How it unfolds
-
Hazelnut and cacao
The first impression is edible: a toasted-nut sweetness from the hazelnut, with cacao underneath adding a dry, slightly bitter, chocolatey depth. Neither note is sugary at this stage, which keeps the opening warm and a little serious rather than childish.
-
Jasmine sambac over cedar
In the heart a white flower enters. Jasmine sambac is rich and creamy, and cedar gives it a dry, pencil-like wood to stand on, so the flower reads as velvety rather than sweet. This is where the scent moves from something edible towards something closer to perfume.
-
Caramel on moss
The base is caramel, ambroxan and moss. Caramel brings a soft, burnt-sugar sweetness, ambroxan a smooth, mineral warmth, and moss a cool, earthy shade that stops the sweetness from becoming heavy. It ends rounded, dark and comforting.
Wearing it
When, who and why
How to wear it
Royale is a cosy scent for cool evenings: autumn and winter, dinners, time indoors. One or two sprays on the chest or neck are usually enough at this concentration. The sweetness comes across best in cool weather, when it can sit close without feeling heavy.
Who it is for
For people who like gourmand scents with some darkness in them: nutty, chocolatey and caramel-sweet, balanced by cedar and moss. It suits anyone who finds vanilla-led sweet perfumes too soft. Unisex, and best for evenings and the colder months.
Why choose Jo Milano Paris Game of Spades Royale
Royale is the white one in Game of Spades, the playing-card line with a spade on every bottle. Its pyramid reads like a dessert, yet cedar and moss keep it from turning plainly sweet. The accords the brand lists, caramel, nutty, cacao, woody and musky, say the same.

The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all excellent. I’m very satisfied. 👍💯👍
Very good quality profume, it last long and it has a good price for its incredible aroma and mixes of fruit and wood smell
A cozy, slightly sensual vanilla that feels like warm night air by the sea. Easy to love if you enjoy gourmand perfumes with a soft smoky edge.
This perfume is really well blended, I just removed a star because I personnaly don't like the top note (citronella)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Good cologne, love the citrus and ginger scent making it a playful combo while the tea base makes it a bit more mature. Great for the gym
FragranceGems is again really quick with their releases. I hope this one smells better than Too Damn Good. Already rating a 5 star because of previous experiences!!
Already pre-order. As always, FragranceGems is the first with good releases. Looking forward to my bottle!
The cap of the bottle came with a small part of it broken off and the glass pieces were in the box
