@ThePharaoh: Too bad it doesn’t last on you, such a wonderful perfume. I think it might be the skin chemistry? Silver is one of the most long lasting perfumes in my collection, even better than Gold, or may be a reformulation?
zaripovvlad98 – :
Excellent beautiful clean soapy scent. People love it. Masculine.
One problem: it does not last . 3-4 hours and it’s gone. Sorry Amouage but this is not acceptable. I will not buy niche that does not last. Period!
And do not give me that crap about summer scents are supposed to be airy and light blah blah. NO. The summer niche I like lasts forever! Period!
Do not waste your money

Very well balanced. This is a master class on how to make an elegant citrus fragance.

Barbershop at its best. This is very underated, one of the best Amouage. Quality of the ingradients and blending are superb. Very unique and original, soapy barbershop theme is nicely complimented with a sexy animalic undertone. Animalic note is well done here, unlike in Gold which I find too much in your face.
Now let’s talk about performance, Amouge never fail in perfomance category, but this is a performance monster. It will easily last more than 12 hours with a very good projection. Today I wore this around 7am in the morning and I can still smell even at 10pm. Such a wonderful masculine sexy scent, wear with confidence. You can rock this baby in summer.

We are in March, but outside is cold and snow all over the place. Silver Man has no power for such weather conditions. But because I like it so much I mix it for the moment with Amouage Gold Men, and now it has a better sillage.

Smells nice, a bit more mature than the others from Amouage that I have owned or tested but pleasant nonetheless. I would wear it if gifted to me but for the price, I would prefer the amazing New Musk Man by Dame Perfumery to get my plum fix, sharing several similar notes with Silver but composed in varying amounts.
EasyRider – :
I do not know about the similarity with Ciel Man, yet, but I will have Ciel as well, but I do know that is a lot like Amoage Gold Man. Gold is more powerful because of the animalic civet and has more rose in it. Silver it has more plum. Both of them are for the collection, as Gold is for the cold weather and Silver is for the warmer days.

After five years the bottle was finished and so glad to have new room for my wardrobe, a metallic sharp concoction that got me compliments but to me went nowhere, I don’t know how Amouage was capable of conceiving such rubbish, can’t even understand why did I buy it in the first place!
JONiC – :
Smells like a classier version of Ciel man, and a bit like Irish spring
SkyVal – :
Pure elegance! This fragrance is very refined and classy. Not for boys. I believe this is in same league as Reflection, Lyric, Jubilation and Memoir. IT´s very underrated. I can´t understand why, though. Excellent fragrance!
dronn1967 – :
Maybe best Amouage in my collection. I own an old 2011 bottle and i think it’s magic. It is a classic, bureau, sly, brilliant and persistent scent that fit perfectly with your work at office. Or the oregon shore with your love, you can choose.
First among others leaf mandarin notes make it a royal plus under the shirt.
It’s a rich countryside serum with vernal mediterranean mood. It makes me remember of my chilhood in Ligury, in front of the sea.
It’s a compliment getter and a very fresh presence all seasons.
I love it because it’s easy but it’s there and it’s a warm presence; it follows you all day – endless on the clothes – like and stronger than dia.

This one is really interesting, and probably the only Amouage I can stand that I’ve tried so far, aside from Bracken Man. I just can’t do incense for long – it gets cloying to me – and if this one has any at all I really don’t notice it. It has a bright, fruity floral aspect, which sort of reminds me of Acqua Vitae Forte, but there is also this buttery-smooth richness to the blending. It could be sandalwood, but I would have guessed ambergris as well, which I notice someone else picked up on in an earlier reviews
Krihnait – :
If I have to choose 3 best fragrances of my entire life, it will be Amouage for man : Dia, Ciel, Silver… Unfortunately after this – house of Amouage is falling all way down. Down.. Down.. to the China town… And thous fragrances are being discontinued ( except perhaps Dia…) Whats wrong wit this people? Is it new management, and also they had 2 beatifful fragrances : Arcus, Cirrus – discontinued … And going back to Silver : lovely composition of plum and silver best quality hojari frankincense with floral undertones make this incensey fragrance very unusual.. Both : distinguish, serious deep meditative, and fresh sporty casual. It’s marble cold mausoleum or temple with white flowers and incense fume. You going out this mausoleum put your t-shirt trainers, there is sunny hot summer day, and you still enjoy Silver on you!

“Silver Man” is somewhat of a diversion from the well-trodden path typically taken by the Omani perfume company Amouage. This is their take on the concept of the traditional “cologne” and, as can be expected from a non-conformist firm like Amouage, the result is indeed a novel interpretation of the genre.
“Silver Man” starts off with a burst of citruses and fruit, namely bergamot, mandarin orange and plum. And although these notes linger for a while, it soon becomes obvious theirs is merely a supporting role. The true centrepiece of the composition is the white flower accord. First, there’s a generous dose of orange blossom whose effect is later intensified by the emergence of jasmine. While some readers might be wondering if the folks at Amouage have not made a major marketing blunder when it comes to the intended gender of its target customers, I assure you that despite containing several notes normally used in female-oriented scents, “Silver” can indeed be classified as a proper unisex/an unconventional masculine scent. (Actually, hesitant gentlemen may eventually be won over in the drydown during which the cologne’s chest grows a little hairier thanks to the addition of musk.)
To sum up, Amouage have done a very decent job tweaking the original idea behind the classic “eau de cologne” and managed to produce a refined, top-quality, feel-good fragrance, absolutely worthy of this reputable company. Let the summer begin!
krasnyi_86 – :
Amouage Silver (2002). Originally called Silver Cologne. An oriental take on a classical western Chypre which deviated from the Amouage style/monotony and failed as a market experiment but is nothing short of a treasure for perfume connoisseurs. The opening is a blast of soapy powdery green pungent mixed florals bouquet (the so called floral aldehydes) which comes as a nasal assault. This is where most complex pefumes fail to impress and silver too succumbs to the usage of too many ingredients. The balance could have made it a hot seller. It fails to introduce its capability in the opening. However, the ones patient enough will soon see the white light break into a colorful spectrum of transitional olfactory brilliance. The juicy fruity plum, the sharp velvet rose, the minty patchouli, the dense oakmoss and earthy vetiver and the drowning sandalwood. It flows like poetry soon joined by a blast of sweet pungent musk. The incense is the odd note and it just Ramboes into the orchestra with its raw soapy detergent lemony muscles. But, to the ones catching its powerful trail on you, it is a perfume. It is what stops many strangers in the way just to take a little sniff of the magical ripples it creates in the air. A remarkable achievement. The Amouage chamaleon which will haunt you throughout the day with its everchanging colors. I always succumb to it :-).
prubreFediara – :
Silver Man was released in 2002 and at that time, was called Silver Cologne. The reason for the change is unknown, although I have researched the subject and I came across an information different from what is disclosed: it seems that Silver Cologne was actually released in 1998 and the name change came in 2002, although no reformulation occurred at that time.
The perfumer was Evelyne Boulanger, who has already signed creations for Comme des Garcons, Armani, Givenchy, O Boticario, Jacques Bogart, among other renowned brands.
According to the company, Silver Man has notes of bergamot, mandarin, plum and orange blossom, at the top of the olfactory pyramid. Then, the heart is enriched with notes of jasmine, rose, orchid, ylang-ylang and heliotrope. At the base we have notes of amber, musk, patchouli, sandalwood and frankincense.
It is described as a woody-spicy scent with accented nuances of orange blossom and mandarin. But on my skin, it behaved as a beautiful floral-metallic, perfectly shareable and very consistent with its name.
Silver Man touches the skin rudely, without mercy and without fear of offending. The orange blossom and the mandarin confer citric acidity, which is balanced by the note of plum – beautiful, juicy and slightly sweet. The floral profile comes with the heart, lighter and strangely metalized. It is common to see fragrances with this aspect, through the use of aldehydes and notes of violets. But here, this metallic aspect comes from the rose, very pleasantly. Particularly, I love it! The ylang-ylang flower usually has sweet, exotic nuances, but that is not how it behaves in this creation. It is not here to draw attention from what really matters. And at the end of the journey, when the evolution is complete, I feel the lightness of the musk and the creaminess of the sandalwood.
Silver Man is not the most complex perfume of the house and certainly not the one that most symbolizes the Eastern route traced by the company. But it is an extremely elegant, versatile perfume, full of power and durability.
Silver Man is the next step for lovers of fragrances that follow this style, such as Chanel Platinum Égoïste, for instance. And I say more: if a mass-market company could reproduce something like that, it would be a huge sales success.

Many fragrances by Amouage are exotic but too much heavy for daily. On the other hand, Silver it’s a vibrant woody floral musk with an exotic vibe but not loud in the resinous side. Not very manly but neither feminine. In fact, this classified for men.
Another thing that I like of Silver it’s the versatility and timeless style. Then, suitable for many ocassions and seasons. If you search an Amouage polyvalent fragrance and not sharp, this it’s for you.

This is a beautifully blended floral musk, this is what i get. I have heard somewhere that this is similar to Boucheron PH and if you have that you don’t need this. I sense the similarities in the beginning, the lemony smell but as Silver begins to mature it takes a different road, one that the florals take over evolving constantly in the middle right up to the magnificent finish.
Now Boucheron PH and Silver may start off on the same road, Silver veers off on it own trail. It may be a softer scent (not a beast) with great longevity, it is an under the radar gem of a scent. Well worth the price.

For me Silver it’s a very elegant fragrance. It reminds me to classic chypre perfumes. Agree with some on the aspect of that it’s not as exotic as other creations of this house. But,it’s a very well made fragrance that oozes quality. For me offers enough versatility.
In summary, a refined and timeless fragrance. Very suitable for all occasions.

Silver Cologne Amouage is one of the best choices for a classy, sophisticated strong and powerful scent that can be used all year round. Day and night, in office or at a dinner.. both elegant and casual, easy wearable, powerful but inoffensive. A proper 100% masculine scent for all occasions.
It is clearly a woody, spicy, floral scent, bright and vivid, so refined, so well blended that you won’t pass in front of people unnoticed! Silver is a compliment receiver, both men and women like it. It opens a little citrusy and floral, vivid and fresh. As time passes, it becomes smoother, deeper, more aromatic with the flowers coming up to the surface. Just close your eyes and you’ll be transfered in a garden full of flowers, a romantic scent suitable for evenings full with passion. At the end I feel a little soapy note and something earthy-green. There is slightly a sweetness in the scent, but very discreet almost invisible.
The longevity is about 9-10 hours and the projection is heavy for the first hours. I recomend it for all year round use but especially for fall, spring and summer. The most distinguished notes I get are jasmine, orange blossom, ylang-ylang, plum, orchid, musk, rose, incense and bergamot. I can feel the other notes but they aren’t so strong.
Generally I like it, worth every cent. I thing that I’ll buy it again. I am happy and pleased from this magic juice!

Stay away from this
киндер – :
Well I’ve finally had the chance to try this, and can now understand why it’s so overlooked compared to the other Amouages.
It lacks all of the complexity and quality of the other Amouages. Even Reflection Man seems highly complex compared to this.
It’s not a terrible scent at all, if you want a decent citrus woody scent, this will deliver the goods. But at that price I expect perfect and this simply doesn’t offer that.
The opening is nicely done. A fresh floral-fruity opening with sour citrus and lots of orange blossom and plum. At this stage it’s very well crafted and smells very nice.
The heart is a big floral affair. On paper it sounds fantastic, but in real life it’s lots of jasmine and orchid. Jasmine can perfectly in fragrances, but it comes across as cheap and one-dimensional in this composition. I’m not sure what it is, but the florals really feel flat in this.
The base is a typical musky woodsy affair. There is a hint of that silver incense that Amouage are so renowned for, but it’s very subdued.
What bugs me is that on paper, Silver is highly complex. But when I smell it, it falls flat. It’s attempting to be overtly complex, and it somehow looses lots of character due to this.
Overall if you just wan’t a supercharged cologne style fragrance, then Silver is good. But to me it’s just not great. There are so many other better citrus based scents out there at half or a quarter of the price, and I’d buy any of those and pocket the rest.
However, I don’t want to be unfair either. Silver is a very good fragrance. If I found a bottle at a great price, I’d go for it. But overall I just can’t recommend it. The alternatives in this genre are so much better in my opinion.
Longevity is ok – 4-5 hours.
Rating: 5/10
lyocha71 – :
Amouage Silver Man is appropriately-named, given the metallic, musky, fresh spicy vibe that I get from it. The opening is a burst of floral and fresh spices, enhanced perhaps by the citruses I see in the notes breakdown but do not detect much of individually. Orange blossom factors in somewhat, especially at the opening, but quickly gives way to a variety of florals and a woody musk mix that doesn’t sit well with me.
As in many cases, it’s not the sharpness in the opening that is prohibitive for me but the odd fruity/musky dry down that is simply displeasing, but I realize that this is just a matter of opinion is that is not one of the crowd favorites among Amouage fragrances.
Projection is decent but longevity leaves a little bit to be desired. Sample first, for sure.

бармалей – :
Very nice fragrance, got an EDT sample from it, it lasts over 12 hours on my skin. It has a nice heart note in which I detect the plum-sweetness and a creamy vibe. It is very pleasant to the nose, nothing itchy, everything is mild, it projects very good for over 7-8 hours. It is a nice frag, I do not know how it goes in hot weather but its high sweet note could be rather cloying and stinky. It is good as an everyday scent for autumn-winter-spring. Overall rating 8/10.

Daimios – :
Silver Cologne by Amouage is absolutely heavenly. At first spray I get a blast of orange blossom and plum. As it dries down I can also detect the jasmine, ylang-ylang and rose. The full dry down is followed by a mild floral (all of which I mentioned above) with musk, patchouli and sandalwood. The longer I have it on, the better it smells. To me it is sophisticated and has lots of character.
individ13 – :
It starts with very lively tangerine note which is perceived as light.
The middle and base notes are seamlessly blended and perfectly balanced thus no note dominates. Just the plum is clearly identifiable all the time. Despite of the flowers in the middle, the scent appears not too bloomy. Then vetiver, other woods and incense give it a distinctive masculine touch.
The scent is wearable during the whole year; spring and autumn appear, however, to be the best time when you can really enjoy this harmonic fragrance.
camel – :
Amouge Silver is really well done. Creamy, full, dry, quality, classic are words that come to mind. Gets better when it dries down,
However, the topnote (orange blossom) is too much present and annoys me.
This makes it (like most Amouages) a bit of a weird fragrance. I don’t want weird, I want delicious! I ended up selling my bottle.

First impression: After the initial plum note dissipates, this classy floral note takes the center stage. It is refined, sophisticated, and well-mannered. In my mind, I immediately conjured up an image of a man in a tuxedo in a ball. I am truly surprised by how aristocratic Silver smells.
rysya833 – :
This scent was incensely incensed incense on me. It lasted on my skin for a very long time. And even longer. I enjoyed it.
timewritter – :
I started to really enjoy this fragrance based upon its very brief fruit-filled opening. Much to my dismay, the ephemeral top notes effervesce in approximately 30secs leaving behind a women’s powdery/floral perfume behind. Not to offend, but my initial impression left me remembering the smell of my grandmother’s nightly cold cream ritual. The heart of no less than 5 floral notes (jasmine, rose, orchid, ylang-ylang, and heliotrope) clearly renders the tone of this fragrance skewed towards femininity. (74)

Anybody thinks this is a lighter version of Amouage Gold for Men? Especially in its middle phase. It is quite pleasant, much milder than Gold, which makes it more wearable. On the other hand, it is a bit less distinctive, too.
ime922Negeltzex – :
I can see how this kind of scent would be good for a soap, but as a “personal fragrance” it doesn’t work for me. There isn’t enough note separation and the dynamism is rather limited. Basically it’s too tight and gentle, almost “cute.” Get some vintage Chaps and let the good times roll, one might say! Silver is more for a person who owns many horses but doesn’t want to get too close to them, ever. Now if you’ve got plenty of money and like this scent, I can certainly understand, since the quality is at least fairly good. I prefer the slightly cruder, yet more dynamic vintage greats though. I consider the drydown to be unisex.
study – :
The dry down is amazing. I don’t neven know what else to say.
choox – :
It may seem precipitous to conduct an induction based on two cases, but after smelling Amouage ARCUS and SILVER, I recognize a pattern developing before my nose. Expensive men’s colognes are always fully unisex.
SILVER offers another beautifully woven blend which to my nose is impossible to dissect. What I smell is something with a texture very much like a piece of supple silver mesh. It’s not a shiny metallic smell but rather the matte mesh scent of ambergris which has been tinged with many other scents to the point where I can only say that the sum total is a very appealing blend.
This creation boasts myriad flowers: orange blossom, heliotrope, jasmine, orchid, rose, and ylang. The florals undoubtedly impart a richness to this cologne, but they are not individually discernible, so no one would ever call this an orange blossom or a jasmine or a rose or any other specific floral composition. The flowers seem essential to the integrity of the whole, but somehow they are not at all salient. Nor, on the other hand, do the characteristically masculine woody notes stick out in any way.
SILVER is the sort of perfume, a rarity these days, which I imagine must have taken years to create. I would describe SILVER as a modern floral unisex blend. Guys who think that they cannot wear floral perfumes should give this creation a try.

This is the “king of the male floral perfume”. It is so natural, strong without being inoffensive, floral, masculine and high class that you can’t find something like this elsewhere except from Amouage. Whatever this haute perfumerie is doing, is doing it perfectly! What they want to achieve, they achieve it in a such a remarkable way! The price is high but you pay and worths every penny….It is something that only very wealthy gentlemen can wear who have strong taste of luxury, quality and life! Once you apply this on you skin, you are immediately taken “to the gardens of Al Alam palace in Muscat, walking and touching the flowers, wearing your afteroon silk dishdasha and smelling the refined aroma of a thousand blossoms….the humidity is pushing further the smell and you cant stop smelling all this paradise….and suddenly, you realize that this is given to you just by just a smell…and once you realize that, a light insence from the palace is coming out running towards you, to touch you lightly on the nose, make you think and bless god you are an arabian guy from the royal family”…..How wise this words are?
zamahas – :
Here’s another one I recently revisited. Silver strikes with an outstanding animalic/flowery/citrusy opening that immediately brings to mind of great masculine chypres from the past. Frankincense makes its appearance right away adding the classic Amouage fingerprint. I honestly don’t get all the fuss about Silver as to me it’s basically a not particularly distinctive citrus-chypre with a very moderate lasting power. You can have plenty of better options at less than half of its price if you’re looking for a fragrance of the same family. On the other hand, If you really want to go the Amouage route, there’re a lot of better compositions to choose from this house incredible offering (Dia, Gold, Honour, Memoir, Tribute, Homage, Jubilation, Epic and a couple from their Opus collection).

Stunning fragrance!
Gold is arguably the shining sun of AMOUAGE but “Silver” is the shining moon.
It is a little bit lighter than “Gold” and somehow the “little sibling” with a similar familiar face but still very different.
I find the orchid component very interesting and exotic.
The combination between all those wonderful florals: orchid, ylang-ylang, orange blossom, jasmine, rose and heliotrope makes this a powerful and romantic scent that yearns for love and passion.
Just like a full moon night does!
Highly sensual and sexual.

I have a small sample of Amouage Silver. To me, it is like Jubilation XXV lite, plus an odd chemical opening. After drydown, it has a nice rounded feel to it, but does not last long on my skin and does not seem to project. For me, not nearly worth the pricetag.
sembat73 – :
In my opinion it is unisex fragrance, I’m wearing it for few hours now and I love it. Especially the base, it’s comforting and beautiful. I can’t stop sniffing. For my nose and on my skin, it comes a bit as a chypre fragrance. I’ll test my sample on my husband, too, interesting how Silver will develop on a male skin.
It is really a great fragrance.

To Kterhark,
This is not a cologne anymore…It’s an eau de parfum like all other Amouage.
Bright-classy-everyday-office perfume.
It’s classy enough to wear it at night.
Citrus opening with floral and REALLY fresh & sour blend. Middle notes are flowery with a sour orange heart note.
Background of sweet-gentle incense. I can’t detect the patchouly and barely the vetiver.
For a GREAT blend there is my note:
5/5
