The composition

Silver Mountain Water opens bright and cold, with bergamot and orange sharpened by blackcurrant and a green snap of galbanum. Tea and a crisp ozonic note follow, giving it a cool, faintly metallic clarity, like air off snow. Sandalwood and musk settle underneath, clean and soft.

It wears clean and quietly bright, with a tart edge from the blackcurrant that keeps it distinct among fresh scents. A natural pick for warm days, and for anyone who likes tea, citrus and cool, mineral freshness.

How it wears

Silver Mountain Water is at its best on warm days and in daytime settings, the office included. The citrus and blackcurrant are brightest at first; then tea and the cool, faintly metallic accord it is known for take over, settling into soft musk. Parfumo voters rate its longevity and sillage as moderate, so it stays clean and close rather than loud.

Compared with

Green Irish TweedCreed
The other fresh Creed classic it is most often weighed against. Green Irish Tweed is greener and creamier, with verbena, violet and sandalwood. Silver Mountain Water is colder and fruitier, with blackcurrant, tea and a metallic edge.
Royal OudCreed
Its woodier sibling in our catalog. Royal Oud warms grapefruit and cardamom with cedar, incense and a soft oud. Silver Mountain Water stays cool throughout, with tea and musk where Royal Oud has wood.
