The review

On paper, Silver Shade is a strong bet if you want Silver Mountain Water for less.

Ajmal sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Silver Mountain Water's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.

At $19 per 100ml it costs 96% less than Silver Mountain Water — the cheapest of 29 twins we can price.

Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Ajmal publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.

What it's built to smell like

The original opens on bergamot and mandarin, turns to green tea and blackcurrant, and settles into musk, sandalwood and galbanum. That is the brief Silver Shade is working from.

Top

  • bergamot
  • mandarin

Heart

  • green tea
  • blackcurrant

Base

  • musk
  • sandalwood
  • galbanum
For alpine mornings. Bergamot and green tea shimmer over blackcurrant and clean musk — crisp, airy and elegantly understated.
