sotd Bentley Silverlake

I've been curious to try some of the more popular cheaper frags, and

hooked me up with a couple of them. Silverlake is supposedly inspired by Acqua di Gio Essenza, which I have never smelled. Most of the cheapies that I try need to stand on their own two feet, and be FBW in their own right. At this point, I'm not drawn to dupes as a substitute for the originals that inspired them, but I am drawn to value. Hence, the curiosity.

It goes on spicy, aromatic, aquatic with florals & citrus. The tone is bright and upbeat, with a little complexity. This smells great, with moderate to mild projection. After 45 min it smooths and melds into a beautiful, not too sweet woody floral with light aquatic undertones. Sillage is mild from 45 min and winds down to a persistent skin scent after about 5 hrs. Heat and humidity would keep this one pumping though. Great for work or play, and it feels higher quality than it's pricetag.
