<b>WHAT IT IS</b><br><br>Introducing MIND GAMES, a fragrance debut that transports one to the crucial moments of competition in a test of character, skill, and intellect. MIND GAMES links the complex artistry best embodied by the strategy and brilliance of Chess with the innovative and hypnotic effects of perfumery. The result is an inaugural fragrance line that delivers a scent wardrobe of extreme olfactive signatures. J&#8217;adoube begins with a whisper of warning. An intriguing sensation engulfs us in an opening of pomegranate, rouge groseille, and mandarin, as the fragrance surges forward in a wave of tantalizing sweetness. J&#8217;adoube develops and expands into an intense experience, realizing the excitement found in the anticipation of a new love, a raw and singular beginning. Its evolution towards a bold and deep base of leather, patchouli, and ambrostar, brings focus to chaos, grounding the scent in a disciplined declaration of intent while remaining wholly spontaneous and free. J&#8217;adoube represents this juxtaposition of abandon and control moving between notes seamlessly, in a fragrance that is equally dramatic as compelling. Made in USA.<br><br><b>FROM THE PERFUMER</b><br><br>&#147;In chess, players say 'j'adoube' if they want to adjust the position of a piece, but not move it. I wanted to nod the history of this term with the incorporation of pomegranate, a juicy, precise fruity note that adds an element of excitement. The bold black suede accord gives the fragrance strength and a firm foundation, very much like the rook&#8217;s role in the game.&#148; - Nathalie Benareau, Perfume<br><br><b>TOP NOTES</b><ul><li>Rouge groseille di</li><li>Mandarin oil Madagascar</li></ul><br><b>MIDDLE NOTES</b><ul><li>Bright red pomegranate</li><li>Damascene rose</li></ul><br><b>BASE NOTES</b><ul><li>Ambrostar</li><li>Benzoin vintage leather</li><li>Patchouli oil</li><li>Sulawesi</li></ul><br><b>INGREDIENTS</b><br><br>ALCOHOL DENAT. , FRAGRANCE (PARFUM ) , WATER (AQUA/EAU), ETHYLHEXYL METHOXYCINNAMATE, ETHYLHEXYL SALICYLATE, BUTYL METHOXYDIBENZOYLMETHANE, BHT, LIMONENE, LINALOOL, CITRONELLOL, GERANIOL, CITRAL, COUMARIN. 220027
