From your scent profile
Donald Trump Success is a discontinued men's fragrance that opens with red currant, juniper and coriander and dries down to vetiver, tonka bean and birch wood.
Skunky's take: Floral accords up front; keep it from the bees.
How does it perform?
From 32 community ratings, all out of 10.
A short but sweet date; a travel size in your bag is a good idea.
Whispers to close friends, never shouts at a crowd.
Plain bottle, the real show is inside.
The price is not for everyone, so try before you commit.

OrientalWhat does Success smell like?
Voters find its longevity and sillage weak, though the sample is small. It is presented as a masculine perfume.
The opening is fruity and spicy, with ginger, bamboo leaf and geranium in the heart. Sweet, woody and floral accords run through it, with a synthetic edge. Musk rounds off the base. Roberto Cavalli Black (Eau de Toilette) and Montblanc Individuel (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
