Double Attack

Crafting a Strategic Scent: Double Attack Mind Games

This perfume is inspired by the multifaceted nature of chocolate. The perfume aims to capture the bittersweet and woody qualities of this beloved treat. Perfumer Christelle Laprade has balanced the sweetness of chocolate with notes like orange bitters, spicy spices, and smooth wood, reminiscent of biting into cocoa nibs. These notes have a certain woody quality that complements the sweet creaminess of chocolate.The name of the fragrance reflects the strategic concept of "double attack" in chess. This move targets multiple aspects simultaneously, just like the complex and layered composition of the perfume.

 

Olfactory Notes

Double Attack by Mind Games unfolds in a calculated yet indulgent manner, much like a strategic chess move. The opening is bold and stimulating, with orange bitters, pimento, and pink pepper adding a spicy-sweet vibrancy that mimics the thrill of the game’s first move. As the fragrance settles, an intriguing heart of agave flower and cinnamon emerges, creating a refined yet slightly exotic warmth. The dry down reveals its true mastery—dark chocolate melds with creamy vanilla and bourbon vetiver, evoking the richness of a well-earned victory. Sandalwood smooths the edges, leaving behind a lingering, velvety elegance on the skin.
