Winners Trophy Silver

* 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.

To me, this seems like Lataffas attempt at a sporty fragrence. This is an original fragrence from Lataffa and is not trying to clone anything. Initial spray is a very sharp and pericing orange rind and frankincense. On the initial spray the oarnge is more bitter than juicy, but it does become sweeter as time goes on. It caught me off guard and was MUCH stronger than I was anticipating. The frankincense is not smokey, but more along the lines of pure frankincense oil which has subtle elements of pine and lemon. Soon after, it settles down and reveals this smooth and creamy vanilla that perfectly balances the resinous and citrus top notes. After a little while the vanilla is joined by a clean lavender note that gives this a fresh summertime feel. I do pick up an ever so slight spiciness from the cedar but it doesn't seem to be a main player. The far drydown is a pretty typical amboxan/wood scent. Mass pleasing. Orange vanilla lavender sherbert with resinous qualities. Somehow both fresh and creamy at the same time. More suited for spring and summer but could be used year round as a signature scent. This instantly became a favorite in my collection, but it is unique so someone looking for a cookie cutter plain old blue fragrence may not like it. UPDATE: @Vapor Trail I went to Ulta and tested Born In Roma Intense to compare. Same style but not at all the same. Winners trophy has a much sharper orange opening and dries down to be significantly creamier with lots more vanilla. Winners trophy also has much more pronounced resinous qualities. In my opinion Winners Trophy is by far the superior fragrence, but everyone has different tastes. I actually pretty strongly disliked BIRI, while I love Winners Trophy... So that shows how different they are.

My favourite from the pride line so far, very disctinct smell and I absolutely love it. I do not think this is comparable to Valentino BiR Coral Fantasy and definitely not a clone. This one is heavier and has a faint "incensy" touch to it owning to that olibanum note, whereas Valentino is fresher and more fruity. In any case, you might call it an inspired twist to that DNA. This is insanely versatile as it has the citrusy freshness at top-mid and that olibanum stays for the entire life of the scent so it does maintain a faint citrusy vibe to it. At the same time, the smokey-incensy undertouch of that olibanum and the woods with vanilla give it a nice heavy base. Performance is great, just shy of beast mode, lasts for 7-9 hours on skin and projects hard for the initial 2-3 hours. Has the tendency to stick to clothes for a long long time, I legit smelt it faintly on a washed shirt. Not a fan of that presentation, very weird and honestly quite tacky with that half globe as a cap. The quality by itself is decent as with all Lattafas. Overall, this is a great find, grew on me aggressively and will be a frontliner in my collection, it is signature scent worthy for sure.

Amazing scent- clone of Valentino - bottle/presentation is very tacky - comes in a big black box - there is a large plastic dome where the fragrance is standing in - beside the ridiculous presentation, the fragrance is very nice, lasts also a long time and projection is moderate

It's been a while since I reached for this and I forgot how much I enjoy it. The spice and lavender are popping off! Such a cool weather BANGER!! but also very versatile in it's own right, already 2 compliments in the office setting. (9/10)

I like the perfume. A fresh-spicy fragrance with good durability and strength. Fair price. I think the fragrance is universal. However, the bottle and packaging are terrible. Overall rating 7/10. If I rate only the juice, then 8.5/10

Forget this as a clone, this perfume is one of the best vanilla and lavender lattafa frags that I have. It can be worn all year round and last at least 8hours It is slept on, I want to try more from the pride collection

This is definitely closer to Coral Fantasy. Tested it at Sephora with a decant of this on the other hand. 85-90% similar to my nose. Not going to pay that much for the Valentino since this is so close.

a Cheff kiss to me solid 9,5/10

Nose Note #780 It's vaguely similar to multiple things - the Azzaro Wanted DNA, Stronger With You DNA, but with something like an apple note. Lattafa Jasoor is very similar. But altogether it didn't connect with me. Something about it is annoying me just like Jasoor is. I'd be hard pressed to say what the notes are. Doesn't smell like lavender, orange, olibanum or vanilla to me. Just something sweet, slightly herbal (i.e. slightly earthy, this is makes it more manly), and something that creates the image of freshness (probably lavender). If you really have no other choices, because this was the cheapest offer - then it will definately do. It's an alright perfume as it is. I can actually see how most people would like this. I has this aura of the average and simple mens perfume. 6.5/10, not bad, but I'm not going to be wearing this

For me this is in the Invictus, Explorer Platinum and Y neighbourhood. It's a very good quality freshie that lasts a little more than 12 hours. I am quite sure there is clary sage, violet and ambroxan in Winners Trophy Silver, despite the listed note pyramid. Lavender, vetiver and cedarwood certainly, and a touch of vanilla in the late dry-down during several days of my wearing it. Yet again Lattafa Perfumes goes to the top tier where presentation is concerned. The bottle and the dome that it comes in will look fantastic in your fragrance wardrobe.

I really love the drydown of this scent. Performance is impressive... But i really can't stand the opening. Mix of mandrin with olibanum gives very strong and piercing metallic vibe. If opening wouldn't be this strong, i would definitely have that in my collection. Smells really darn good after 1,5-2hours. This one is somewhere in Armani Code Profumo style, but not a clone by any means. I don't know Valentino BIR intense to confirm. I own 20ml sample do I'll give it few more tries, but after 3 globals i passed

i compared this side by side with a sample of born in roma intense and born in roma coral fantasy. it doesnt smell at all like coral fantasy but I do get a whiff of born in roma intense. it's not an exact clone of born in roma intense but you will be reminded of the scent profile. when i first sniffed the born in roma intense, i thought immediately of pride winner's trophy silver

Wow, this scent is a real winner! It's warm and inviting with a nice spicy kick. The orange and olibanum in the opening are really bright and uplifting, then it settles into a lovely lavender and vanilla heart. The cedarwood and vetiver base give it a classy, masculine touch that balances out the sweetness. Great for both day and night wear!

I have Winners Trophy Silver, and I also have Jasoor. I think Winners Trophy is nice on it's own being aromatic and very nice to smell - it actually smells very good. Performance is mediocre and sillage is mediocre, but the smell is so good. This smells like BIR Intense. Jasoor smells like BIR Coral Fantasy. Have fun!

Dont believe in what others are saying that it smells nothing like Valentino. It does have the DNA of Born in Roma Intense but the Trophy is less sweet compared to BiRI. It's not an identical clone, but it does remind you of BiRI. Sort of like an inspired or clone with a twist.

Smells like deodorant. I can't smell the Valentino corelation however it's not bad. 6+ hours longevity and projects well. Not worth the price IMO however it is nice. 7/10

I really love this scent profile, but what it's giving to me to leave a 3 star review instead of a 5 star is the quality of the ingredients mixed and the mixing on it's own. It really does has the profile/ADN of Valentino BIR Coral Fantasy and BIR Intense, heck... this perfume was even launched earlier than those Valentino's as a thematic FIFA Qatar 2022 perfume... But it's surprising how it was better mixed and with better ingredients by its competitor in just 1 year. The SMELL of the synthetic false (fanta like) Orange with a strong and a bit cheap ambar takes the first hour of it, and for the people around you its good as long as they don't come too close, because then they would really get to know the synthetic parts of this. In the meantime you're just begging for the dry down to arrive, and when it does, its beautiful, a vanilla, lavender and soft amber smell that makes you feel it was worth it, until it's time to apply it once more. Edit: After macerating for a month and a half, the synthetic smell tune down a notch, but it's still a 3/5 in my book. Maybe worth it for the young.

I have this and at first sniff it smells harsh and chemical-y. I will update after maceration EDIT: ok definitively doesn’t hold a candle to Roma Coral. I have a decant and the clone side by side.... The clone smells very cheap and off putting. Don’t buy into the hype

#586 in my "Tour de Fragrance" This smells nothing like any Valentino scent and I have them all. This scent really has no character whatever. Don't waste your money.

Extremely earthy and dirty, one of the worst ive purchased.

Just received Winners Trophy Silver today. I initially bought it cuz of the suggestion it resembles Valentino Uomo Born in Roma. I have a 15ml travel size of Valentino Uomo Born in Roma Coral Fantasy and I love it. But I'm not about to pay $100+ for full presentation. So I figured as certian houses tend to do, they're fragrances all share the DNA of that house brand. So I thought maybe Valentino Uomo Born in Roma smells a bit like Valentino Uomo Born in Roma Coral Fantasy hence making the jump that winners Trophy Silver may smell like Coral Fantasy. Well wouldn't u know I was right. Not exactly the same but similar enuf to make me very happy having only spent $30 instead of $100+ for a scent profile I love. Can't comment on the projection and longevity cuz I haven't given it a full wear. But if you like Valentino Uomo Born in Roma Coral Fantasy and are looking for something similar this will not disappoint you.

All I read is Clone, Clone of Valentino coral fantasy and Valentino born in Roma intense, Guys did you realize Winner trophy Silver, was launched before those Valentino Flanks?, did you? Or you really think a Clone comes first and the Original comes months later?, If Valentino's Flank Smelled similar to Winner Trophy Silver to you, then good. But those flanks smell similar to this one, not the opposite, We keep confusing people with those Clone affirmations. People come here to learn and enjoy.

I never felt single time also that it's similar to Born in Roma 😀 This is a fresh spicy scent, I never felt at all any similarities with BORN IN ROMA. It's a beautiful fragrance itself with good character of Olibanum which my nose never got in any fresh fragrance. My nose felt quite herbal green nuances here after 30 mins n opening was not much impressive but magic starts after 30 mins.

I just blind bought it. I don't know if I just need to let it sit and macerate, but it smells horrible. and absolutely NOT a clone of any valentino frags. I will give an update in a few weeks. As of the first day, 2/10 Update after nearly 2 months: It still smells really horrible, like spicy bubble gum.

I bought this because it is supposed to be a clone or similar to Valentino Uomo Born In Roma Coral Fantasy. I don't own that cologne so I can't speak on it, but I can say this smells absolutely delicious and amazing. I am glad I bought it even though I simply bought it as a blind buy.

I really didn’t get much vanilla or lavender from this, it started very citrus aquatic with an earthy undertone, and then quickly became an earthy tobacco scent, it definitely has the powa

Overly synthetic olibanum that overrides every other note. I hate the scent even after the dry down. no, this one is going straight in the drawer im glad i ordered a sample of 2ml.

Some people said this was a clone of Born in Roma. Excuse you what? This was launched way before the Born in Roma came out. So who clones who?

Can anyone confirm or deny the similarity to Born in Roma Intense?

THIS IS STRAIGHT ASS. Please don’t blind buy it. It’s vile
