Davidoff The Game ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 27 December 2012 8 Comments

Davidoff The Game

Davidoff will launch Davidoff The Game, a new woody aromatic fragrance for men:

Never underestimate the stakes.

Always play fair.

Master the rules and leave nothing to chance.

Because life is a game and the winner takes it all.

The Game was developed by perfumer Bernard Ellena; notes include gin fizz accord (juniper berry), iris, precious woods and blackwood.

Davidoff The Game will be available in 100 ml Eau de Toilette.

(via press release)

    Iris, gin fizz, blackwood and (?) precious woods (I bet they’re synthetic!) I think I’m not interested, even by the iris.
    And the bottle looks like a pile of casino tokens, right?

      Yep, or poker chips, however you want to look at it.

    The notes sound lovely. On the other hand, I associate poker chips either with the smell of beer and pizza (from games between a bunch of buddies playing in the home of one of them), or (the much much worse) smell of stale cigarettes, cold sweat and tacky air freshner from games at casinos.

      I think they want you to imagine a higher-end, luxury sort of poker 🙂

    The bottle seems like a One Million wannabe. I think the notes have potential, though! I’d love to smell iris, woods, and juniper on a guy.
