About Mind Games: French Defense (U) Type
What is the difference between the old edition and new edition oils?
The original manufacturer of some of our oils raised their prices by a large amount recently but we were able to find oils that are the same or better quality from different manufacturers.
We added these same oils from the new manufacturer at lower prices, and kept the original higher priced oils also with the words “OLD EDITION” added to the title of the oil.
Some customers like the new editions better, and other people like the old edition oil most. The strength and quality is the same, but there may be subtle differences in the scent.
We offer both so that you can choose the one that is best for you.
This fragrance oil captures the strategic, sophisticated, and intoxicating spirit of French Defense by Mind Games. It is built on a rich blend of succulent black cherry, smooth liqueur, and sophisticated woods, creating a dark, intellectual, and deeply captivating profile that balances fruity sweetness with smooth velvet textures.
