Asmodee Editions will release Queen Games’ fragrance design game
Parfum, from Marcel and Marco (“MM”), the designers of
Fresco (see "
'Kingdom Builder' and 'Fresco' Big Box Games"). Release is planned for late Q2.
Set during the 18th Century in the southern French town of Grass in Provence, players take the role of master perfumers. The competing perfumers attempt to distill precious essences and create unique perfumes from various ingredients to meet the specific needs of various wealthy clients. The players use the Aroma dice to obtain the right fragrance notes to create specific perfumes. The game includes a double-sided game board to accommodate 2/4 or 3 player games.
The box contains 42 fragrance tiles, 15 essence dice, 25 customers, 25 fountain tiles, 26 wooden bottles, 7 alarm clocks, 4 round player figures, 4 player tableaus, a closing time tile, a double sided game board, a bag, and a rulebook. The game is for 2-4 players, ages 8 and up, and plays in 45 minutes. MSRP is $49.99.
