Silver Rain by La Prairie
For: women Designer: La Prairie Olfactive Group: Oriental Floral
!The first fragrance from the top-of-the-line Swiss cosmetics brand, La Prairie. Silver Rain creators were inspired by the phenomenon that takes place in spring in the mountains of the Alps. Rain is transformed into ice crystals of breathtaking beauty. In the spring ,these crystal melt and fall from the height of 1000 feet. This is called “ silver rain”. This fragrance includes rare ingredients from all over the world. Top notes include spicy green apple, citrusy-floral accord of Verbena Blossom from the South of France, dewy red fruits, anise oil from Thailand and bergamot from Calabria. At its heart, Moroccan red rose petals meet Chinese star magnolia, tropical Agarwood and night-blooming Indian jasmine, leaving a trail of warm red sandalwood, creamy Tonka bean from Venezuela, heliotrope, vanilla from Madagascar and mix of different musks. The perfume was created by Claude Dir in 2004.
The Silver Rain collection includes numerous limited editions of this perfume: Silver Rain Shimmer Mist (2006), Silver Rain Brilliance, Silver Rain Cachette

i really like it BUT there are so many perfumes that smell very similer for half the price its a very nice perfume but not unique enough for what it costs if im gonna spend that much on a fragrance it has to be something very unique

This is such a wishy-washy, insipid perfume that I can't believe anyone would be gullible enough to part with so much money for a bottle of it! For such an overpriced perfume I would expect something special, not such a bland, dull kind of scent. The only relatively good thing about it is the bottle. On a scale of 1 to 5 Silver Rain would get a big fat 0 from me.

I think,this is the most elegant fragrance I ever smelled.I love perfumes generally and I love to experiment with them(I just dont like cheap and common fragrances).I was looking for something what I never tried before. I got a sample of Silver Rain and I took it home. I applied it on myself after shower and I just couldnt stop sniffing my skin. I was feeling absolutely special and glamours. My husband was really impressed and said he loves it too (surprise!he never comments what perfume im wearing).I do agree they are rather expensive but I hope Father Christmas will get one for me for Christmas:)))

I begged for this perfume as an anniversary gift, I love it! Got it in the lovely blue raindrop. Now it's the only one I'll wear for special evenings out with my beloved husband of 25 years. I have other "daily" scents but this puts my senses into that other worldly state of sensuality. Going to try Mariah Carey's Forever in a trial from a friend of mine.

Siver Rain is very similar to other oriental floral(vanilla) scented perfumes.In my opinion, Angel and other series of Angel"s Thierry" Mugler(like Le Lys and Violet) along with Ange ou Demon by Givenchy, belong in that same category.I do not think that Siver Rain is so different beyond the unique individuality and the chemistry of the person
wearing it!!!

Silver Rain is the best Oriental-Floral in my collection. It is my #1 choice for a romantic night out at Key Biscayne bay with my lovely husband who while enjoying a good wine, delicious hors devours and a breath taking view of Downtown Miami whispers to my ear how sexy I look tonight. Silver Rain is perfectly balanced with the finest ingredients. It is a sensual, provocative and passionate fragrance, which will sex you up. I know it is a bit pricey, but this scent will bring you confidence which makes it all worth it.

I think that this scent is absolutley divine and beautiful. I have a little decant of this scent and it's so extremely beautiful and lovley. It opens up as a really spicy and heady scent but the later it becomes much more sweet and fruity.
I think that this is an interesting and very complex perfume with very high qaulity.

its way too expensive! in general la prairie is a very expensive brand but i believe that that makes sense only for cosmetics and skin care lines (due to the ingredients of the creams etc.) what can i say? you just pay for the glamour of the brand in the case of la prairie's perfumes. surely its a high quality perfume, even though i think that there are plenty perfumes like this one in the market by chanel,dior and gucci...anyway,i wouldnt recommend it since its definetely a non-value purchase...

Absolutely hate it...it is too strong and cold, masculine like a male's fragrance...kicked me in the nose when i sniffed it...only tryed on paper though..don't want it on my skin for now....can try again when i'm in a mood but it is a no-no till then...

Yes, it's expensive here. Avon?! Is it a joke?!:)
Silver rain in my country is an exclusive parfume, hot, smookey scent. I like it!

I don' t find anything fruity in it - i smell only spicеs and flowers - on me is warm, sweet, oriental, but i don' t find something so special to defend the high price.

I was so excited when I found this fragrance at Neimen Marcus the other day. It did smell very wonderful in the store and on. Maybe I thought it should smell wonderful because of the hefty price tag...the sales clerk ended giving me a little sample to take home and try. I wore it the next day at work and it was just OK. I had others smell it, just OK and it smelled a little like something I already had although I just couldn't place it. Then in my drawer at work, I have a little mini of Dolce & Gabbana The One and for some reason, the smell is very similar. I may be off on this one, but that is what it seemed like to me. So long story, short..I don't think it's worth the money to buy a bottle and marianne is right, the bottle does not stand up very good.

Although I usualy find it dificult to name particular notes in perfumes, this one was definitely a plum from the very first or second sniff. And REAL SPICY one. Slightly too sweet, or perhaps plums so pronounced aren't for my taste at all.

Deliciously tempting!Sweet without overpowering,sexy without being vulgar,gourmand without reminding you straight of food.At first notes reminds me of an Angel`s base, but very quickly develops into something of it`s own character. I see why it`s called Silver rain - there is a certain freshness in the base notes that is watery fresh, like wet soil and the smell of wet garden foliage.It`s a bit pricey, but ....may be worth it.

Such a wonderful and unique perfume! I have yet to meet its match. Extremely long-lasting and fresh. It smells of genuine craftsmanship and quality.It is worth every penny!

It's a pity that this one is rather expensive! I love the fresh and fruity smell. The bottle can hardly stand on its own: minus

This is a divine and innocent smelling fragrance...sweet, light, but just as strong. It's got a little hint of powderiness which I'm not too fond of, but it's a great perfume otherwise. Reminds me of just-rained-on garden with fresh dewdrops. Don't know that I'll be able to afford this one any time soon, but it's on my most wanted list!
