Romance Silver

I'm shocked that no one has compared this to Ralph Lauren's Purple Label or Bond No. 9's Bleecker Street. I've owned both of the aforementioned scents and received a pretty hefty sample of Romance Silver today. The first few seconds (3-5 at the most) of the application yield a very distinctive vodka note that completely vanishes and reveals a composition that smells nearly identical to Purple Label. Suffice it to say that Romance Silver is still with us albeit in a different bottle. In Romance Silver, the violet is a bit less pronounced while the woody notes linger distinctly at the forefront. Any other differences between the two are marginal or nonexistent to my nose. Like a great and beloved public official leaving office and passing the torch to another, Romance Silver is a beautiful scent no doubt, but Purple Label does the job just the same. Scent: 9/10 Longevity: 6/10 Sillage: 5/10

Was bought this by an ex girlfriend around 10 years ago.. and it was nice and fresh. Recently wondered if it was still available as I hadn't seen it around for years. Found out it's now discontinued, but managed to find some new, old stock on eBay. Bought a 50ml (which comes in a surprisingly small box).. Despite being in a new shrink wrapped box, I sprayed and there is little to no sillage.. small remnants of that awesome fragrance.. but I'd literally have to use 25ml just for me to smell it without putting my nose into my neck. I don't remember it being this faint, so I'm guessing it's the case of being old units. Such a shame, the smell brings back a lot of memories, and really is amazing. Gone forever now though.

To mirror what others have been saying about this, it is underrated. It was the first ever proper fragrance I ever bought and I have very fond memories of it. I think I was naive after getting this that if you spent a little money on a smell they would all be rather decent like this. I bought it because I went into a shop asked the girl what her favourite EDT was at the moment and she really liked it and I tried it. There are very fragrances I've had since where I've had a girlfriend who just wanted to constantly snuggle their nose into my neck when we were out and about just so they could smell it. I would recommend this for anyone to at least try and see if they like it.

This is heaven in a bottle and the scent of my youth. I have over 400 fragrances in my collection but this will always have a special place for me. I have yet to smell a fragrance similar to this so if your bottle runs out and you can't find a replacement on eBay and/or unwilling to pay the steep price, you're pretty much SOL. I have Bleeker St. Bond No. 9. People are delusional if they think that smells anything like this. Ralph Lauren has to realize that this is one of the best juices they've came up with and should bring this back, even if it's for a limited release. If there's a petition for it, I will be the first to sign it.

Overall unique. Niche style with its own DNA. Great to wear. A great gentlemen fragrance. Not necessarily a scent used by larger crowds. Complimented many times. A pity it doesn't#t exist - might be potentially a hint towards Clone houses to get this DNA back. Performance: 7-9 hours Sillage: Within 6ft noticeable For whom: Gentlemen >40 My background: I only write reviews about scents I have worn already (until the bottle is finished) or are in current use. I'm a Gentlemen - middle aged - predominantly in an executive office environment wearing suits and representing with many official gatherings.

This scent needs to come back in a big way. I’m not saying you should throw down whatever ppl are asking for it on eBay but I think the fragrance world needs this one to come back. How good could it be you ask? Imagine the smokiness of Aventus, take out all the sweetness from the pineapple and replace it with a bright, tart, refreshing lemon (I know that the listed citrus note is tangerine but my nose only picks up lemon). Yes. It is THAT good. This, Romance and Purple Label were ahead of their time and they all need to come back!

They need to bring this back. Nothing, absolutely nothing, smells like it. I've tried several "inspired" dupes to no avail. Ralph! Hey, Ralph! Are you listening! Make more of this! (FWIW, this doesn't smell anything like Bentley Black. To me, anyway.) (@Svensei06 Wanted to upvote you, but I hate YouTube "influencers" since they don't really care about the product more than "likes" and "views.")

I'll Be Missing You "Every step I take, every move I make Every single day, every time I pray I'll be missing you Thinkin' of the day, when you went away What a life to take, what a bond to break I'll be missing you" Note: To the guy below saying this smells like Rochas Moustache edp, for the love of fragrance, NO. Nope. Just NO. RIP RL RS

Es una delicia, encontré una botella hace 3 años en menos de $70dls una salida alcohólica y un cítrico delicado, conforme se seca sale la madera y el almizcle que termina dandole su naturaleza sensual, ideal para una cita apasionada es limpia y sexy. Es simplemente de los aromas que siempre quisiera tener en mi colección.

This was my favorite cologne when I was in college. My dad gave me this it came with an aftershave and a pouch. I remember using the after-shave as a splash cologne because I really liked the smell. I also remember smelling a strong "alcohol" scent probably because of the vodka, and this had a metallic scent on my skin.

Romance Silver is a very underrated fragrance from the Ralph Lauren house. I got a 1.7 oz as a blind buy a few yrs from Walgreens and i got my 40 bucks worth. Very sophisticated and elegant yet modern at the same time. Perfect for when u wanna impress that lady you wanna get it on with

I owned a bottle of this way back when. When I found it was discontinued I was a bit disappointed that is until recently I came across Eau De Memo. When the sales associate sprayed it on the sample card it definitely reminded me of RRS. Needless to say I added it to my collection.

Loved LOVED this fragrance back in the day. Was one of the few repeat purchases I have made. I wish I could smell it now to see what my thoughts are now...if it smells as good as the memories I have of it...or if my now more distinguished nose would find it lacking.

It smells great,kindda like Gucci Gucci,the smell of violet is nice,very gentle,attractive,soft,love it so much! I'm pretty sure that I will buy this one again. but it seems that it doesnt last long on my skin,however it lasts very long on test paper.pity.

Does anyone know anything similar to this? My bottle ran out 5 years ago but I'd love to get something in this vein. I don't think either Bleacker Street or MBI smell too much like it but in open to suggestions.

Blind buy by my mum when she went to NYC. Amazing fragrance. Managed to get through 4 or 5 100ml bottles before being discontinued. Really, really wish this was still around.

Romance Silver is much better then the original but i only have a lil left .

I LOVE cedar and this just drives me crazy...in a good way!!! :P

10/10, I will get another one for sure!

Sadly gone butt never forgotten
