Grandmaster is a warm, floral, gourmand scent created for Men and Women in 2022 by perfumer Alexandra Carlin.
Review
This scent is perfect for those looking for a refined and sophisticated Coffee scent. Black Currant and Rose bring a sweet softness that smoothly transforms in warmth with resins and Kona Coffee. It is safe for the office, but will work best for any casual or formal occasion outside the office. It will work best in the colder weather, and, while becoming soft and intimate, it will last. It is comparable to Montale’s Intense Cafe.
Inspiration
Grandmaster is one of the highest achievements awarded in the world of Chess. With this Grandmaster, the Coffee essence has reached perfection. A refined exterior holds a powerful agent, keeping those they encounter alert and intrigued.
Notes
This scent begins with a soft burst of Black Currant blended with Rose Water. A floral bouquet of Peony, Rose, and Violet create a softness as the darker notes begin to set it. A subtle spiciness ensues as Kona Coffee blends with resinous Myrrh and smoky Incense. A Panettone accord brings back a subtle sweetness as Ebony Woods set in, keeping the spice tones thriving, and helping this scent to last.
