Dutch Card House/Diamon are releasing a new project on Kickstarter at the end of the month. It's a scented deck of cards house in a unique perfume bottle. While this won't be the first scented deck (has anyone had the odd experience of smelling Fried Chicken by MPC, for example?), it is an interesting approach and it is objectively quite glamorous. This isn't a project for me, but I am sure many will find it appealing. My only gripe here is that the Ace of Spades design looks to be from a different card project entirely, compared to the provided courts. It's the realism vs lineart comparison that I can't seem to make work in my brain.

Re: Hammam Scented Playing Cards - Dutch Card House/Diamon
That ace looks like it is from a completely different deck aesthetically, so fully agree there bacon.
Seems nice enough but not enough to draw me in. Should be a good pickup for others though.

Re: Hammam Scented Playing Cards - Dutch Card House/Diamon
Jannieke has gone to a lot of trouble although you will read that there is really only one truly scented card in the deck which pervades the other cards
A fancy tuck and nice backs but as with some of the other Dutch Card House decks - the courts are not my style
The price with shipping is that of expensive perfume!

Love the packaging and tuck, like the card backs, adore that they actually created a perfume as well, but don't feel either the jokers or courts match the packaging, tucks, and backs. So, I'm out.
