SOTD: Blockade x Gambit

I’m heading to a Realtor networking event today — a mix of presentations, quick conversations, and a quiz segment I’ll be leading. The vibe I’m going for: composed, confident, and memorable without being overpowering.

For that, I’m wearing Blockade layered with Gambit — two fragrances that, within the Mind Games collection, are essentially soulmates. Blockade represents resilience and grounded authority — dark woods, spice, and amber depth that command quiet respect. Gambit, on the other hand, was designed as its natural counterpoint — smooth, charismatic, and strategic. It softens the intensity of Blockade while amplifying its sophistication.

Together, they feel like a dialogue between power and poise — the perfect pairing when you want presence without volume.

Question for the group:

When you’re in a professional or social setting where first impressions matter, do you reach for something dark and grounded like this, or do you prefer to keep things fresh and approachable?
