The Game Davidoff 2013 Eau de Toilette

This is the slogan of the men's fragrance The Game from the cigar empire of Zino Davidoff.

It is certainly an art to create a fragrant accessory for a tobacco company. Only Zino Davidoff perfectly reflects the older gentleman in a leather armchair with a luxury Davidoff cigar in his mouth, as tobacco is also included here.
But what other fragrance notes suit the Davidoff brand?

Zino Davidoff was not only a lover of the finest tobacco, he was generally a fan of luxury goods and was widely known as a connoisseur. Fragrances like Good Life and Relax reflect this...

Now to The Game:
When one considers the idea of enjoyment and luxury in a modern light and asks: "What does that mean today?" it leads to simply celebrating relaxedly with friends, enjoying, having fun, spending money, and of course, thrill.

We have now arrived at The Game... It brings the Davidoff brand into the new millennium, as the old classics unfortunately no longer make a sufficient impact, and here marketing must respond. Even though it pains me to part with old treasures.

On the advertisement poster, we see a city at night with many lights and a happy couple enjoying an evening at the casino... The color black promises many secrets... of the night and of the fragrance...

The packaging, also in black, is printed with the outlines of stacked chips...

The bottle, extraordinary, also in black, is stacked into a large pile of chips. With this fragrance, many possibilities are open to us...

The new The Game, I immediately thought of the discontinued Game from 2005, but it fits the campaign. The marketing and the fragrance capture the spirit of the times: mystery, fun, party, curiosity, seduction, desire, and of course, the game, the uncertain.

I just sprayed it on and I smell precious woods, with a warm-sweet and mysterious note. The sweet-bitter Gin Fizz in the fragrance reflects the drink of the night. For me, the juniper accord is particularly exciting. I have hardly perceived it as intensely and uniquely in other fragrances as in The Game. It is warm, spicy, mysterious, and unique.

I am curious what The Game will reveal during my next party night... How will the chips fall?
