Double Attack
Double Attack by Mind Games is an unisex extrait de parfum from 2022 in the luxury price tier. It opens with bitter orange, pimento and pink pepper, moves into cinnamon and geranium and dries down to chocolate, vanilla, vetiver and mysore sandalwood. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bitter Orange Marmalade without the sugar. Sour and slightly medicinal.
- Pimento Allspice — clove, cinnamon and nutmeg at once. Hot and rounded.
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
Heart
- Cinnamon Sweet heat. Reads festive, sometimes to a fault.
- Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
Dry-down
- Chocolate Sweet, dusty and rich. Can go milk-bar or dark-and-bitter.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Mysore Sandalwood The legendary Indian sandalwood. Richer and butterier than any substitute.
