Mind Games
Ruy Lopez Mind Games
Ruy Lopez captivates as a distinctive and enthralling fragrance, designed for inquisitive visionaries. Harmoniously blending black tea and exotic spices with tantalizing undertones of succulent black cherry, supple leather, and aged oakwood, this perfume scent exudes an air of inscrutable sophistication. Celestial whispers of rose and davana bestow an added layer of opulence and refinement, weaving together an olfactory tapestry that is simultaneously reminiscent of the familiar, yet undeniably extraordinary. "Ruy Lopez paints a picture of dark and mysterious sophistication. Black Tea leads the fragrance with kisses of black pepper and cherry, delivering a deep, wine-like fruitiness with a hint of spice. A thread of patchouli and notes of dark plum come together along with rich leather to wrap the fragrance in an aura of boozy, elegant suede." -Christelle Laprade, Perfumer.
