Checkmate

Cardamon, lemon and leather white pepper

If this was a chess game people would come back to chat and see how it developed...as a perfume, the cardamon dominates and there's a lemony/leathery/white pepper powdery complexion in the background...and some wood. It has personality, although it's serene...not a 'look at me scent'. After this, I might try the Frapin family's cognac...

Checkmate indeed

New to Frapin but likely to be back. My preferred combination of citrus top notes with leather/woody heart and base notes. Long lasting with decent sillage.
