The notes are listed as if this is a linear scent, however I noticed a distinct development with this. It opened fresh and slightly sweet and as it began to dry I felt the distinct impression that I was floating, the scent was so light and pure. It is a very unisex frag but infinitely more well-done than most. The violet root adds just a glint of a metallic feel and is earthy and juicy at the same time, yet never dirty or "muddy". The only note even vaguely aquatic is the currant, and it's just enough to lend a watery feel without smellin 'caloney'. This smelled great in the vial, wonderful on my skin inside but when I stepped outside and the breeze hit me it truly blossomed into something so much more than the notes in the bottle...heavenly!! Four and a half hours later I can still smell the fresh airiness of it and the patchouli is clean and the musk light. This is great for summer/spring but would be quite refreshing in the fall also. This incorporates air, water and earth in a composition that transcends them all...

Sillage: close but good
Longevity: decent
Overall: 4.25/5

The green tea note in this is well blended and not as prominant as say cK 1 or a Bvlgari scent but it complements the other notes enough to freshen them without being too much like a hot cuppa Celestial Seasonings...

Great unisex fragrance.. =D
I'm a woman but I want to have Full Bottle of this clean, fresh, cool breeze, lovely, everyday fragrance, for myself.. =D
It's very executive-class..
Not too flowery, not too masculine.. A perfect unisex fragrance!! =D
& I like this much more better than Eau De Cartier which is Unisex too.. ^^
What a pity, the price is so high.. =(

If you like this scent but don't want to pay high price, try Silver from Al-Rehab.

CREED MASTERPIECE , this is a unique fragrance ,fresh , sweet ,light , flowery .I cant describe it only i can say its marvelous & amazing Its my No 1 top favourate fragrance for ever.
i love it? Im obsessed by it.

Hi.

Every collectionar needs a CREED.why?because this brand is special.this cologne is one of my favorite (in my top 5).

SMW is very original,different,fresh and elegant for younger man (between 20/30 years old) but for teen boys it doesent fit.

The people around me feel it and like it asking me what perfume i use?i wear more often during the spring/summer days in ofiice.

Anyway very lovely scent from the begining until it end.not simple in my opinion this is elaborate and harmonic composition of notes.the longevity is amazing on my skin.one word i adore it.

Thank you CREED.

To my nose, Creed SILVER MOUNTAIN WATER bears a remarkable similarity to the openings of Moschino CHEAP & CHIC and OH! Some serious organic chemistry synthesis has gone into this little test tube, er, vial.

Not my cup of tea, although tea is apparently a note in this composition, along with others which I usually like. I just find that the overwhelmingly synthetic quality drowns out the natural notes. It's all too cold and forbidding. Not really masculine; not really feminine. It's so uninviting that I would label it asexual. Might be related structurally to some of the Calvin Klein liquids sold in gallon jugs and marketed as uni-frags to "modern" couples who dress only in black and white.

SILVER MOUNTAIN WATER reminds me a bit of shiny chrome kitchen appliances: interesting to look at from a distance, prefer not to touch. Definitely do not want them in my home.

SILVER MOUNTAIN WATER reminds me of Splenda. Or Nutrasweet. Or Saccharin. Or Cyclamates. (I really prefer sugar.)

SILVER MOUNTAIN WATER is cubic zirconium. Or cut glass.

Bright metallic violet root and green tea with hints of soil and patchouli. It smells like clean dirt, if you think of garden dirt in Spring. The onset is pretty nasty, but it dries down to a great summer scent, all green notes with sappy pepper. It's fresh without being aquatic or masculine, and I liked it a lot, but in the end it doesn't work on my skin as well as I'd like.

Another Creed fragrance that Olivier Creed probably thinks is worth it's weight in gold. Silver Mountain Water is a boring affair, just blackcurrants at the onset and musk on the drydown. It's not horrible, but it's certainly not remarkable and in my opinion, not worth hundreds of dollars.

This is a beautiful fragrance, so fresh and clean, it really makes you think of a beautiful mountain top with trees surrounding the base with a wonderful blue cloudless sky. Many people tend to smell a strong ink note, but I dont notice it very much, maybe its just me. I dont see anything wrong with this fragrance other than the fact that it could last a little bit longer, but other than that, this fragrance really is a piece of work. Its a great fragrance to wear during the spring or summer, but I see nothing wrong with wearing it year round. It is said to be Olivier Creeds fravorite, and for good reason. This scent has class, from beginning to end.

I wanted to like anything Creed, but am so glad I purchased a small decant to try before spending the huge $$ on this! It just did not excite me. I waited and waited for it to dry down into something vaguely enjoyable but that never happened. I just ended up washing it off and assuming my nose just isn't sophisticated enough to run with the Creed crowd!

Wasn't horrible like the other two Creed scents I tried, but definitely did not knock my socks off....and for the price there is NO WAY I would spend that to be underwhelmed.

I've tested it several times in the past four years and it's always seemed too sweet. I'm a big fan of Creed's scents, but I can't seem to appreciate this one. I've read it's Mr. Creed's favorite.

and incredible sexy, young, clean, expensive and fresh musky smell.... perfect tea, musk combo... like you are in a cold mountain smelling the fresh air that come from it in a sunny morning.. Irresistible... love this. another winner from Creed.

I have to sample this one again. I love this scent. It's young, mature, classic, modern easy to wear etc... well balanced one. Maybe a little weak but anyway a great scent!

I bought Silver Mountain Creed expecting something aquatic, fresh, cool, but I sprayed it on me and I got this strong flowery, fruity smell so I gave it to my wife telling her: I got this perfume but it is too feminine for me so you may want to use it. But a couple of hours later it was still going strong and the smell was still the same, and I started to like it. By late in the afternoon it was still going strong and the scent was still exactly the same and like it even better. Now it is still "my wife" cologne, but I am the one that uses it, I love it, people around me tell me how good I smell, and lasts all day long. Most colognes change thru the day, sometimes you love the opening notes, sometimes the bass notes or whatever, but with this one you would not have the problem, it smells exactly the same from the very beginning in the morning until late in the evening, and still it is strong. In 3 words "I love it"

A lovely fragrance. It's rather soft and sweet. It's fresh and works well even with women. It's not as strong or bracing as one would probably expect from the name though. The green tea note rounded out the floral ones well so it didn't smell too flowery.
I wanted to buy this one but it smelled a little close to the Creed Millesime Imperial which was my previous scent. At least compared to the others available.
And compared to the Himalaya, its scent faded a little quicker than I'd want, especially in hotter climates.

I read in InStyle that Jamie Foxx loves this one. Can't blame him .. the aroma of neroli, blackcurrants, tea and the creed base with a marine note is irresistible. Works well on women too.

this is in between a like and dislike, its more feminine than i had anticipated,my wife says it smells like something from estee lauder. That killed me.lol

Fresh, sweet, light, fun, and unique. This fragrance is a delight. It isn't powerful, and at first I thought it weak. But it is really growing on me.

It has a staying power that I had not noticed before, probably because of either olfactory fatigue or temporary selective anosmia, which is common with me.

I sprayed it on in this morning and it lasted me until afternoon. One refresher, and I'm good to the end of the day.

Silver mountain water. By the name I expected, cold fresh mountain air blowing through my hair, feeling the mist of a water fall. But unfortunately, all you get is black currant. Black currant does however, pick up the qualities of what you would expect a mountain to smell like but I think it lacks a few notes to make it a wonderful fragrance.

SIMPLY ROYAL..

Hooked on it the first time I use it. Never want to buy other perfumes anymore

The best cologne from creed...
I do love it... love it so much...

You can smell the ice of the peak of the mountain.
It freezes you..

A fabulous cologne!!
