Decided to explore The House Of Mind Games , figured I start it off with Playmate , Check Please Arriving Tomorrow

Wearing the above, second scent in the new Afnan sample pack I picked up. As others have commented, its light, refreshing, and you definitely pick up the pear note - at least in the first hour. I found it a little harsh and synthetic - straight off the top, but it settled down after 10mins or so, finding its one of those that has definitely grown on me. I'm also starting to pick up a hint of of cedar and musk the longer its on my skin, though I can't detect some of the other listed notes - e.g. the amber and vanilla. Tbf, that might just be a lack of discernment on my part......... I've seen some reviews indicating it leans very feminine, I think it does to an extent in the opening stages, where the sweetness is more prominent, after that, I've found it more green/woody tbh, and not particularly feminine, rather - nicely balanced. Not getting the sense its big in terms of projection, and I'll have to see how it lasts, as I've seen wildly mixed reviews on that front.

Got hold of a sample today @Brett Sutton you were spot-on brother - what a delightful scent! The grapefr, then leaningi nto the apricot, just gorgeous.
