Creed silver mountain water review

Thread Starter 
Applied this around 5:30 tonight after the gym, 1 spray to each forearm...seemed to project pretty good......smells like berries mixed with warm plastic...a certain type of plastic that is not displeasing........i really do not get the black tea note that many peope say or anything sharp or metalic......i thought this frag is quite nice and wearable...seems non ofensive and a casual type of scent... next time i might try only 1 or 1.5 sprays.

SMW is not one of my favorite Creed scents but it is very wearable.

I find SMW pleasing, comforting, and unique. Nothing smells like it in my collection. It is fresh, but there's some warmth there highlighting the sweetness in a non-cloying way.

When my wife and I was sampling it at the mall, she nodded her head and said "This is it." It projects nicely, but too powerful when sprayed full, especially in the first thirty minutes.

It is hyped as a spring/summer fragrance, but I find it wearable in the colder season as well. Two thumbs up for Silver Mountain Water... probably my current favorite Creed.

I love the scent but it just dies so quickly on my skin

I really love Silver Mountain Water. It is pricy and does have projection/longevity issues, but those faults aside, it's an excellent fragrance, and will always be a staple in my collection.

Yeah, this is one of my favorite scents, and also my SOTD. I also sprayed this three times on my clothing and got pretty good longevity & projection.

I like the metallic notes in it that give it a very modern and unique touch. Very wearable! I sampled many Creeds and for now this is my favourite.

I blind bought a 10ml decant. I find it boring, underwhelming, overpriced and unoriginal.

Longevity can be an issue for me. Needs re-applying.

one of my favorite Creed's. I do experience some longevity issues with this one, but aside from that, it's a great fragrance.

It took me a year but I've grown to really dig this fragrance for its understated iniqueness.

Recently acquired this from a fellow basenoter, and couldn't be happier.
I think it is my favorite Creed now, ahead of GIT and Aventus.
I'd had a sample vial for years, but had never experienced it from an
atomizer, especially a Creed atomizer, lol.

A wonderful fragrance, that I think/hope will be even better in Spring/Summer.

I have never had a SMW longevity issue. I have a 2010 batch, maybe I just lucked out?

Easily found at discount retailers, lasts for days on clothing, I personally have a 100% different experience than the above.

I should have charged more!

I'm glad you like it. I find some batches go heavy on the blackberry and light on the tea, while others do the opposite. But either way it's a great scent. I have a feeling I'll get it again, once my bottle numbers go down to a normal level.

Got another sample of this as i thought maybe my first sample was off. Though not as bad as i first thought it was, i'm still not a fan of smw ...
