The Gambler
The Gambler
When I was a kid my dad played The Gambler by Kenny Rogers all the time. I didn’t think much of it then and honestly, I didn’t even like it. As I grew older the song stuck with me. Its story, its lesson and the quiet wisdom behind it became clearer. Without ever sitting me down to explain, my dad taught me something valuable through that song.
The Gambler is about those lessons we don’t realize we’re learning until years later. It’s about the risks we take, the wisdom we gather along the way and the moments that shape us, often in ways we don’t see until long after. I didn’t know it at the time, but my father passed something down through that song. And maybe one day, without meaning to, I’ll do the same for my son.

The Gambler is absolutely brilliant juice and I am so glad I've found it and Veigel Perfumes. It's this great blend of booze, leather, wood, smoke and this super satisfying dry down. Not too sweet, not too fresh, just really enjoyable.
I ordered a 10ml of this, not expecting much because the inspo behind this fragrance isn't my jam, but oh boy, this is iNCREDIBLE! I just love it and was blown away by how yummy it is. It's sweet, ambery, a little smoky and deep. I instantly went and bought the full bottle and now I own this one and Tobaccucino. I will also be buying Crystalline when it's available, also gorgeous.
Absolutely love this one. The smoke, the leather, the whiskey! Perfectly blended. This is everything I wanted from Zoologists Rhino and more.
