A scent of calculated elegance and quiet power, Castling by Mind Games draws inspiration from the strategic shift in chess where protection and opportunity align. Launched in 2022 and composed by Christelle Laprade, this unisex extrait de parfum is a graceful fusion of fluid movement and grounded strength.
The opening captures a breath of sea air with crisp fig leaf, marine salt, and sparkling bergamot—refreshing and modern. At its heart, delicate florals unfold—velvety iris, ethereal lotus, and soft freesia—blending serenity with luminous depth. The base is a tranquil yet resonant blend of creamy sandalwood, warm vanilla, whispering musk, and earthy Madagascar vetiver, wrapped in subtle woody undertones.
Castling is crafted for the quiet strategist—for those who understand that true power lies not in force, but in the elegance of well-timed moves and unshakable poise.
