Wear Check Please first, decide later
This is Mind Games Check Please, a perfume by Mind Games, offered here as a sample. We have no note list on record for it, so we describe nothing we cannot back up.

How it unfolds
-
No pyramid here
For Mind Games Check Please no note list is on record with us. We only print notes we can trace to a source, so this page names none; wear it and judge. A paper strip shows the outline, skin shows the detail. Notes on a list are a map, and what you notice on your own skin is the territory.

Let us know
This sample is listed on request, which means it is not filled yet. Use the form on this page to let us know you would like Check Please, and we note it. Try it on a normal day, not only on a special one, to see whether it fits your routine.
-
The sample itself
Your sample of Mind Games Check Please is a decant: the perfume is taken from the original bottle by FragranceGems and filled into a glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml. The vial carries our own label. Pick the small vial if you only want to know whether you like it, and a larger one if you want to live with it for a while.
Testing it
How to test it, for whom and why
How to test it
Our data does not say whether Mind Games Check Please is meant for warm or cold days, so test it in both if you can. Leave other perfumes off that day, so nothing interferes. Test it on skin and not only on paper.
Who it is for
We hold no data on who Check Please is meant for, so we do not label it. A label like that is a hint, not a rule: wear what suits you. It suits people who like to put a few scents side by side over a week. People who tire of scents quickly do well with small sizes.
Why try Mind Games Check Please as a sample first
Choosing a bottle unsmelled is a gamble, and a decant takes the gamble out of it. The decant is filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle and labelled by us. Mind Games is not involved, and it is not an official brand sample.

Frequently asked
Is this the same perfume as the full bottle?
Yes. The liquid is taken from the original bottle of Mind Games Check Please and filled into a glass spray vial by FragranceGems. The vial carries our own label, so it is a decant and not a sample made by the brand.
Why does this page list no notes?
No note list is on record with us for Mind Games Check Please, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
Can I try Check Please next to other samples?
Yes, and it helps. Wear one perfume per day, or one per arm at most, so the scents do not blur. Short notes after each wearing make the choice easier.
The brand
About Mind Games
Mind Games takes its vocabulary from chess: every perfume is an 'aromatic movement' named after a move or an idea from the game, from French Defense to Double Attack. Creators Alex and Mariana Shalbaf work with the master perfumers of the fragrance house Symrise, and the perfumes described in this text are Extrait de Parfum. The names give no hint of the smell, mango, cherry, chocolate, coffee, so the sensible opening move is a few 10 ml decants.

I really appreciate that I found a shop that has a wide range of authentic perfumes,fast delivery,great communication and very good prices. Thanks for everything!
Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
