Game of Spades Black Sapphire

Inspired by Ex Nihilo Blue Talisman Extrait Concentration: Parfum Season: All Fragrance Notes: Top: juicy pear, bergamot, mandarin orange, and fresh ginger Heart: orange blossom and georgywood Base: musk, ambrofix, akigalawood, and cedar Overview: Black Sapphire opens with a bright, luminous burst of juicy pear, bergamot, mandarin, and fresh ginger -- clean and citrusy-fruity with a playful energy that never goes syrupy. The heart blooms into orange blossom and georgywood, adding a solar floral warmth that keeps things polished and refined rather than sweet or heavy. The base settles into ambrofix, akigalawood, cedar, and musk -- modern, woody, and skin-close with a soft ambery trail that lingers effortlessly. It shares the exact note pyramid with the Blue Talisman Extrait, and in parfum concentration delivers noticeably more depth and longevity than you'd expect at this price. Genuinely unisex, four-season versatile, ideal for office through evening. Longevity runs 8 to 10 hours. If Blue Talisman Extrait has been on your radar but the Ex Nihilo price tag has not, this is the most direct entry point available.
