Gambit by Mind Games

Gambit by Mind Games is a unisex Extrait de Parfum that blends aromatic lavender, assertive spices, fresh florals, earthy patchouli, creamy sandalwood, and warm amber woods. Released in 2023 and created by perfumer Carlos Viñals, this aromatic fougère fragrance is presented in a 3.4 oz / 100 ml spray bottle. Mind Games describes Gambit as a modern, confident composition that contrasts soft geranium and lavender with clove, cardamom, patchouli, sandalwood, and Ambrostar.

The fragrance opens with crisp petitgrain, aromatic lavender, and warm clove. Petitgrain adds a fresh citrus-green quality, while lavender provides a smooth herbal character and clove introduces a dry, fiery spice.

Its heart combines cardamom with Madagascar geranium and mimosa absolute. Cardamom contributes warm aromatic spice, geranium adds a fresh green-floral quality, and mimosa brings a softly sweet, powdery floral dimension.

The drydown settles into earthy patchouli, Sandalwood Drêches, and Ambrostar. Sandalwood gives the fragrance a smooth woody foundation, while Ambrostar adds radiant amber warmth and lasting depth.

Gambit has an aromatic, woody, warm-spicy, lavender, floral, earthy, powdery, and amber scent profile. It is suitable for everyday wear, office settings, evenings, date nights, formal occasions, and cooler spring, fall, or winter weather.
