Afnan Supremacy Silver makes headlines in KSA

Afnan Supremacy Silver has become a go-to Creed Aventus alternative in Saudi Arabia in 2025, offering a smoky-pineapple profile for a fraction of designer prices. In this hands-on review I test availability, local pricing, longevity, projection, and who should consider buying the 100ml EDP. Read on to find out whether Afnan Supremacy Silver is the best value Aventus-style choice for your wardrobe.

First Impressions & Unboxing

The 100ml bottle arrives in a matte-silver box with clear batch coding and a simple logo — functional, not flashy. Unboxing reveals a solid glass bottle with a minimalist atomizer and a secure cap. The first spray delivers a bright, smoky pineapple opening that feels instantly familiar if you know Aventus-family fragrances; the fruit is present but edged with a clean birch-smoke note. On first sniff I found it bold but wearable — a good evening statement in Riyadh’s dry climate. According to Afnan’s product page, the official note pyramid lists apple and bergamot on top, pineapple and jasmine mid, and musk, birch and ambergris in the base, which matches the juice I sampled.

Should you buy Afnan Supremacy Silver?

• Buy it if: You want an Aventus-like profile under SAR 200 and you value good projection for evenings or events.
• Skip it if: You need “office-friendly” subtlety all day or you insist on exact Creed parity.
  Recommended user types: young professionals hunting compliments on a budget; fragrance enthusiasts building a “lean Aventus wardrobe”; shoppers in Saudi cities who prefer fast local delivery.

Hands-On Performance (Personal Testing)

Over a week of real-world tests — office, outdoor evening, and a weekend dinner — I observed consistent behavior: on skin the fragrance reliably lasted about 4–6 hours; on clothing it lasted ~6–8 hours. Projection was moderate-to-strong for the first 90 minutes, then softened to a skin-scent band for several hours. In humid Jeddah conditions the fruit can feel a touch sweeter and projection drops, while in Riyadh’s dry air the smoky facets hold up better. In my testing, two sprays to the chest and one to each wrist was enough for evening wear; heavier application increased longevity but pushed projection into “loud” territory.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Excellent value for the scent profile (SAR 138–172 for 100ml).
• Distinctive smoky-pineapple opening that many find compliment-getting.
• Widely available across KSA retailers and online platforms.

Cons

• Longevity and projection vary by batch; some newer bottles show 4–6 hours on skin.
• Opening can be polarizing (bonfire-like smoke) in very humid climates.
• Not an exact Creed match — purists may notice differences.

Comparison With Alternatives

• Armaf Club de Nuit Intense Man — stronger projection and more affordable in some markets, but a different fruity-smoky balance that many find harsher.
• Afnan Supremacy Not Only Intense — richer and mossier; better all-day wear but less fruit-forward than Supremacy Silver.

Price & Value for Money

• Budget: SAR 100–138 — possible in sales or smaller retailers.
• Mid-range: SAR 138–172 — typical KSA pricing (Noon, Afnan site, Amazon.sa).
• Premium: SAR 180+ — bundled sets or international sellers with shipping.

Common Customer Feedback

Across Saudi buyers and international threads, trends are consistent: many users praise the scent’s “pound-for-pound” performance and compliment its potential. One verified Amazon reviewer summed it up as a “refreshing masculine vibe.” Community threads note older batches often lasted 8+ hours, while some recent batches show reduced longevity (4–6 hours). Fragrantica user ratings from KSA average around 4.1/5 for scent quality, with mixed notes on projection.

My Final Verdict

Afnan Supremacy Silver is the best budget-friendly Aventus-family option for evening wear in Saudi Arabia in 2025 — provided you accept some batch variance in longevity. For buyers seeking a smoky, pineapple-led signature without Creed prices, it’s an easy recommendation. Shoppers who need subtle all-day office performance should test first.
