This review is for the vintage version, not the reformulated Sublime version. I loved, loved, LOVED this when it first came out. And I love it still. I adore green aldehydic fragrances with...

I just came across a forgotten spray bottle of this in the back of a dresser drawer. I used to wear this in the early 80's (or maybe even late 70's) as one of my signature scents. I was really...

Jacomo Silences was a bit of a dubious one for me, as I had never come across the brand before and had no means of testing it out in person. But from the reviews I gained the impression that it...

I am going to review here the vintage version. I have a bottle of what most likely was within the first year or two of production of silences. This is the EDT. This is really a unique scent. ...

First off, I love No. 19. While Silences starts out like 19, it quickly fades to a sickly sweet non-descript drydown (at least on me) that was really annoying. I don't do sweet or flowery, so...

Beautiful green with the same icy galbanum blast you get in Chanel 19. If however, you prefer Chanel edp you will miss the rose and the staying power of 19. Mind you Silences is a whole lot...

The original formulation of "Jacomo Silences" is actually discontinued. Keep in mind that Silences was launced 1978 - that was 34 years ago - so through the years there have been several different...

I adore Silences. It is absolutely Green, makes me sit up straight yet daydream at the same time. 'Strict, neat and clean' are part of the Green category to me, but Silences contains sky-high...

Reminds me a lot of Chanel #19, a great lower cost alternative. Try if you like Chanel #19.

Silences begins with a sharp green blast that might put me off if it lasted more than five minutes. It quickly settles down to a lovely, calm floral that never raises it voice and would be quite...

Silences starts off with a blast, but it dries down soft, clean, powdery and slightly resinous, with that somewhat spicy vegetal odor of a broken green stem. I don't often reach for it because...

My answer to Bandit. Silences has a great animalic quality but lacks the horse hide and leather thang Bandit does on my skin. Sexy and green, Silences is an under appreciated chypre triumph

Oh I like them green but not THAT green! Like the previous reviewer, Boisdejasmin's eloquent review seduced me into buying this till the galbanum reared its ferny head. Too intensely green for my...

This was given to me in a RAOK by a lovely fragrance board member. I had wanted to try Silences for years as I love Chanel #19 and I'd heard they were similar. I did a side by side test of the two...

Silences is one of those great compositions which can be had for a couple ten-spots, yet smells like you shelled out some serious dough at the Chanel counter. Jacomo's Silences is a green chypre...
