Soft florals open it, rose, wild violet and Kona coffee form the centre, and myrrh, incense, panettone and ebony wood close it. Mind Games says it begins gently and gives way to strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Black Currant, Rose Water, Pivoine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Rose Centofolia Vitessence, Kona Coffee, Wild Violet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Myrrh, Incense, Panettone, Ebony Wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA soft floral door\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlack currant, rose water and pivoine open the perfume gently. The currant is dark and slightly tart, rose water is light and transparent, and pivoine adds a petal-soft, airy sweetness. Nothing is forced yet; the start is a quiet invitation, and the strength arrives later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRose, violet, coffee\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRose Centofolia Vitessence, Kona coffee and wild violet form the heart. The rose is fuller than in the opening, violet adds a cool, powdery edge, and the coffee brings the gourmand twist the brand describes, both creamy and dark-roasted. The mix is dense but not loud.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eResin and dark wood\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe base turns dark and resinous: myrrh and incense give a smoky, balsamic depth, panettone adds a soft, buttery bakery sweetness, and ebony wood holds it all on a dry, dark floor. As an extrait it stays close and warm, and the sweetness fades slowly into resin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAutumn into winter\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrand Master is happiest in autumn and winter, in the evening or on special occasions where a rich amber with a floral side feels right. One or two sprays are enough. Spray the chest rather than the wrists if you want the rose and coffee to open slowly under your clothes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho will like it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeople who enjoy rose when something pushes against it, such as coffee, resin and incense. It is unisex, and it suits those who want gourmand touches without a sweet-shop perfume. The soft opening also keeps it welcoming if amber is new to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy choose Mind Games Grand Master\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe idea is clear: gentleness first, then strength. The notes follow it, from rose water and pivoine to myrrh and ebony. Using both sides of coffee is a specific choice by the perfumer, and it gives the heart a texture that is soft and dark at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs there a strong coffee note in Grand Master?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKona coffee sits in the heart, together with rose and wild violet. The perfumer wanted both its creamy and its dark-roasted sides, so it adds depth rather than a café effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhich season suits it best?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAutumn and winter, when the base of amber, myrrh and incense feels at home.
