Knight's Tour
Knight's Tour by Mind Games is a masculine-leaning extrait de parfum from 2026 in the luxury price tier. It opens with citron, nutmeg, saffron and ginger, moves into cedarwood, lavender and gardenia and dries down to benzoin, vetiver, oakmoss and cashmeran. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Citron Thick-skinned citrus, more zest than juice. Waxy and bright.
- Nutmeg Warm, woody and slightly sweet. Cosy without being gourmand.
- Saffron Leathery, medicinal and slightly metallic. The signature of modern niche.
- Ginger Warm, zesty and slightly soapy. Bridges citrus and spice.
Heart
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Lavender Herbal, clean, slightly medicinal. Barbershop in one note.
- Gardenia Creamy white floral with a mushroomy edge. Lush and old-Hollywood.
Dry-down
- Benzoin Sweet balsamic resin. Vanilla-adjacent but drier.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
- Cashmeran Musky, woody and slightly spicy. Velvety and very persistent.
