Mind Games French Defense Fragrance Review
Mind Games French Defense, a fragrance that exudes sophistication and confidence through its expertly blended notes. This distinctive scent experience begins with a top note of dark cherry that is both rich and incredibly realistic. The cherry is not just sweet but perfectly balanced to create a playful yet refined introduction.

French Defense has a refined floral heart, with geranium and rose adding depth without overpowering the cherry notes. As it dries down, the scent becomes warmer and smoother with an ambery, woody base. The result is a well-balanced fragrance that lingers softly on the skin, feeling both comforting and elegant.

Mind Games French Defense is remarkably versatile, adapting effortlessly to various occasions. The dark cherry note stands out but remains well-integrated with the other elements, creating a scent that’s both sophisticated and approachable. With remarkable longevity and projection, French Defense endures for approximately eight hours, with subtle hints persisting even longer. This captivating unisex fragrance distinguishes itself with its rich, caramelized cherry note and a base of amber and woods, making it a standout choice among cherry fragrances.

Nose behind this fragrance is Perfumer Christelle Laprade who describes Mind Games French Defense in these words “French Defense leads with a mouthwatering boldness of dark liquor-saturated cherries; a hypnoticred fruity note that hooks the senses from the start. Threads of soft mimosa and geranium Madagascar woven through the heart transition the fragrance into a skin-warming caress of golden amber and woods.”

Let’s take a moment to admire the craftsmanship behind the French Defense bottle. Its heavy glass base feels luxurious, and the trophy-shaped cap elegantly nods to the game of chess. This distinctive detail enhances the bottle’s visual charm and reflects the sophistication of the fragrance, making it a striking addition to any collection.
