Is Armaf Sillage a dupe of Creed Silver Mountain Water?

Sillage has insane projection, and once it macerates it smells 1:1 to SMW.

Sillage is the best smw clone

A Reddit comment, Sep 2025, 7 points

Heard that Sillage is a clone of an older version of SMW that had better performance and projection and has since been reformulated into what we now have, which is weaker than its clone.

A Reddit comment, Oct 2021, 6 points

Sillage comes 1:1 after maturation of 2 months.

A Reddit comment, Feb 2026, 6 points

They're also clones of Creed, Sillage is Silver Mountain Water and Milestone is Millesime Imperial

A Reddit comment, Oct 2022, 6 points

With that said Sillage from Armaf is an excellent SMW clone, which also needed a couple weeks to mature.

A Reddit comment, Aug 2025, 6 points

Armaf Sillage.

A Reddit comment, Feb 2023, 5 points

I asked for a sample, and this time it was almost indistinguishable from Sillage, there's no way someone just smelling this cologne on you could tell the difference.

A Reddit comment, Jun 2024, 5 points

Sillage smells exactly like my 2014 bottle of SMW.

A Reddit comment, Oct 2024, 5 points

I've never smelled SMW before, but smelled Sillage and another SMW clone before and they all roughly smell the same more or less.

A Reddit comment, Jun 2024, 5 points

I know it's a clone of creed silver mountain water but honestly the performance is better than creed's.

A Reddit comment, Apr 2026, 5 points

Apparently the best smw clone right now is Sillage by Armaf.

Armaf Sillage is a great clone of Silver Mountain Water - sweet, but fresh.

A Reddit comment, Oct 2021, 3 points

It solves Creed’s performance issues but it’s not as smooth or well blended.

A Reddit comment, Dec 2025, 3 points

Me personally I prefer sillage by armaf

A Reddit comment, Feb 2025, 3 points

I have tried the OG, sillage and dossier musky green tea, sillage is really close to the OG, it is a bit more metallic and less refined than og, but projects and stays longer Honestly I only found the difference when sprayed side by side

A Reddit comment, Jun 2025, 3 points

So, I can't help myself but doubt you when you claim that Sillage is nothing like SMW.

A Reddit comment, May 2024, 3 points

Sillage is a clone of Creed Silver Mountain Water, which is a really herbal, tea type scent that has a very fresh and classy feel to it.

A Reddit comment, May 2023, 3 points

If you are talking about Creed as a whole, then Armaf's Sillage is the best clone for Creed Silver Mountain Water.

A Reddit comment, Jul 2023, 3 points

I have a couple of other clones of SMW that I can't wear anymore because I'm tired of that scent.

A Reddit comment, Apr 2025, 3 points

Armaf Clue de Nuit Sillage ✨ wonderful inspiration of creed silver mountain water.

A Reddit comment, Apr 2025, 3 points

Instantly recognised it as the same scent.

A Reddit comment, May 2025, 3 points

I have an OG batch of Sillage and I don't think it smells all that close to SMW.

A Reddit comment, Dec 2024, 3 points

I find Sillage opens more citric than SMW, but after a few minutes it becomes almost indistinguishable.

A Reddit comment, Jan 2025, 3 points

Sillage can definitely be a daily driver as its a dupe of creed silver mountain water.

A Reddit comment, Mar 2025, 3 points

I got a sample of SMW and they are darn near 1:1.

A Reddit comment, Jul 2026, 3 points

It's genuinely the best Silver Mountain Water clone and I have both Sillage and Afnan's clone.

A Reddit comment, Jul 2025, 3 points

I have heard Supremacy in Heaven is smoother and fresher, actually not a straight up SMW clone like Sillage which I am interested in, will surely let you know how it goes, cheers!

A Reddit comment, Jul 2023, 2 points

It's really close, but Creeds blend is more refined and smooth.

A Reddit comment, Feb 2025, 2 points

My experience with the two is very similar to yours.

A Reddit comment, Aug 2025, 2 points

Sillage and al wisam day are close

A Reddit comment, Jan 2024, 2 points

Silver Mountain Water (which is the fragrance sillage is inspired by) feels like a better match for the weater

A Reddit comment, Apr 2024, 2 points

Sillage is my go to SMW dupe and I'd probably not change that.

A Reddit comment, Apr 2022, 2 points

It’s a dead ringer for smw.

A Reddit comment, Jul 2024, 2 points

Honestly I find sillage to be way to harsh and missing the best bits of SMW.

A Reddit post, Jan 2025, 2 points

It’s still a little too sweet and synthetically musky if you smell directly where you sprayed, but the scent trail you leave behind is practically identical between the two.

A Reddit comment, Jul 2025, 2 points

Sillage is a clone of Creeds Silver Mountain Water so it doesn’t compare to CDNIM or MB Explorer since they are Aventus clones.

A Reddit comment, Jan 2024, 2 points

The opener is harsh but dry down is 1:1 with Creed SMW.

A Reddit comment, Mar 2025, 2 points

Armaf CDNI Milestone & Sillage are exact clones of Creeds Millisime Imperial & Silver Mountain Water.

Sillage is the best SMW clone.

Sillage is creed silver mountain water clone.

A Reddit comment, Jun 2024, 2 points

Looking for Creed Silver Mountain Water clones that lean more into the green tea and blackcurrant notes than Armaf Sillage.

A Reddit post, Jan 2025, 2 points

Sillage and SMW are VERY close, and I don't say that about many clones.

Sillage is really close to SMW.

A Reddit comment, Jul 2025, 2 points

I do think that Sillage from Armaf is a much better clone of Silver Mountain Water although even then it trades longevity for the light airiness that makes SMW work.

Sillage smells like SMW + a ton more of that metallic (synthetic?) note.

I’m not necessarily looking for other Silver Mountain Water clones.

Silver Mountain Water which Sillage is a clone of is also something I didn’t enjoy the smell of.

A different take on Silver Mountain Water than Sillage.

A Reddit comment, May 2025, 1 point

Another suggestion for everyday would be Clud De Nuit Sillage, it's a great take on Creed Silver Mountain Water, very woodsy-fresh and clean, and has pretty good projection/longevity.

A Reddit comment, Sep 2025, 1 point

It has the same DNA, it's not 100% copy.

A Reddit comment, Nov 2024, 1 point

I know that many people are loving Sillage because its supposedly a better quality than of Silver Mountain Water, "smells like SMW than what SMW currently is", but Millisime Imperial is just a better DNA overall for me.

A Reddit comment, May 2023, 1 point

The Sillage fragrance which is a clone of SMW is amazing.

Sillage (Silver Mountain Water clone) works well in the summer for daily wear, going to the gym, etc

A Reddit comment, Jun 2023, 1 point

Sillage isn’t a 1:1 up close, but in the air it’s nearly indistinguishable.

A Reddit comment, Feb 2025, 1 point

Sillage is the best clone to SMW as well and mine does not have an ink/metallic smell to it.

A Reddit comment, Aug 2023, 1 point

I consider it the most accurate clone I've tried.

A Reddit comment, Apr 2025, 1 point

Armaf’s sillage smells closer to 2013 creed smw than creeds own smw.

Sillage is a great performing SMW clone that lasts longer than the original.

A Reddit comment, Dec 2023, 1 point

If you're very familiar with SMW, you could probably tell the difference, but to my nose, they're basically the same except sillage lasts longer

Sillage is a really really really close clone to Silver Mountain Water and it's a scent that works very well on me.

A Reddit comment, Jun 2024, 1 point

I have an SMW decant and its spot on in my opinion.

A Reddit comment, Feb 2026, 1 point

Yes it smells almost exactly like SMW and anyone who says it doesn’t is a hater.

A Reddit comment, Feb 2026, 1 point

Sillage comes close to SMW in the dry down but in a synthetic and linear way.

A Reddit comment, Aug 2024, 1 point

Dude I have to thank you - I'd seen that Sillage at my local place a few times, had no idea it was a Silver Mountain Water dupe - my eyes just always went to that silly design - well I'll be damned if this isn't a pretty damn close match and it blows me away that I'm walkin around smelling like this

A Reddit comment, Mar 2026, 1 point

I personally didn't find it any better than their previous SMW clone - Derby Club House Blanche which is actually now higher rated than Sillage on Fragrantica.

A Reddit comment, Sep 2024, 1 point

For summer I always get club di nuit sillage it’s a dupe of creed silver mountain water I get a lot compliments every time I wear it especially in the gym

I have Sillage and travel atomizer of SMW, and honestly to me they smell pretty much identical to my nose.

Loved the scent but wanted to see if there are some other similar scents that are either stronger dupes of Silver Mountain Water or something very similar to the scent profile.

Sillage is the closest clone to SMW throughout the whole projection.

Armaf Sillage is a pretty quality dupe of SMW in my opinion and if you’re interested.👍🏽

A Reddit comment, Aug 2025, 1 point

While the dry down on Sillage comes close to SMW, Sillage has never, ever lost that screechy and synthetic opening, even after having bought it years ago.

My wife has Creed Silver Mountain Water and I feel like Sillage is a dead ringer for it.
