“Do you like it?”. On the occasion of his first historic visit to the White House, Syrian leader Ahmed al-Sharaa received a bottle of men’s perfume “Victory 45-47” as a gift from Donald Trump. In a video relaunched by Al Arabiya, the American president is seen spraying the fragrance directly on al-Sharaa, assuring him that it is “the best men’s fragrance”.
“There is also one for women, for your wife – added Trump, then asked with a smile – How many do you have?”. “One,” answered the Syrian leader. At that point Trump, turning to the camera, laughingly commented: “You never know with these guys”, and patted him on the arm.

In the video, al-Sharaa asks Trump how many wives he has. “Right now,” responded the tycoon. The Syrian leader later explained that he sent Trump a series of gifts: “I sent him various ancient objects, such as the first alphabet in history, the first postage stamp, the first musical note, and the first customs tariff. They were all replicas of Syrian archaeological artifacts.”
Meanwhile, Trump gave al-Sharaa a perfume packaged in gold packaging reminiscent of his own silhouette, sold to celebrate his second mandate and dedicated, according to the official souvenir site Maga, to “patriots who never give up, like President Trump”.
