Al Qiam Silver

Olfactory Experience

Al Qiam Silver nails the Bvlgari Pour Homme vibe. The opening is that clean, almost soapy tea and bergamot blast. It's refreshing, but has a slightly sharper, synthetic edge compared to the original Bvlgari. The heart brings in peppery iris and a touch of smoky guaiac. This is where it deviates a bit – the woodiness is a bit more pronounced in Al Qiam. The drydown is a musky, vetiver-cedar blend. Very pleasant, very safe. I'd say it’s about 91% similar to Bvlgari Pour Homme.

Wear time & Sillage

Longevity is surprisingly decent . I get about 5-6 hours on my skin. Projection is moderate for the first hour, then settles into a skin scent. Good for close encounters, not a room filler. Perfect for the office where you don’t want to overwhelm your colleagues.

Bottom Line

This is a great daily driver if you like clean, inoffensive scents. If you want a fresh, clean, office-friendly scent without breaking the bank, this is a winner. Al Qiam Silver gets you most of the way there. Buy this if you want a solid, everyday fragrance that won't offend anyone.
