Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Silver Mountain Water EDP
A crystalline, brisk, and impeccably clean green-citrus-musk that feels like the rush of icy Alpine water over smooth stones. Endlessly wearable, instantly recognisable, and the definition of effortless luxury.
Favourite
Our Verdict - Aspen EDP
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Creed Silver Mountain Water (1995) - bergamot, blackcurrant and musk translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.

Season and Occasion Fit

Silver Mountain Water

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

The extreme freshness, green tea, citrus, and subtle fruitiness make this a perfect signature for spring and summer, providing a cool and uplifting sensation even in heat. It can work in early fall, but lacks the warmth for winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual Sport
Also Works:
Formal

Subtle yet present, Silver Mountain Water is ultra-versatile for office, casual, or athletic wear and is refined enough for date or formal settings thanks to its elegant musky base and green tea nuance.

Aspen

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

Blackcurrant-citrus-tea natural spring-summer fit.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual Formal
