French Blockade is a truly seductive perfume that focuses on a fascinating, dark cherry note. From the first application, you can feel the warmth of this ripe cherry that is neither too sweet nor too heavy and has an amazing depth. What makes this fragrance stand out is the way it develops over time - the initial fruitiness gradually transforms into an increasingly sensual and intense note that is perfect for the colder months.

French Blockade is the ideal choice for winter evenings. The warm, dark cherry unfolds gently as the composition melts into the skin, creating a cozy yet seductive aura. This fragrance evokes images of cozy evenings in front of the fireplace or stylish candlelight dinners.

The longevity is above average: the fragrance lasts for hours on the skin without losing much of its intensity. The sillage is also very good - the fragrance remains present without ever being overpowering. French Blockade manages to maintain the perfect balance: It is a fragrance that stands out without dominating and that lasts a long time without fading into the background.

Overall, French Blockade is an incredibly seductive fragrance that is perfect for special moments. Its sensual, warm cherry note makes it the ideal choice for dates where you want to impress with a fragrance that is subtle yet captivating. If you are looking for an elegant and intense perfume for winter, you will definitely find it here.

Blockade by Mind Games captivated me from the first application and immediately cast a spell over me. This perfume combines incredible complexity with a refreshingly clean, green mango scent that is both exceptional and long-lasting.

What makes Blockade stand out for me is the present mango note, which is not only fruity, but also surprisingly green and fresh. This special combination gives the fragrance a striking liveliness that is immediately noticeable, both to yourself and to those around you.
From the very first spray, this note unfolds without being too dominant and blends harmoniously with the other nuances of the perfume. The mango remains at the heart of the fragrance and surprises above all with its extraordinary longevity. Even after several hours, it is still easily perceptible and ensures that the fragrance retains its freshness and dynamism.

The sillage is very good: the fragrance has a perceptible but not intrusive projection. It leaves behind a pleasantly fresh cloud of fragrance that subtly fills the room without being too heavy. As I said, the longevity leaves nothing to be desired. On my skin, it easily lasts the whole day without fading or losing intensity.

All in all, Blockade by Mind Games is an exceptional perfume for all those who are looking for a unique, green-fresh mango fragrance that impresses with both its longevity and its sillage. This perfume manages to be effortlessly fresh, elegant and long-lasting at the same time - a rare combination that should delight any perfume lover.

Burlington 1819 is a refreshing, lively fragrance that perfectly suits the modern gentleman. The opening consists of a sharp and juicy combination of grapefruit, lime, mandarin and bitter orange, complemented by a subtle note of mint and ginger.

The mint remains pleasantly restrained and does not come to the fore, while the ginger is much more prominent. A hint of soft oakmoss and dry tobacco is also perceptible. When applied to the skin, the ginger notes intensify together with the citrus fruits, creating a thoroughly fresh feeling of well-being without being too overpowering or too much of a good thing.

Overall, I think the fragrance is a successful composition, which I would most likely wear on less warm summer days or in the afternoon/evening. For hotter days, I can only recommend Oceania or Elysium.
