A Partnership to Celebrate
In a statement that reflects the excitement of this collaborative effort, Alex Shalbaf, the founder and CEO of MIND GAMES, expressed how meaningful the partnership with Selfridges is for the brand. He noted, "Selfridges has long been a leader in bringing forward-thinking, luxury experiences to clients, and we are thrilled to introduce Playmate and Check Please in such an iconic space.

The Fragrance Details
Playmate
Playmate is designed to captivate and intrigue with its refreshing opening notes of sweet Italian lemon and creamy coconut milk. Its heart features a floral medley of water lily, jasmine, and tiare flower, while the base contains warm notes of musk, vanilla bean, and golden amber, making it an addictive scent tailored for those who love the thrill of connection. The MSRP for Playmate will be $395 (US) / £270 (UK).
Check Please
On the other hand, Check Please offers an alluring balance of sophistication and charm. Its top notes include green apple, nougat, and hazelnut, leading into a heart that encompasses black plum, Bulgarian rose, and cinnamon bark. The fragrance is luxuriously anchored by oak barrel, vanilla bourbon, and amber, culminating in a bold and memorable scent. Like Playmate, Check Please is priced at $395 (US) / £270 (UK).
Creative Inspiration
Creative Director Mariana Shalbaf emphasized that these fragrances embody MIND GAMES' spirit - daring, sophisticated, and addictive. The designs encourage playfulness and exploration, making them perfect for those seeking unique sensory experiences.
MIND GAMES emerged from the artistic complexities of fragrance and the strategic elegance of chess, transforming olfactory artistry into an immersive experience. Founded in 2022, the brand has quickly expanded into various fragrance lines and recently introduced a home collection that complements its identity.
With accolades such as Packaging of the Year from The Fragrance Foundation and recognition from Men's Health in their 2025 Grooming Awards, MIND GAMES is revolutionizing modern perfumery through exceptional storytelling and craftsmanship. The fragrances will be available at exclusive retailers such as Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, and of course, Selfridges.
