Scentonym Analysis
Our objective metric for performance per dollar.
The Scent Profile
Supremacy Not Only Intense (SNOI) nails the crisp, citrusy mountain air vibe of Creed's Himalaya, but with a noticeable Afnan twist. The opening is a blast of grapefruit and lemon, maybe a tad sharper and more synthetic than Himalaya's refined bergamot. The sandalwood heart emerges quickly, lending a creamy, woody depth. The base is where it deviates most; heavier on the musk and ambergris, giving it a slightly denser, almost powdery feel compared to Himalaya's cleaner, more airy drydown. I'd say it's about 91% similar; close enough for most situations.
The Performance Stats
This stuff performs. Longevity is impressive, easily lasting 7-8 hours on my skin. Projection is moderate for the first 2 hours, creating a noticeable scent bubble without being obnoxious. It settles closer to the skin after that, leaving a pleasant trail. You'll definitely get noticed without choking anyone out. If you love that fresh, citrusy-woody fragrance profile but can't stomach Creed's price tag, this is a no-brainer. The slight synthetic edge in the opening is the only real drawback, and it fades quickly. If you’re looking for an everyday, versatile scent that won't break the bank, buy it. SNOI does the job just fine.
