Is it Worth It?
Maharjan Silver is a solid alternative. If you love the idea of Silver Mountain Water but can't justify the Creed price tag, this is a good everyday grab. It's perfect for the office, gym, or casual outings. This will get you close enough for most people, most of the time.
Scent Breakdown
Maharjan Silver kicks off with a bright, citrusy bang. Bergamot and mandarin are definitely there, though a bit sharper and more synthetic than the natural zest you get in Creed's Silver Mountain Water. The green tea note is present, but it's more of a general "green" accord than a nuanced tea. The blackcurrant heart is okay, adding a slightly tart touch. The base is where it deviates most. It's musky and woody, but the sandalwood feels a little generic compared to the smoother dry down of the original. Overall, it gets you about 87% of the way to Silver Mountain Water.
How Long Does it Last?
Projection is moderate for the first hour or two, creating a decent scent bubble. Longevity is respectable . I get about 5-6 hours on my skin before it fades into a faint skin scent. It's not a beast mode fragrance, but it does the job for a workday.
