To me Silver Mountain Water is a green citrus with a cooling metallic tinge. It smells familiar, but I’m pretty sure in most instances, it was other companies copying from Creed, so you can’t hold that against Silver Mountain Water.

It’s a nice, orange, musky, soapy and green tinged refreshing scent. The metallic or mineralic aspect adds some needed complexity. Creed as whole never wowed me, but Silver Mountain Water is one of their better releases for my taste.

For my liking, the drydown goes a bit too sweet for an otherwise fresh scent that I would prefer in warm weather. It’s nice, but not necessarily a special niche scent.
