Sweet, powdery, masculine, decent

I bought this blind.
After the first sniff I thought I did not like this. It's quite a sweet fragrance that was confusing to my nose.
After 2 wearings that sweetness became much more tolerable. In the opening this fragrance is a bit of a mess and it can be a bit harsh which I think is caused by the orris root. The more it dries down the less sweet and more smooth it becomes.
After about 20 minutes this turns into a very beautiful, sweet powdery and pretty unique fragrance. After that it's very linear, which is a good thing for this one. Suitable for any situation except in summer heat.

I don't understand Sejano's statement because this lasts a decent amount of time for me. I don't like to express longevity in hours because this is so dependent on temperature, humidity, inside/outside wear, skin, etc. Although it does not project much after ~3 hours, it does have decent lasting power. I'd say performance is slightly above average in general,

This is not a safe blind buy. I ended up liking this a lot but I can imagine some won't.
Also taking into account the price (

Love it or hate it

I bought this fragrance without ever having heard it. I was not completely disappointed but I am not even very happy. At first impression I tell you that it looks like a quality fragrance, no synthetic smells, plus it evolves very well. BUT(!!!!!), it's not for everyone. Some say it looks like Allure Home sport Extreme, but they have nothing in common, although I would have liked it very much. I don't like the opening, it smells like a cranberry juice cocktail and for some notes it reminds me a lot of Alien Man. After that it evolves well and is very pleasant. The duration is impressive, BUT (!!), the projection is not very strong, it remains very long as a scent of skin. Be careful, it is not for everyone. It's not that kind of smell you like right away, it's a difficult fragrance. The two things I like about this scent are the Longevity and its very complicated evolution.

Longevity on skin - 9.5/10
Projection - 5/10
Scent - 5/10
Overall - 6.5/10

Silver Essence - fitting name!

When I hear Silver Essence, I associate it with a kind of light, bright and cool silver thread floating through the dark, heavy room!
At least, that's how I would describe how I visually imagined the name. And this imagination, after testing the perfume, has also burned itself into my head! Because to my mind, this perfume smells exactly like its name. But in turn.

As for the bottle, I can the review of Hendrik20 only right; comes high quality and simple therefore. No frippery, but classically stylish. The spray head is good, you can not complain.

Also what concerns the durability, can not be grumbled. Although the fragrance is a "typical Tonka-Drydown-Brei" towards the end, but from about 8 hours of life can but a "The One" eg only dream! So definitely a plus point, besides the not too high price of course.

The sillage is not necessarily room-filling, but still quite decent. And the sillage is, in my opinion, the strength of Silver Essence: He smells directly on the skin for my concepts namely different than in the environment: The fragrance cloud is for me a light, floral-fruity sweetness marked by lavender and a slightly more pointed note (ginger or violet according to the indication above? Not sure!?) to which after some time discreetly joins the rose. Cardamom also peeps by from time to time.
The sillage is not intrusive, not heavy, but simply fresh, invigorating, slightly playful and yet not a bit feminine.
If you go a little closer or wait until the heart note shows itself, then the somewhat "heavier", spicy-earthy, tart notes come through. Dominant here are tonka and the earthy-woody note, which I can not exactly assign. Not bad by any means, but already familiar from other perfumes. A really strong contrast to the airy lightness of the top note! The perfume therefore seems to me a little "schizophrenic" if you will: a light, bright silver thread floating through the dark heavy space.

I for one, perceive the light and the heavy notes "separately" or "side by side" so to speak, and find that because of this, it's not quite as round a thing as it could possibly be. Therefore, he will unfortunately find in the long run no place in my collection.
Did I regret it to have bought him! But not at all! The top note and sillage are fantastic and definitely worth a try!
And maybe others do not see the schizophrenia of this fragrance so closely and have desire to dip their currently dark environment (year 1 after Corona) in a bright silver!
