Victorious

First I was surprised how many voted to dislike this scent here, because it is pleasant, not controversial and with decent performance... But then I recalled that it was created for daughter of Uzbekistan's dictator and arguably the only person in the country hated more than her father. Politics aside, despite of being dominated by clover, amber, and freesia with hint of vanilla and coconut, it is masculine scent well suitable for warmer time of year. It lasts 12-16 hours, but both projection and sillage are borderline soft/moderate. I chose it for trip with my co-worker who suffers from asthma, and she begged me to sell it to her because it is one of very few men perfumes she could easily tolerate and actually even likes. Which I did.

The charming man in the commercial is Turkish actor Halit Ergenc - he stars in the contemporary soap opera "Binbir Gece" (="Thousand and one nights") and plays Suleiman I. the Magnificent in the period drama series "Muhtesem Yuzyil" (="Magnificent Century"). I liked both very much. Unlike the series, the perfume is not available in my country. But the list of fragrance notes sounds very smart&manly!
