PowderyWhat does Silver Shadow Pure Blend smell like?
It opens with orange, cinnamon and cedar, a sweet and spicy start. In the heart, patchouli, clove and saffron come forward and the scent turns deeper and drier. The base of benzoin, amber and oakmoss settles it onto a soft, powdery footing, with a slightly synthetic sheen running through the accords.
Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the small number of ratings means that should be read with caution. It is made for men, and its sweet spice sits more comfortably in cooler weather. Those looking for a close profile could try Prada Luna Rossa Black and Davidoff Silver Shadow (Eau de Toilette).
