* Intriguing and unusual fragrance
* Hybrid citrus and woody fragrance that reveals layers like a jawbreaker
* Good blend of citrus, vanilla, floral, herbal, wood and incense aromas
* Very distinct opening, middle and drydown stages of citrus, lavender and vanilla, and wood and incense, respectively
* Acts like three completely different layered fragrances put together
* Better than Born in Roma Intense thanks to the citrus note
* Beautiful domed presentation
* Unisex
* Good for both older and younger users
* Strong performer
* Fair price
* Strong wood and incense drydown may throw off those who were actually looking for a citrus fragrance
* May come off like soap to some noses
* Cannot see volume in bottle
* Dome is fragile
* May lean too male for some female users
Lattafa's Winners Trophy Silver is a highly intriguing and unusual fragrance. It's got very distinctive opening, mid and drydown stages that are all completely different from one another. The opening blast is all fresh citrus with a touch of vanilla and fresh herbs. This cedes to a strong mid full of fresh lavender and sweet vanilla. Then that gives way to a strong woody and incense drydown. By the time it reaches the drydown, you might even forget this had a citrus forward opening, the stages are that distinctly different. This acts as if you had layered three different fragrances yourself, except that all the work has been done for you.
This is purported to be a clone of Valentino's Born In Roma Intense which is chronologically impossible as Valentino's fragrance came out a year after. If anything, it would be the reverse and the lack of a citrus note indicates that was not Valentino's intention. Regardless, I live near a Sephora and have sampled BIR Intense and Winners Trophy Silver is IMHO by far the better fragrance. That beautiful citrus note is what puts it over the competition.
This is unisex, but the strong wood and incense notes in the drydown may throw off some users in general and female users in particular who are caught off guard by it. The strong lavender mid combined with the citrus may come off smelling like soap to some users as well. Citrus only fragrance lovers would be much better served by Lattafa's Pisa.
The presentation is just beautiful, with a stylish curved black glass and metal bottle with a silver metallic cap that upon closer inspection is actually a globe of the world and not a disco ball. :) This comes in a clear plastic display dome. The same presentation was previous used for Lattafa's Eternal Oud but appears to be discontinued for that fragrance. Fortunately, they have kept it for their Winners Trophy line.
This is good for all users of all ages in all occasions. Performance is strong and the price is good. Highly recommended as long as you're aware of the woody incense finish separating this from most citrus fragrances on the market.
