Blockade Extrait De Parfum

Scent Type: Tropical Woody

Key Notes: Mango, Tomato Leaf, Pink Pepper, Lavender, Suede, Oud

Fragrance Description: Checkmate, in a bottle. Blockade opens with a burst of fresh, green mango—juicy, tart, and photorealistic, like fruit just sliced open in a sunlit garden—paired with crushed tomato leaf, pink pepper, and sparkling bergamot. The heart cools with lavender, star anise, and watery florals before the base turns smooth and smoky: suede, oud, amber, and patchouli wrapping everything in quiet luxury. Bright on the surface, deep underneath—this is the tropical party version of the most iconic fresh DNA ever made.

About the Fragrance: Created by master perfumer Christelle Laprade, Blockade is the highest-rated release from Mind Games—the luxury chess-inspired house—with a 4.33 rating from over 1,500 reviews. Fans call it "the best version of the Aventus DNA, by far" and "the best mango fragrance out there": reviewers report compliments 7-9 hours after applying, with the scent clinging to clothes for days. It's the easy, addictive summer signature that works in the heat, the office, and everywhere in between. If you want to smell fresh, expensive, and unlike anyone else, this is the move in the 3.4 oz extrait de parfum size.

Bonus: Arrives brand new and sealed—authentic, untouched, and ready to wear.
