Sir Winston by Bortnikoff pays homage to British culture and Churchill, promising an afternoon of tea, pastries, and a fine cigar. The tea note is the most realistic I’ve tried, intelligently blended with tuberose. Then comes dry, subtle tobacco, with tea dregs and neroli dominating the blend. Oud, vanilla, and ambergris serve only as a base. It’s a pleasant, well-composed scent, but too proper and perhaps a bit boring; in the end, it’s just a quiet afternoon of tea.

I bought a decant and my analysis is from memory: no tea, no tobacco, no vanilla. Only the neroli flower dominates from start to finish, a realistic bouquet that drowns everything out. My nose isn’t a sommelier’s, so I’m guessing from memory: it smells like an old-fashioned floral fragrance, the kind my grandmother used. It’s more feminine than masculine; I don’t see it as unisex.

If my favorite Bortnikoff scents are Musk Khabib, Sayat Nova, or any of his Ouds, let me tell you this isn’t as special as I hoped from Dimitri. Sweetened, musky flowers that smell delicious… but too easy. If you like Dimitri’s colognes (Amber, Moss, Vesna…) you’ll surely like this. Those looking for extreme, special aromas that he usually achieves won’t find them here. Obvious quality, great smell, versatile, and very unisex, even though some of the names in his collection are more feminine.

Given that my favorite Bortnikoff scents can be Musk Khabib, Sayat Nova, any of his Ouds, or even Sans Fleurs, I’ll tell you it doesn’t seem as special to me as I hoped from Dimitri. Sweetened, musky flowers that smell deliciously… deliciously easy. Those who like Dimitri’s colognes (Amber, Moss, Vesna…) will surely like this. Those who appreciate the extreme, special aromas he seeks and that aren’t found so easily won’t find them here. Obvious quality, great smell, versatile, very unisex, and perhaps despite the names of the more feminine ones in his collection.

I fell over laughing when I smelled this masterpiece, but I got up to tell you my opinion on Sir Winston: it opens with tea, then settles into white flowers and musk, that wonderful musk from Mr. Dimitri. It’s a fragrance that turns into a tattoo to stay with you forever, and I want and love for it to stay with me forever. It’s another genius; Bortnikoff has a gift for making us travel olfactorily to a flower-filled valley full of peace. Relax, because once the people around you smell it, they won’t let you be at peace. If you can, get it with your eyes closed, hands tied, one-legged… however you want, you won’t go wrong.
