Description
パフューマリー (Perfumery) is a game from Japan with players developing perfumes from combining natural and artificial scents. The game includes the use of a Winchester draft, where one player gains cards for themselves, but this also provides cards for the other players.
Players use Perfumer Pieces to perform actions and expand their Top, Middle, and Base notes. Use those notes to make perfume according to the recipe of Perfume Card in hand. The perfumes produced add value to the parfumier's brand. The winner is the player who created the highest end brand.
The mix of drafting, worker placement, and building combos in tableaus make this a heavier game for older players.
