Mind Games - Blockade

MIND GAMES links the complex artistry best embodied by the strategy and brilliance of Chess with the innovative and hypnotic effects of perfumery. Blockade reimagines our perception of the enemy. Removing our inner thoughts of doubt and indecision, Blockade puts our weakness to work for our advancement. A vivacious freshness takes hold as mango, spicy pepper, and tomato leaf permeate what was once impenetrable. Smooth, calculated, and dynamic, the alluring scents of Lavender, Patchouli and Oud make it a fragrance that inspires action and growth, in a sophisticated and timeless offering.

Featured notes
Learn more about the top, middle, and bottom notes in this fragrance.
Lavender is one of the oldest, and most common perfume ingredients in the world. It’s gentlemanly, scrubbed, soapy/powdery feel is a staple of men’s colognes. Lavender has a slightly spicy edge as well, which makes it a universally blendable note in perfume. It can add a clean edge to aromatic or animalic scents, and deepen zesty citrus notes with its subtle, herbal facets. But most of all, lavender is associated with fresh, clean, pure, old-school elegance. It’s well-heeled sophistication is appropriate for any time of year, and it makes an excellent choice for either sex to wear casually or formally.

    A nice everyday scent
    Nice, even, everyday scent. I’m using it for winter but it’s probably more suited for fall nights, if you like the smell reminds me of a cozy book nook.

    Great Scent but...
    Loved the scent but it was weak and had to reapply. I ran out before the end of the month.

    Interesting (in a good way)
    I really enjoy the tomato leaf fragrance! Very interesting! The mango also stand out a lot and the other scents help balance everything out. Not a huge fan of mango, so Im looking for other scents with tomato leaf in them.
