I Won The Dua Brand, unveiled in 2021, is classified as a unisex fragrance, belonging to the east and floral families. Inspiration and execution — all of it is Mahsam Raza. The fragrance is presented as perfume extract.
Produced in the United States, and you can feel it in every note. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
The scent is clearly present near you, but it does not fill the entire space
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The composition of I Won is built as a layered story, where layers reveal themselves smoothly and sequentially. The creative approach of The Dua Brand is evident in details that define the fragrance identity. Every decision feels deliberate, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Perfume extract supports the depth and body this composition needs.
From the group perspective the structure relies on Ambery, Floral, Wood and Gourmet. The framework further includes Musk and Whiteflower. Within olfactory families the fragrance belongs to East and Floral.
When the pyramid is blended into one block the opening appears as one connected movement with a inspiring floral mood: Ambergris, Iris, Neroli, Oud, Rose, Sandalwood and Vanilla. Here 7 notes act as one voice, creating the effect of a living bouquet that reads as cohesive from the start.
The deeper layers are perceived as a gradual shift without abrupt breaks, which keeps the fragrance coherent.
The stylistic positioning is unisex, which clarifies the composition character.
Overall I Won reads as a cohesive composition — the start forms character, the middle layer carries the identity, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the fragrances best experienced through real development.
