Mind Games Counterplay disrupts the ordinary, inspired by the scent of a sunlit, ripe cantaloupe and the artistry of chess. The fragrance begins with a juicy burst of melon, guava, and banana, evoking summery joy. Its heart glows with honeyed osmanthus, creamy ylang-ylang, and orange blossom, adding lush floral warmth to the fruity opening. The drydown forms a dynamic, sophisticated base—sandalwood, patchouli, and pink pepper. Perfumer Christelle Laprade played with melon s playful allure, weaving sensual layers that add dimension, intensity, and elevate a simple accord, echoing the increased stakes of a tactical game. Counterplay s floral, woody, and fruity blend captures the feeling of seizing momentum with every move.
