A tribute to the muse of strategy and seduction, Caïssa by Mind Games is a bold and elegant extrait de parfum that plays with contrasts—floral softness against spicy intrigue, comfort against surprise. Launched in 2022 and crafted by perfumer David Apel, this unisex fragrance evokes the poised tension and beauty of a perfect chess move.
The opening strikes with the unexpected: fougassette, pink pepper, cardamom, and a touch of black licorice—aromatic, daring, and irresistibly original. The heart softens into a lush floral trio of gardenia, Egyptian jasmine, and Madagascar ylang-ylang, blooming with sensual radiance. In the drydown, musk and ambrocenide intertwine with dark cacao, creating a finish that is silky, mysterious, and endlessly alluring.
Caïssa is made for the elegant tactician—for those who seduce with intellect, express with nuance, and leave a lasting impression with every step.
