Scentonym Analysis
Our objective metric for performance per dollar.
Final Thoughts
Magnate Premier is a solid daily driver for anyone who likes the Silver Mountain Water DNA but balks at the Creed price tag. you get a very similar experience. It's perfect for the office or a casual outing. The synthetic edge is noticeable if you're actively looking for it, but honestly, most people won't know the difference. This is a fantastic alternative for everyday wear.
The Scent Profile
Magnate Premier nails the Silver Mountain Water vibe, maybe 80% of the way there. That bright, citrusy opening is spot-on: Bergamot and mandarin are front and center. The green tea note is dialed up a bit, a touch more grassy than the airy original. Blackcurrant comes through nicely in the heart, a bit fruitier here though, leaning slightly synthetic compared to Creed’s smoother execution. The base is where it deviates most. Instead of a crisp ambergris, it's a muskier, sandalwood-heavy drydown. Still pleasant, just less refined.
The Performance Stats
Okay, let's be real. This isn't Creed-level performance. Expect around 5-6 hours on skin, which is decent. Projection is moderate for the first hour, then it settles closer to the body. Definitely an "arms-length" scent. Reapplication might be needed if you want it to last all day.
