How it unfolds
-
An honest gap
Our record for Kingside stops at brand and name. Notes, families and seasons are left out here because we cannot verify them. Give it time to settle before you judge it. Your own nose gets used to a scent quickly, so ask someone near you what they notice.
-
Not on the shelf yet
Mind Games Kingside is listed so that you can ask for it. Send the form on this page and your interest is noted; we do not name a date. Notes on a list are a map, and what you notice on your own skin is the territory. Smell it right after applying and again later in the day, because the first minutes rarely tell the whole story.

About the decant
Mind Games Kingside comes as 2, 5 or 10 ml in a glass spray vial, filled by FragranceGems from the original bottle. It is labelled by us and not by the brand. A spray vial lets you apply it the way you would from the bottle, which a dab-on tube does not.
Testing it
How to test it, for whom and why
How to test it
For Mind Games Kingside we hold no season or occasion data, so try it in more than one setting. Leave other perfumes off that day, so nothing interferes. Keep the rest of the vial for a second and third try in other weather.
Who it is for
Whether Mind Games Kingside is marketed to men, women or everyone is not in our record; wear it if you enjoy it. The sample is for anyone who wants to know a perfume before owning it. If Mind Games is new to you, a small vial is a calm way to get acquainted.
Why try Mind Games Kingside as a sample first
Trying before owning saves shelf space and regret. To be clear, this is not an official brand sample. FragranceGems decants it from the original bottle and puts its own label on the vial; Mind Games plays no role.

Frequently asked
What does the sample look like?
It is a small glass spray vial of 2, 5 or 10 ml with our own label on it. It sprays like a bottle, so you apply Kingside the way you normally would.
Why does this page list no notes?
No note list is on record with us for Mind Games Kingside, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
Will Kingside be the same on me as on someone else?
Probably not exactly. Skin, weather and the amount you apply all change how a perfume comes across, which is the reason to wear Mind Games Kingside yourself before deciding.

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.
