Salted caramel, Italian lemon and dark plum open it, amber coffee and crème de cassis carry the middle, and Boya oud, sandalwood and tonka bean ground it. Carlos Viñals composed it for the Perfumer Extraordinaire collection from Mind Games.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Salted Caramel, Italian Lemon, Dark Plum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Amber Coffee, Crème de Cassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Boya Oud, Sandalwood, Tonka Bean\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSweet and sharp\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe top is juicy and edible: dark plum gives a deep, jammy fruit, salted caramel a rounded sweetness with a faint savoury edge, and Italian lemon a bright line of acidity that stops the whole thing from clogging. It reads as a dessert kept in check by acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCoffee and cassis\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the middle, amber coffee adds a dark, roasted warmth and crème de cassis a deep, liqueur-like berry sweetness. Together they push the gourmand side further into evening territory: this is coffee and berry liqueur, nothing light, and the plum from the top is still faintly present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSmoke and wood\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe base is Boya oud, sandalwood and tonka bean. Oud and amber resin give the brand's smoky, earthy foundation, sandalwood smooths it, and tonka adds a honeyed warmth that points back to the caramel. As an extrait it sits dense on the skin and fades slowly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCold evenings\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMentor is an evening perfume for autumn and winter: dinners, long conversations, a coat and a scarf. Two sprays are plenty, on the chest or wrists; caramel and plum show at once, the oud only after a while. In a warm room it thickens quickly, so apply with a lighter hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA good match for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnyone who enjoys gourmand perfumes but wants smoke and earth under the sweetness. It is unisex, and it suits people who like edible notes such as caramel and coffee without wanting the result to feel like a pastry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy choose Mind Games Mentor\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt belongs to the brand's Perfumer Extraordinaire collection and is built on contrast rather than a single sweet note: juicy fruit against smoky oud, salt against honeyed tonka. One perfumer, Carlos Viñals, kept those contrasts in balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs Mentor a sweet perfume?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, but with counterweights: salted caramel and plum are sweet, while Italian lemon, coffee and a smoky Boya oud base keep it from becoming sugary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhich collection does Mentor belong to?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMentor is part of the Perfumer Extraordinaire collection from Mind Games.
