Mind Games Lionora Extrait

Description

Mind Games Lionora Extrait is a fruity floral extrait de parfum from perfumer Christelle Laprade, and the counterpart to sister scent Vieri within the house's love-story concept. Passionfruit, tonka bean, and ginger open the fragrance with real juiciness, a heart of apricot, freesia, and osmanthus adds a honeyed, slightly animalic floral note, and a base of lactones, tonka bean, sandalwood, and musk closes it into something soft and creamy. It's built to feel indulgent without turning cloying: fruit and florals doing the work, sandalwood keeping it grounded.

Scent Character

• Sweet: 50%
• Woody: 21%
• Floral: 14%
• Spicy: 14%

Translation: A gourmand-fruity fragrance more than a floral one. The passionfruit and tonka carry the identity, with osmanthus and sandalwood rounding it out rather than leading.
