Alfred Dunhill Desire Silver is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015. Desire Silver opens with Bergamot and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Violet Leaf, Cardamom, and Rainwater, and dries down to a base of Amber, Vetiver, and Birch. Alfred Dunhill's Desire Silver carries a Favourite verdict, an aquatic-led wear.

This is a real marmite scent that divides opinion: some find it a fresh, versatile aquatic with surprising depth for the price, others dismiss it as a synthetic mess. It's affordable, but don't expect a crowd-pleaser for everyone.

About

Opens with a brisk, zesty splash of bergamot and mandarin, quickly giving way to an aquatic heart where violet leaf and dewy rainwater notes create a cool, ozonic breeze. As it settles, a smoky, slightly leathery birch emerges, underpinned by earthy vetiver and a hint of warm amber, adding unexpected woodland depth to its initial freshness.
