Success by Trump


After we had got over an attack of silly schoolgirl humour caused by using the words 'trump' and 'smell' in the same sentence, we focussed on the job in hand which was to review the men's perfume called Success which was launched in 2011 by Donald Trump, American business man.

Since we put this in the category of celebrity perfume and were pleasantly surprised to find that, contrary to what we were prepared for, this men's scent is actually very pleasant.  It is clean, inoffensive, subtle and generally a good aroma.

It isn't too strong and takes its place as a background smell. It doesn't last too long so no matter how many applications, your man is never going to out do you on the aroma front.

Whilst it contains this week's aroma of the week (redcurrant) it doesn't strike me as a fruity aroma. Success also contains coriander and ginger, but I wouldn't describe it as a spicy perfume either.  It contains vetiver and birch wood but it isn't a woody perfume.  These aromas are blended further with geranium, bamboo and tonka making it more of a - well its difficult to place it in any category, so let's just call it a fresh aromatic surprisingly pleasant subtle perfume!

An all round good egg.
