Jo Milano Game of Spades Full House Refresh (Retail Bottle)
Game of Spades Full House Refresh by Jo Milano Paris is a unisex Extrait de Parfum launched in August 2026. A refreshed take on the original Full House, this version introduces a brighter, fruitier, and cleaner personality while maintaining the sweet, rich depth associated with the fragrance.
The opening immediately feels crisp and energetic. Calabrian bergamot provides sparkling citrus freshness while cucumber and watermelon create a juicy, watery effect. Nutmeg and ginger add a subtle spicy kick, keeping the fruity freshness from becoming overly sweet.
As the fragrance develops, jasmine and violet introduce a smooth floral character before giving way to a much richer gourmand side. Bourbon vanilla, caramel, and tonka bean create a creamy, warm sweetness that contrasts beautifully with the fresh opening.
The drydown becomes deeper and more sophisticated. Ambergris and amber seeds provide warmth and diffusion, while incense and guaiac wood introduce smoky, woody depth. White musk finishes the composition with a clean, smooth softness that helps balance the sweeter elements.
