I just got a bottle of SMW and i feel it strongly resembles SMW, at least in the dry down. Not saying its exact so please no hate for that. What do others think of the fragrance itself. For those who own it does BPHS get compliments? and do you think ts a more masculine take of SMW?

i understand its made of finer quality ingredients but i am saying bphs feels like a masculine take on it. If you own bphs what do you think of it, does it get compiments?

I get compliments when wearing Soir. Can't compared it to SMW tho. I haven't tried the latter.

Bulgari pour Homme Soir by Bulgari - An initial burst of refreshing bergamot, halfway between a lemon and an orange, with its tart and juicy green and very faint mint-like aspects, professes the clean and fresh opening. The darjeeling tea beckons the invigorating bergamot to stew in the heart, and infuses it with its somewhat powdery and medicinal woodiness morphing the sharp citrus into a more fruity bent. Guaiacwood, with its honey and smoky features, and papyrus, with its withered grassy and light wood facets, serve as a background for the simmering brew, which has acquired a sweet and wet earthiness. The waiting base, with its soft and almost syrupy amber as well as its radiant and slightly soapy musk, tugs for recognition and carries the tea blend to its delightful drydown. This classy fragrance can be an all-season treat, and has average projection, becoming a skin scent, and good longevity.

I personally like Bvlgari Pour Homme Soir WAY better than I like Creed Silver Mountain Water. I've been wearing Soir for years! I tried Silver Mountain Water, and I decided that it is not something I'd like to wear. Honestly, Soir is one of my most complimented colognes. I've had female co-workers follow me because of it and I've also had a female college Psychology teacher stop class and say, "Somebody smells REALLY good." She said that right after I walked into the class. I'll always make sure to have a bottle Soir in my wardrobe.
