Supremacy In Heaven

There's something in this fragrance I can't quite explain. It's this incredible quality that most of my favorite fragrances have. It's kind of reminiscent of explaining why one light blue is my favorite, and different from others when it's very a slight tonal change. It's just got this very mystical quality for lack of a better term. I can't really say this is quite similar to Silver Mountain Water, because it isn't. I've had this bottle for years and I just love it. I'm sure there's been some change to it over time, but it's always been an odd duck. It's got this sweet heavy tea scent. Almost like a mix between a really grassy cup and an AriZona green tea. There's a sweetness overlaying it. It's got a very rainy day vibe to it. Not quite like the lost in the woods trudging through wet leaves that Encre Noire gives me (Which I also love.) Its just, different. You may smell it and find none of these qualities, but to me it's just right. Have you ever loved a song or piece of art, and went to show other people and they don't quite connect with it? Not that they dislike it, but they just don't share the bond you do. That's this fragrance. I've shown it to several people, and while they quite like it, they don't absolutely love it the way I do. That's okay with me. This is one I love to spray on my forearm and smell throughout the day. It just makes me happy. There's a very slight Japanese Citronella scent in the background too. It's very smooth, and quite nice. The bottle is also pretty, but we don't wear the bottle. If I had to link this to a song I'd link it to スポーツマン (Sportsman) by Haruomi Hosono. It's a song I absolutely love, that I have listened to endlessly for years and never tire of. It's one that I've made my wife resent due to how much I subject it to her. At this point she probably can't hear a synth or drum beat without flashbacks to long drives, and hearing it from the other side of the house. It's a song most people I play it around kind of like, or generally like. They don't really love it though. They don't connect with it the same way I do. Not that there's a thing wrong with that. A fitted suit isn't meant to be worn by everyone. I feel the vibe of the song also matches the aura of this fragrance. A rainy day, a hole in my rain jacket, wet socks, but I'm sitting somewhere warm now and I've got some tea to warm me up. You may not find the qualities I find in this fragrance, but I hope you find the fragrance that fits you. One to lift you above the waves and warm your soul up.

@ttickles just below me is SPOT ON concerning the initial performance/smell of Supremecy In Heaven, buuuuut once this baby "Maturates?" Whoa Nelly! It smells so, SO beautiful! That wierd Inky/Metallic accord which is so prominent in the og as well in Armaf's Sillage, while still present is toned-WAAAY-down in Supremecy In Heaven and just adds a bit if depth and nuance to the dna. I had used this scent a few times when Id first recieved it and while it had decent to slightly above average performance, it was nothing to write home about, but NOW?? This thing lasts and lasts and projects so beautifully! After letting it Maturate for around 4 -5 months, people at my job have "Sniffed me out" and have followed their noses to my scent so they could ask, neigh... DEMAND that I give up the goods (The name of this scent) lol. And thats HOURS after I think its long-gone! I kinda/sorta think this scent is kinda "Boring" tbh, but I cant deny the insane amount of co.pliments I recieve seemingly every time I wear Supremecy in Heaven. Honestly since experiencing Supremecy in Heaven during it's peak performance/scent, I just dont see the point in paying MULTIPLE-HUNDREDS of dollars for the original Creed's Silver Mountain Water. I havent smelled SMW in years, but Im sure it has poor performance (According to ALL the reviews) and may not even be as "Mass Appealing" as S in Heaven. Within the "Cheapie-Clone/Freshie/Mass Appealing genre", this thing deserves a 9.5 outta 10 for sure! So if you want to get noticed and need a confidence-boost, get yourself a nice shower cleaning your skin, moisturize that neck/arms, and do a good 5 spritzes and youll be set for the entire day! (After Maturation ofcours) the Maturation process is so very much worth the wait! Thank to whomever took the time to read my thoughts on this amazing fragrance! CHEERS!

Nose Note #795 One of my all-time favourites - Silver Mountain Water. If you don't compare them side by side this doesn't instantly remind you of SMW big time. But if you go side by side, well... Like almost two different fragrances. This for some reason to me smells like a SMW with a tit bit of Aventus Absolu added, you know, this very specific sweet bergamot that Aventus Absolu has, it's sort of here, and it's not in the OG. OG has noticeable black currant and tea notes. The black currant is kind of here, but it's different, it's merging with the bergamot. The metallic aspect is here, but a little bit subdued. Unfortunately, this is not my favourite interpretation of SMW at all. But it is served in the best bottle. I don't know why, but in here I'm getting slight toilet bowl vibes - the lemon scent sticker on the toilet. Nothing like that in any other dupes, but it's only in the opening. It's still great as a dupe, and it's one of the longer lasting ones. DEFINATELY longer lasting than the OG. OG feels so much more natural and that's probably why it's kind of an average performer. If you want 100% SMW this won't really do it. I'm afraid none of the clones I've tried do. I have or had: - Armaf Sillage (has many notes that are not in the OG, i.e. it's more of a twist) - Al Rehab Silver (the strongest and most metallic) - Lattafa Maharjan (has an orange note that's not in the OG) - Paris Corner Opulentia Inverno (just crappy) - Fragrance World Night Club Silver (more of a dupe of Armaf Sillage than SMW) I'm afraid we are still yet to see a better dupe of SMW. Again, if you don't compare them side by side then actually all of the six fragrances smell just like SMW. 9.5/10, still it's amazing in every way and the DNA is my wife's #1 favourite on me.

I've been letting this sit and mature for a couple months now, and I've worn it throughout to be able to truly tell the difference over time. After that wait, it has become all I wanted it to be and more! The harshness on the opening that was initially present before maturing is entirely gone, with only a whisper of the cold, metallic/inky note remaining (which I don't mind in moderation). It opens with a juicy citrus which bridges into blackcurrant without a noticeable shift--one blends right into the other. Eventually the tea note starts to come through, followed by the sandalwood which to me adds a bit of spice and warmth to an otherwise largely cold fragrance. The drydown is very typical of industry standard synthetic musks, with a whisper of blackcurrant/sandalwood remaining and not much citrus or tea. It lasts about 6 hours with moderate projection--great workout and summer outdoors scent with unique character. I paid $22 for this, and I could not be more satisfied. I've never smelled SMW so I can't make a comparison, but I don't need to! I would absolutely blind buy this again in isolation after having let it mature. The key is to take time with it, at first I certainly didn't like it nearly as much as I do now. It is a phenomenal masculine spring/summer scent for the price and will likely be a staple in my collection.

Got this from the discovery pack of supremacy line. On first smell was really amazed by the clean scent. It is really a smooth heaven like scent, just so clean, nothing harsh and nothing extreme or in the face. I tested it against original SMW and in the dry down they are really alike. Only thing to bother is that the projection is not that great. I ordered the bottle to make this my scent for the coming summer. And I know I will need to spray a lot to get projection of it. Was almost about to buy CDN sillage instead but as I don't like synthetic dupes I choose this one because it is smooth and round. And just clean. This is also not a type of scent that is needing to fill a room or choke out. But a little better projection would be like able. Anyways, looking forward to spray this on every day for the coming months to come. Just want to smell clean and fresh. The notes are 1 on 1 the same as SMW. So this clearly should be the closest to the original. Overall: I just like round and organic smelling dupes more. This is round, smooth organic and creamy. The projection is not great and longevity also not, but the scent profile is just very clean and smooth. It is very close to SMW and does it's thing. Afnan in general makes great quality inspired by versions of high end niche parfums. Just love it.

Afnan Suprecy in Heaven is truley "Heavenly"!! I really like how Afnan tweeked the original Silver Mountain Water dna so that the inky/metallic note is really toned down, yet Afnan did NOT sacrifice any of that beautiful clean/freshness that dna is known for. I had gotten a 2 ml tester of (CDN Sillage) and although that one does project more and has better performance all around, I just couldnt get past that wierd "inky funk" it delivers when you smell it close up, and it doesn't even have to be "that close up really. So while I have to give Armaf's Sillage credit for getting closer to Creeds dna and for having better performance, Afnan's Supremecy in Heaven is simply more enjoyable over all. I actually purchased my bottle about 3/4 weeks ago, and the performance has actually improved due to maceration. I now get 6 to 8 hours depending on how much I spray on myslef, plus the good thing is that this scent is pretty unoffensive or cloying even if you "over do it" a tad, which does NOT mean you can go crazy with the trigger as its NO SLOUCH when it comes to the potency! Supremecy in Heaven is a timeless classic scent that I can't emagine will ever become "dated" or "old fashioned". I give Supremecy in Heaven a 7.5 outta 10. Me gusta mucho!😁

Ive just only read the two reviews benewth me an I completely AGREE! Out of my al.ost 150 bottle collect (I need help) this Afnan Supremecy in Heaven is one of my top 3 MOST complimented fragrances by men and women! Its beastly wo suffocating me or others around me, and my goodnes does tbis PROJECT! I also truley preffer Supremecy i. Heaven over Armaf's Sillage like TEN TIMES OVER! Sillage has this almost "Wet dirty hand full of coins" thing going and it just would go away and Sillage lasts.. just couldnt handle it! Supremecy in Heaven still has a very slight inkyness which adds to instead of distracting from the the other beautiful notes! Id keep making the mistake of Over Spraying thinking that since its a "Freshy" I would have to just so I could get longevity, but I was WRONG. I end up feeling like I needed to wash some off because I would get comments at work like "So you're the one wearing that cologne! I couls smell you all over the store, it smells AMAZING!" But even with that compliment, I felt obnoxious. Moral is, just spray regularly (maybe 4 to 5 spritzez bc I was doing like 8 and it was too much). Anyways, this is a MUST in anyones collection, definately unisex leaning masculine). A 9 outta 10!

I’ve tried many SMW clones and this is my favourite by a long shot. Although none were able to be 1:1 clones, this one came quite close. Afnan did an amazing job at replicating its essence. I’d say it’s 85% similar to Creed’s. It is also more versatile than the original as it has an even fresher and brighter touch to it. It is incredibly well blended and smells very high quality. A safe blind buy if you like the OG DNA. The performance isn’t anything to write home about. It is a scent that I love smelling on myself and I think that is why I become nose blind to it after two hours. However, others can still smell it on me for more than six hours after applying it, while others state that it is more of a skin scent around the 2 hour mark... However, I can smell it on clothes days after as well, so maybe it’s just my skin chemistry. It is much better than the popular Club de Nuit Sillage, which I couldn’t stand as it was a synthetic, harsh, and offensive mess. Definitely avoid that one. If you want the best clone of Creed Silver Mountain Water, definitely go for Supremacy in Heaven. I absolutely love this fragrance and would definitely recommend it over other clones!

This stuff is great. Very clean, crisp, and energizing. Very fruity at application and dries down to a nice woody scent. Love this stuff. I underestimated the performance of it. It's surprisingly long lasting and projects strongly. Here's a good example. I was doing yard work on a Saturday afternoon in 85 degree heat. A hard working man needs to eat so I ordered some food at a local restraunt about 15 minutes away. I cleaned up a little bit, sprayed some Supremacy In Heaven (one spray on each shoulder and on the back of both wrists) and drove 15 minutes at highway speed with the windows down. I figured the wind whipping around in the car would've carried alot of the scent off of me which I was okay with. But upon getting there and ringing up my food the cash register lady said "Dude, you smell amazing." The younger gal to her side nodded in approval to her coworkers statement also acknowledging she approved of my cologne. To which I replied thank you with a big smile. "What are you wearing?" She asked. I wrote it on a piece of paper for her. BUY THIS STUFF, the ladies absolutely approve!

I haven’t been this obsessed with a fragrance since I started wearing ADG, which was the only scent I wore for a long time. Recently, I’ve gotten more into fragrances and started collecting a lot of dupes I thought I’d like. Fast forward to about 60 bottles, and I finally stumbled upon Supremacy in Heaven. Now I’m questioning whether buying the rest of my collection was even worth it. Like ADG, I can see this becoming my everyday signature scent for life. I’ve never smelled SMW, but I’m definitely curious now. I know this is a close dupe, not an exact match, and it’s supposed to be more fruity and less metallic. That being said, I need to get my hands on the real thing because I think I’ve found my forever fragrance. If it’s anything like this, I’d gladly drop the $$$. Until then, this is a fantastic scent, and every morning I find myself reaching for it while the rest of my collection just sits there. I might need to start selling off some of my bottles—or maybe I’ll just give them away for Christmas!

There are fragrances that are 5 times this price that don't compete with this in my opinion. I own this and have used over half my bottle. This doesn't smell synthetic to me at all. And the inky metallic profile of SMW is not here at all just pleasant blackcurrant and green tea and little musk for depth but not much. Do not listen to nay sayers get your own nose it. You will see what I'm talking about. This is amazing and to my nose its more pleasant than SMW. This stuff is great and smell it for yourself. I swear when I read these comments I feel like competing companies are out to get each other and it happens all the time on here. Opposition comments are out to get other companies - it's humourous and misleading to read them all. For ppl reading this - always click on the profile of REALLY negative comments to find out who they are. if you're like me you read fragrantica before buying a sample to see if it's worth spending the money. Find out who the nay sayers are before making a conclusion.

I have not smelled SMW, the only other inspiration I've smelled is Ajmal's silver shade. By comparison Silver Shade is more metallic/inky, and more citrus forward than In Heaven's stronger fruit opening. I definitely have gotten better projection out of In Heaven but similar longevity, which in both cases is very good for a fresher fragrance. It's a bit of a curious thing having an ink note in a fragrance for hot weather. I would have imagined ink to be sickly and nauseating but it's not. An aside I wish I could smell more fragrances with strong interesting notes that aren't typically associated with the weather their best suited. Like natural smoke from a campfire or barbecue is fine in summer, but I've never seen it in the scent profile of a summer fragrance. Supremacy In Heaven to me is interesting and inoffensive(if not oversprayed). I think it is a decently mass appealing fragrance and is a safe blind buy.

Supremacy In Heaven by Afnan continues the house’s streak of high-quality, great-smelling fragrances in the Supremacy line. True to its name and the sky-blue look of the bottle, the scent feels airy and almost “heavenly”. There’s an unmistakable Creed Silver Mountain Water DNA, yet it confidently goes its own way, adding a slightly different character that keeps it from being just a straight clone. Importantly, it’s not as sharply metallic as the original or most other dupes, which makes it smoother and easier to wear. Fresh, elegant and uplifting, it’s a fragrance that easily stands out in a summer collection.

Totalmente un perfume muy veraniego, es compra a ciegas 99.9% segura, por ello es que siempre se recomienda probarlo antes. Hablando unicamente del aroma, sale una salida dominada por los cítricos, dulce, acidito y bastante frutal y fresco. al pasado de 10-15 minutos, se torna una faseta verde y del té (el té se siente desde el inicio solo que se opaca por los cítricos áciditos y refrescantes) y en el secado total, se siente una parte cítrica y dulce, sin ser ácida, frutal, verde y una vibra muy relajada y sumamente limpia y muy masculino. en cuestión de cumplidos, es muy pero que muy bueno en este aspecto, muy fácil de gustar y una proyección brutal durante las primeras 3 horas. duración moderada-larga (5-8 horas) depende totalmente de las atomizaciones. calificación y resumen : por el precio, la facilidad de que esta fragancia guste, la duración y proyección. un 10/10

For me it's the best of the supremacy line. Very fresh and citrusy opening, with a rich creamy backbone, very pleasant and much different from your average freshie. Smells like a fresh cold bed sheet on a nice summer evening. Don't let the opinions about projection and longevity fool you, the people are just going nose blind. After 2h of applying 5 sprays my coworkers told me that the whole room smells like fragrance, so apply wisely unless you want a call from the HR. Smoth, creamy and fresh, anyway i've tried some armaf dupes and they just hurt my nose with the chemicals, this one doesn't, not at all. I've bought the discovery set and read the reviews on all the flankers, i thought this one i'll like the least and oh boy I bought a bottle after one day. Simply great!

Comparing this to CDN Sillage, I prefer this version of clone. The mid notes in CDN Sillage are too rose floral for me, giving me a restroom cleaner or deodorizer association. This has a crisper, more herbaceous heart and a metallic tang to it, although admittedly I get more of the inkiness in this than from CDN Sillage in the style of the Creed original. Also, this has a classy Afnan bottle design, and I prefer it to the CDN Sillage cubistic design. Performance is decent and it pushes the first hour or two, but it won't go the whole day without a refresh, so carry a decant. Layering suggestion: try it with Lattafa Bade'e al Oud Amethyst - the rose adds a floral element that compliments the cool metallic notes.

I’ll put it to you like this... It’s really, really good. The performance is wonderful during the hottest sunny days. I wore it out and got a compliment from a stranger that must have only come within 30 feet of me. Let that sit for a second. It’s borderline beast-mode in projection for the first few hours, even in 93°F weather. I’ve had the aroma hit my nose off my arm after 8 hours and it was just as clear as it was at hour 3. Spraying this one on your clothes is also a bold strategy. It’s inexpensive and unisex enough to blind-buy for sure. 9/10 for a hot weather cheapie. P.S. - I pick up the slightest tinge of Aventus in this frangrance. Maybe it’s just me, but something in there reminds me of it.

This fragrance is sharp, but not too sharp. There’s a sour fruitiness, citrus, a green element (from the tea note), which dries down to a pleasant musk. It’s fresh, masculine, classic, has a strong personality, and is energising. There is no sweetness. I haven’t tried CDN Sillage or Silver Mountain Water, but I really like this and recommend it wholeheartedly. It particular suits a warm humid or foggy spring day. It has a slight 90’s vibe, but is absolutely not outdated. In fact, it’s quite classy for a fresh scent and, not to mention, quite strong and long-lasting. Very masculine. Edit: Dec 26th, 2023. This has grown on me more and more. I love it now. I enjoy wearing this outside especially.

I love the fragrance, it has a very crisp aldehydic smell that projects in the opening couple that with the burst of citrus you get and id say you've good a decent juice that's a 7/10 for me on the composition, and blend but oh my when it comes to projection and silage its a 1/10. you basically have to keep respraying all day but besides that its such a fantastically made fragrance that you wouldn't mind spraying it on yourself all day, plus its around $30cad so I wouldn't feel guilty spraying this as much as you'd like. edit: I dont know why but in the dry down I get this smell that reminds me of eggs for some reason, but I never get to the dry down often cause im always reapplying anyways.

This is a surprisingly faithful recreation of SMW, but that's not what I'm here to talk about. What I'm interested in is the inky accord. I've scoured clone after clone in search of one that has that beautiful green tea and black currant heart which I find to be the most interesting component of SMW. So many clones of Silver Mountain Water omit this in some way, and that's a crying shame in my opinion. If that intoxicating smell of ink is something that you also crave, I'm here to tell you Afnan has fully embraced it. And if that's something you're not feeling? Better pick up another dupe, because this one does not shy away from it.
